Description

Anagram: The Ingenious Game of Juggling Words is a fast-paced and exciting game that's perfect for anyone who loves playing with words. Designed by Sara Finch and Leslie Scott, this game has been a favorite among word game enthusiasts since its publication in 1991. With easy-to-learn rules, it's accessible to players of all ages, from 8 and up, and can be enjoyed by a group of 2 to 8 players. The game is all about speed and quick thinking, as players compete to collect as many words as possible by using new letters as they are revealed or by spotting anagrams and poaching their opponents' words. The gameplay is simple yet thrilling, with players taking turns turning over letter tiles and racing to spot words that can be made from the revealed letters. The twist is that you can also steal words from other players by making an anagram of their word or adding extra letters to create a new one. With no waiting around for others to make their moves, the game is constantly moving and fortunes can change right up to the end. After a mere 20 minutes of playtime, the player with the most words in their possession wins, making Anagram a great choice for a quick and entertaining game night with friends and family. Whether you're a word game enthusiast or just looking for a fun and challenging game, Anagram is sure to deliver.
