Since Scrabble was invented in 1931 (as Lexico), if it was ever (?) published without a copyright notice before 1977, then it falls into the public domain. Scrabulous could continue w/o violating rights to the game since the board layout and tile distribution can only be protected by copyright (a patent, if any were filed, would have expired long ago - and then the work would have entered the public domain automatically - copyrighted or not).
