The ultimate Jewish-themed party game
In Hamantashen, you and your friends (2–6 players) will need to think fast to come up with words connecting randomly drawn letters with a variety of Jewish and general topics. Who can collect the most hamentashen? Find out!
Fast-paced gameplay
There are no turns in Hamantashen! Everybody plays simultaneously. You’ll need trivia skills, vocabulary, and speed to beat out your rivals.
Be the fastest to shout words that match any of the 3 topics shown on the center card. The fastest player to call out a correct answer collects that letter card.
Your answer must begin with the adjacent letter or the Hebrew letter on the card next to that topic.
Easy to learn, easy to teach
With intuitive gameplay and simple rules, you and your friends and family can be up and playing in no time.
And no lengthy setup!
No need to pass out cards in advance. Any player can shout out an answer! If you’re first, you take the card!
Unique double-sided triangular playing cards
Topics on one side; Letters on the other.
When a player snags a card… v’nahafoch hu! Flip over the middle card into the empty space and keep playing!
These beautiful, quality, custom-made playing cards feature clear, easy-to-read bilingual text (English and Hebrew) in a playful, minimalist design.
Endlessly replayable
Over 300 Jewish and general knowledge topics, and dozens of English and Hebrew letters (specifically, A–Z and א–ת). And because you never know what letters you’ll draw, it’s a different challenge every time. You’ll never get the same game twice!

Early rave reviews
Qualities of a good game are: 1: it should have simple rules. 2: it should move quickly. 3: it should have good replayability. This game knocks it out of the park on all three points! It’s the perfect game!

This is a great game. I can imagine taking it out often. And it’s great for travel, too!
