Monkey around with this fun word game

Bananas … split!

If you’ve tired of Scrabble or Boggle, there’s a new word game in town.

Bananagrams is like traditional Scrabble, but without the board. Players work independently, forming words that build off of each other using their own set of tiles. The goal is to use your letters as quickly as possible and be the first person to finish forming complete words once all the tiles have been doled out, at which point you get to yell out, “Bananas!”

There are other instructions involving banana word play, such as “splitting” and “peeling,” but that lingo is easy to pick up.

Perhaps the best part of all, the game comes in a little yellow banana pouch, perfect for carrying around without worrying about losing any pieces. Well, it wouldn’t be so bad if you happened to lose a Q or a Z.
