What it is:
A fast-paced and portable word game that features 144 letter tiles for players to use to make words either horizontally or vertically.
Why we love it:
It's the anagram game that will drive you bananas! Bananagrams is similar to Scrabble, but it's faster and easier to play. The cloth banana pouch contains 144 tiles which are placed face down on any flat surface. The number of players determines how many tiles you take. The players then race to form as many words possible with their own tiles. The simple, simultaneous play lets each person play at their own level, using their tiles to form individual crosswords. The resulting race to grab more tiles and rearrange already-laid letters into new words is fun and addictive.
