The family arrived last night, and after excellent pizza from
Siena's, we busted out the
Bananagrams Game my Mom gave us for Chanukah.
While the game appears to a version of
Scrabble, and was a bit overwhelming at first - we all got into it in a hurry. As far as I comprehend the rules, each player is playing his sequence of letters individually, so game play happens in parallel. This makes it nice and quick.
My Dad has a reputation for kicking butt at games like these, and last night was no exception. Though, it was my
legally blind, 90 year old grandfather, who was most impressive - he managed to keep up with all of us, cranking out words even though just seeing an individual letter was a challenge.
Ahf mir gezogt!.
So yes, the
Bananagrams is a winner - it's a game everyone can get involved in, moves quickly, is portable, and requires almost no setup.
