Bananagrams
Using a selection of 144 plastic letter tiles in the English edition, each player works independently to create their own 'crossword'. When a player uses up all their letters, all players take a new tile from the pool. When all the tiles are gone, the first player to use up all the tiles in their hand wins.
There are also variants included in the rules, and the game is suitable for solo play.

A selection of reviews rated 8 or higher. BoardGameGeek. BGG ratings are not included in the uplay average.
Pros: Simple concept excecuted very well Minimal set-up required HIgh replayability Good with all number of players Cons: Difficult to map out space required Spelling skills required
Fun, portable, challenging, players can join or leave game, high quality tiles and pouch.
Free-form word play, no board required, great for travel trips. This is one of several games I choose to bring with when I am on the road. Quick to learn, all ages and levels can participate.
Fun and quick to set up, very fun to play with older kids as well... not so fun to play with crossword fanatics haha
