I was disappointed with this game. It is very, very similar to Bananagrams [ASIN:1932188126 Bananagrams]]. If you are choosing between the two, I recommend buying Bananagrams. If you already own Bananagrams, you probably don't need a copy of Pick Two Deluxe as well, because they are quite similar. Bananagrams is a GREAT game, so insofar as Pick Two is similar to Bananagrams, it is a great game too. However, where Bananagrams uses quality, thick, chunky little tiles to form words, Pick Two Deluxe uses larger, thinner, cheaper-feeling tiles. This is an important difference, because since you are building crosswords with the tiles in both games, you don't want flimsy tiles that move around easily or are hard to pick up. Bananagrams tiles are far superior. Pick Two does offer a couple of innovations that Bananagrams missed: point values are assigned to each letter (similar to We home school. I bought this game with the idea of it being a fun way for our children to use spelling... Well, it's great fun for all of us. Yes, it is very much like Scrabble. However, it is fast paced so they (I) don't get bored while waiting for The Scrabble Queen to place their mega-point word on the board! With this game you are allowed to redo your whole puzzle if you wish to. Our children range in ages from 23 to 6 and all have fun playing. Obviously, the younger ones need help confirming they are spelling a word correctly, but it is still fun. And, what a great way for them to practice spelling.Love this game. It's a great game to play with a group of varied ages. Our friends had it, we loved it, so we bought it. Took it to another friend's house the weekend we got it. Their kids loved it too. Would recommend it. (We don't mind the thin plastic tiles as they are easy to move in a hurry. This game is played with speed, so that makes a difference.Gave two as gifts and now I don’t have my own and it is no longer in production and very pricey to find one!! We ladies play it at all our family get togethers at my son’s house so I left it there. I would like another one.I love this game! We played it at a friend's house and I ordered it before we got home. We love having our own game to play at the house. You won't regret buying this game. Great quality and we'll worth the money!This game is a lot of fun. I didn't want to play it the first time, but it was a blast. Make sure you have a big enough table or other surface because the crossword puzzles tend to get big, and yours might cross into the person next to you. If you like crossword puzzles or scrabble, this one is great, but it is very fast paced.The kids like it & the adults love it! If your family enjoys word or strategy games they will enjoy this - it is like Scrabble on crack.I got the Deluxe version which has plastic tiles instead of the thick cardboard ones & and glad I spend the few extra dollars. Great Game!This game is lots of fun. People of all ages can play and have a great time. I would highly recommed this game to people with kids because it is a game that everyone can enjoy. It helps with spelling in a fun way.I purchased this game having played while visiting with family. Great for all ages to play together. So convenient to purchase online .Surprisingly good gamegreat fun my husband likes playing word games on the computer and this gives us a chance to do it together.
