Anomia Kids (2017)

About this game

The award-winning family game is back with an amusingly alliterative twist for kids. Now everyone from pre-readers to adults can enjoy the zany, high-energy fun of Anomia — no reading required! Anomia kids is simple to play. Draw a card and flip it over for all to see. Does the colored symbol on your card match another player? if so, be the first to shout a word that starts with the same sound as the image on your opponents card. Easy, right? beware – you may find that your brain can do some pretty silly things under pressure! playfully illustrated and easy to learn, Anomia kids, will have young players sharpening their quick wits, visual perception, and speech-language skills. And all ages will be laughing out loud as they try to beat each other to the punch!

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Works with 3 to 6.
• Rules load. At 1.0/5 this is a light game — explain it in a few minutes, good for a table that has not played much.
• Age. The publisher suggests 5 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
