Bananagrams Game

We love this game. Whenever we have company over, or go traveling, this game is sitting on a table at night. It always turns very competitive, which I never fail to find surprising, as everyone starts seeing the words and possibilities as the game picks up speed. Lots of trash talk and promises of a "rematch" are always how the evening ends. Big fun with young and old couples, and my kids are starting to take interest, too... which is banana-rific!!

Bananagrams are great for this scrabble lover. This is a quick game, so you can play many times, as compared to Scrabble, at a sitting. I have even played it in restaurants while awaiting dinner. For a greater challenge, I prefer to play it with words of a minimum of three letters, rather than two.

I came across this product through Amazon's recommendations, and decided to give it a shot. Now my entire family is hooked and we've given away our original two sets to friends who fell in love with it, too. I'm taking one with me to college and my parents have two at home, in case any of their friends gets hooked and wants one for themselves! Two thumbs WAY WAY up :D

This is a terrific game you can play solo or with a group. It's more fun than scrabble with options to change letter tiles after they are placed so you can make and change words as you play, essentially playing your own scrabble with others. Its lots of fun and Ive sent a few games to friends and family who also love it. Warning: it may be addicting.

People of all ages can play this together if you bend the rules a bit. For the youngest (7year old) player, we had her spell words without worrying about the letters intersecting. I've even made a solitaire game out of it by starting out with the 21 tiles and selecting groups of seven each turn until the tiles are used up. Lots of ways to play. The zippered banana case is cute and convenient. Have fun!
