Anagrams (game)

A game of Snatch, each player having already formed several words. The G tile has been turned over in the pool, and could be combined with SATE to make STAGE. If the leftmost player notices this first, they will get to keep the word STAGE in front of them; if the rightmost player spots it, they can steal the word and move it to their side. If neither can make a word using the G, another tile will be revealed.

Anagrams (also published under names including Anagram, Snatch and Word Making and Taking) is a tile-based word game that involves rearranging letter tiles to form words.

The game pieces are a set of tiles with letters on one side. Tiles are shuffled face-down then turned over one by one, players forming words by combining them with existing words, their own or others'. The game has never been standardized and there are many varieties of sets and rules. Anagrams is often played with tiles from another word game, such as Scrabble or Bananagrams.
