User Ratings and Reviews

4 Stars set
This is a good game for all ages. I play it with my 7 yr old daughter and she loves it but I also play it with other adults. It is a fun game.

5 Stars Set, only if you enjoy your intellegence!
This game is fantastic. The instructions are pretty clear although the game uses a way of thinking most are not used to. A little slow at first as you need to check with others to see if you actually got a ’set’, but after that, it is so much fun!!!!

Potentially educational.

Fantastic for young developing minds, an ‘outside of the box’ kind of game.

5 Stars Not for everyone, but I love it!
If you’re visually-oriented or good at “spacial reasoning,” this game will likely be loads of fun for you. If your brain is wired such that you get headaches when thinking through those questions like “if this gear turns clockwise and this gear turns counter-clockwise, which way does this gear over here turn?,” then you’ll likely not like this game. There’s an online version or two you can play to see if you’d like it before buying it. Even if you do buy it and don’t like it, chances are that someone in your family or circle of friends will love it. I really do!

User Ratings and Reviews

1 Star Boring
Perhaps it is just what others have liked about this game – freedom from scrabble’s tyrannical board – is what I disliked about it the most in the end.

I am a huge fan of word games but I think the crucial ingredient in making this particular one fun is the presence of kids/teens. Just adults will find this pretty much a waste of their time even if they are big on word games/crosswords/boggle/scrabble etc.

4 Stars What a fun game
This is a game you can play anywhere (airplane, beach, even at home). Although the rules can get a little bit boring and the game can last a while with only 2 people, it is easy to add new rules and be creative with it.

5 Stars My High School Students are Addicted!!!!
I’m a math and physics teacher and I introduced this game to my 11th graders after the seniors graduated and we only had a few days in class. It started to sweep the school!!! Teachers were coming to play against students in their free period, kids were begging other teachers to come to my class – for what- to SPELL!!!! We learned new words, made new friends, and crossed all kinds of cultural boundaries. The best lesson I ever taught high school students. . Long after they forget the sine of 30 degrees, they will remember the words we learned in BANANAGRAMS!

5 Stars never ending fun
What’s more fun than playing settlers with 4 people? Playing it with 5 to 6 people!

5 Stars Great game for the whole family!
The expansion retains all of the fun goodness of the game but now expands it so EVERYONE can play! What fun!

I can’t say anything bad. If you like the game, you’ll like the expansion. Period.

My grandson was delighted to have the extension package for Settlers of Catan. He has played the game, but only with 3 other people and there are always more who want to play. This was his favorite birthday present.

Five Crowns

Five Crowns




Five Crowns is a fast paced ingenious rummy-like card game. Its double deck contains five suits (the stars are new), but it has no aces or twos. This unique deck gives you many more options for arranging your hand into sets and sequences. The challenge is to see them make the right combinations, be the first to go out, then watch the others scramble as they get one last chance to cut their losses. Five Crowns, with its beautiful cards, is easy to learn. It starts with three cards and 3’s are wild. The next hand has four cards and 4’s are wild, and so on. You’ll need luck and skill throughout the game because even in the last hand a worthy opponent can come from behind and win. Remember, “the game isn’t over ’til the Kings go wild!” Five Crowns is for up to 2 to 7 players.
