sounds like a good move tbh, as someone who plays a lot of Scrabble and Bananagrams there's a reason 80 percent of the time I reach for the latter. The scoring in Scrabble is probably the most annoying part of it - the "meta" that forms around specific placements thanks to 3X scores, the amount of times you will all just sit there in silence trying to find the maximum score instead of having fun

very keen to try an updated Scrabble

also the dictionary being rather small, in almost every game I've played, there will be many common words not in the dictionary, but plenty of obscure words.
