Finally...a game for all of us!

After all this time, this family has finally found a game that wont cause tears. No fight in a box tonight. This wonderful game is peeled from a banana! After your done playing it, rather than putting it back on the shelf, you can put it right back with the other Chiquitas! God only knows why it comes in the shape of a banana, but it makes me laugh. Somehow this game has managed to beat out other expensive shoot-em-up games and Sims alike.  Surely a miracle right there.  Before the bus or right after dinner, Bananagrams is peeled from it's handy dandy yellow case and within 10 minutes, it's done. No bloodshed, no tears, no idle threats. As we all try to sneak in proper names or in my case, made up words, at least we can feel good using our brains for a short while. The best thing is that unlike Scrabble, there are no two hour waits for your opponent to get their act in gear and make a word. There's no annoying sound of your opponent shifting tiles and smiling as they irritate you. Just happy word-making. Speed is key here and in this house, we have lots of that.  Bar none, this has been the best 14 bucks I have spent for a family game-night miracle. Skip Game-Stop this time around. This low tech toy will supply you with 100% of your RDA of Bananagram fun.
