Bananagrams is a blast. It's similar to Scrabble, but everyone works their own board, so that no one is preparing to use all their tiles to make an amazing word just to have someone else come along and mess it up with "za".

There is still plenty of competition, as everyone races to complete their own board before everyone else. There's the moment of triumph as you're the first one to finish and you yell "Bananas!", and then the crushing moment when someone looks over your board and realizes you misspelled a word.

The standard game is a lot of fun, but with several people we find it easier to play the "Banana Smoothie" version. There's also a version which allows for timed play and a solitaire version, and even a game to play in a restaurant while waiting for service. (It's a very portable banana, and all you need is a flat surface.)

We picked up a double banana because now we've got too many people to play with just one banana. (Wait, that doesn't sound quite right.) The double version has two sets of tiles, so you can take out one set if you've only got a few people. We've marked one of the two sets with nail polish so that when we play with both, we can split (no pun intended) them back up again when we're done.

5.0 out of 5 stars Bananagrams but twice the fun!, July 25, 2009

We found out about bananagrams from a friend of ours. ever since that its been a big hit for our family. We bought the jumbo set, which is two bananas. When you combine the tiles it makes the pile bigger which creates a longer and more complex game. Its a little more challenging because you get twice the tiles and have to make a bigger crossword.

This is an interesting, nicely short game that is portable and can be played anywhere in a few minutes. It's a refreshing change for anyone who likes the concept of crossword puzzles and word games but doesn't have time or the inclination to sit for hours to play a game. Bananagrams can be played quickly and it's a great way to pass time. It doesn't have a thick manual of complicated rules so you can get right in and play. I recommend it for any age, from children learning to read on up to adults. It's educational and fun at the same time. The plastic tiles come in a sturdy cloth banana peel with a zipper.
