>From a legal point of view, what's dubious is when the
consumer becomes confused because of similarities in
name, graphics, branding and gameplay. E-Scrabble
would probably have survived unscathed if it had been
called "Word-Smith" or something that didn't include
the world Scrabble.

If you ever end up buying Anti-Monopoly for your kids
(in the misbeggotten belief that it'll be the same
good fun as the original), the rationale behind this
becomes clear.
