Bananagrams

Players draw letter tiles and race to arrange them into a connected grid of words faster than their opponents. Each player builds an independent crossword from a shared pool of tiles, adding and rearranging letters as new tiles are taken when a player runs out. Play continues until the common bunch of tiles is exhausted and one player completes a valid word grid; variants provide shorter or solo play options. The game requires no board, pencil, or scorekeeping and typically plays in short rounds.
