What We're Looking For

Feature	Feedback
Core Requirements
Git hygiene	Good git hygiene.
Comprehension questions	Check, good that you were able to figure out input and CSV files, nicely done!
General
score calculates score, has appropriate params and return value	Well done, good use of the JS object as a hash.
highestScoreFrom calculates highest scoring word, has appropriate params and return value	Good clean if statements
Player object
Has name and plays properties	Check
Has play, totalScore, hasWon functions	Nice use of the tiles to check to see if the user could play it. That might be a good case for a helper method.
Has highestScoringWord and highestWordScore functions	You could use highestWordScore in the highestScoringWord function.
TileBag	Nice work setting up the Tilebag although maybe, startGame could be a constructor instead?
Overall	You could have dropped .prototype for Scrabble because you'll only ever need 1 Scrabble object. Think of it like a set of class methods. I like all the testing you put into it. It shows good practices. Nice!
