This clever game is one of the most highly acclaimed board games of recent years, and is the winner of 10 prestigious awards. The Chicago Tribune newspaper picked it as one of its 'Cool' games of 2005; and in 2006, Better Homes and Gardens magazine selected it for inclusion in their Holiday Gift Guide as one of the 4 best games of the year. Anagramania is currently available in two Editions - 'Junior' for 8-12 year-olds, and 'Intermediate' for teens and adults. The game challenges you to solve clues - but with a unique twist! The answer to each clue must be a single-word anagram made from one or more highlighted words embedded in the clue. Here's an example from the Junior Edition:
She felt it just wasn't right
Something that isn't right could be 'wrong', 'incorrect', 'left', etc. However, the correct answer is 'left', because it alone is an anagram of the highlighted word 'felt'. Got it? OK, try this clue from the Intermediate Edition:
He took a sea trip and ran into some marine plunderers
Players compete against each other and the clock in a race to the center of the board. Anagramania Junior Edition offers an enjoyable way for children to expand their vocabulary and improve their language skills, while the Intermediate Edition provides hours of mind-stretching entertainment for family and social get-togethers. By the way, the answer to the Intermediate clue above is 'pirates'.
