The Scrabulous app was taken down from Facebook this summer after Hasbro sued the brothers, who live in Calcutta. While Hasbro holds the domestic rights, Mattel, the holder of Scrabble’s international rights, filed suit against the brothers in India in last February. Neither Hasbro nor the Agarwallas offered any explanation for why the suit being rescinded. Also, there was no word on when or if Scrabulous will return to Facebook.
