Maven (Scrabble) four-ply simulation then they are not worth doing." As the board value can be evaluated with very high accuracy in Scrabble, unlike games such as Go, deeper simulations are unlikely to change the initial evaluation.) The "pre-endgame" phase works in almost the same way as the "mid-game" phase, except that it is designed to attempt to yield a good end-game situation. The "endgame" phase takes over as soon as there are no tiles left in the bag. In two-player games, this means that the players can now deduce from the initial letter distribution the exact tiles on each other's racks.
Scrabble variants or triplets of numbers that sum up to less than, or exactly 15, respectively. The placement of the pairs or triplets is similar to Scrabble. Triolet means "triplet" in French. Yushino uses number sequences where every number is the last digit of the sum of the previous two. For two number sequences it requires that the numbers are adjacent. Mixmath, a game developed by Wrebbit, also involves placing correct mathematical equations on a board with bonus squares similar to a scrabble board. Scrabble Upwords (originally just named UpWords) is played with 100 letter tiles on a special 10×10 board with
