When a player has none of his/her original letters left, that player says "PEEL" and takes a tile from the bunch. At this point ALL OF THE OTHER PLAYERS MUST ALSO TAKE A TILE FROM THE BUNCH and add it to their collection of letters.
4
At any time, and as often as desired during play, any player may return a difficult-to-use letter back to the center of the BUNCH, face down, but MUST TAKE THREE LETTERS IN RETURN. The player must declare this action to the other players by saying "DUMP". This exchange does not affect the other players.
5
Play continues until there are fewer tiles in the BUNCH than there are players. The first player with no remaining letters shouts "BANANAS" and is the winner of that hand. The other players may now inspect the winning hand for misspelled or incorrect words. Proper nouns are not acceptable. Any available dictionary may be used. If all words are acceptable, that player is the WINNER OF THAT HAND. If any word in the "winning" hand is found to be unacceptable, that player becomes the "Rotten Banana" and is OUT OF THAT HAND, and must return his/her letters, face down to the center bunch and the game now resumes for the remaining players.
SUGGESTIONS FOR PLAYING BANANAGRAMS
"BEST OF?"
A hand can take as little as 5 minutes, so players, if desired, could play for the "best of five" or "the best of ten".
BANANA SMOOTHIE (For those who want to play a less hectic game)
All tiles are placed face down on the table The letters are divided equally among the players, remaining face down. Players then play the regular BANANAGRAMS game, but there is no "peeling" or "dumping". The first player to use all his/her letters shouts "BANANAS" and is the winner of the hand. If the game ends in a stalemate, the player with the fewest remaining letters is the winner.

It's fun anywhere May 14, 2010
word master (Haines City, Florida, US)
First saw Bananagrams at the airport. Two women were playing it while waiting for their plane. You play separately,making your own crossword puzzle, but you are also playing together. If you love word games, like I do, this is a great game.Bananagrams
Gone bananas over bananagrams May 14, 2010
Carol J. Warboys (Riverside, CA USA)
As an activity professional, this Bananagrams game has really gotten my residents involved and excited about making their own crosswords. They like that it can be played on any table and that there are no point scores (like Scrabble). More can play at the same time. Great Fun!
Fabulous! May 11, 2010

Great Overall Game May 9, 2010
Professor Al (Newark, Ca)
Not a word game player but played on vacation with friends and got hooked big time. Loads of fun and the competition to spell words made the game even more challenging. Recommended for all ages, as I had teenager hooked on it. Ended up buying two, one for home and one to travel with
