BANANAGRAMS | Signature Edition - Amazon Exclusive | Word Game | Ages 7+ | 1-8 Players | 30 Minutes Playing Time

I love this game, it gets your brain working but it's also really fun. It's small so you can take it wherever you go and have fun playing it. It's very fast paced which I like as it really challenges you.

Great little game with different variations on how to play, depending on the time you have. Well made storage bag. The novelty look of the banana appeals to the younger members of the family and encourages them to think of new words. It’s a good buy.

This seems to have become our "default" game as a family now as we all enjoy it so much! My youngest is 10 (and has been playing it since around the age of 7 or 8, with a little help) and my eldest is 22, so it's a good game to bring the whole family together - even my dad, who mostly hates things like board games, seemed to have fun when we got him playing! It's easy to learn the rules and anyone who is literate can play it, including primary aged children if they have a reasonably good vocabulary and can spell.The physical game itself is very nicely made, with tiles which have a very satisfying feel to them (nice and smooth, and they make a satisfying sound when you place them on a hard surface or rustle the bag!), and a very handy and uniquely designed bag they come packaged in, which seems to be well made (my older daughter has now owned her set for about 5 years and the bag is still going strong).It's a great game to take on your travels, as it's fairly small & light, with no excess packaging, and the soft fabric bag squishes into awkward spaces in luggage easily. Just be careful not to lose any tiles!I suppose the only downside is it's not the most sociable game in some respects, as each player tends to be "in their own world" when focused on the game, so you're not really interacting much with each other for a lot of the gameplay, but it at least gets everyone around the table engaged in an activity together, which can be hard enough in itself sometimes! And in fact the low demand for interaction can suit some people, we have some autistic family members who don't always want to be forced into more "full on" social interaction so this is a nice "bridge" activity to get everyone together.When my older daughter left home and took her set with her we bought another one for our youngest, as we missed having the game in the house.

Well packed and well made. The game made a group of strangers laugh and enjoy themselves and good time had by all. I also love the smooth texture of the tiles, they feel very pleasant in the hand.

I love the look and feel of these tiles - bright and attractive for young players. Using different colours for vowels and letters often reversed is a super idea. The combo letter tiles is great for reinforcing sounds represented by two letters. The little white notch at the bottom of each tile helps young children keep the letter facing the correct way up. Unfortunately my set had one letter inserted the wrong way into the tile. So the letter n looked like a u on a blue tile. Confusing! I wonder is there a way for me to remove it and turn it round? Or can I get a single tile replacement?

Great word game suitable for all ages. Small and portable to take on holiday too. Easy rules to follow.

We played this game so much over the Xmas period. It’s just so addictive and so much fun. I fact it was so great that I’ve ordered another one for myself.This word game can be played in a number of ways and is also suitable for one player. The tiles are really lovely and tactile too and make a lovely sound when mixing them up.

This is a great fun, educational game. The kids don't even realise that it's helping with their literacy, they just enjoy the competition! The banana design is fun and it's the perfect size to contain all the letter tiles. It's great value for money special when compared to its rival, Scrabble!
