A Little bit of Games Trivia

The origins of hangman are not readily identifiable but the game is thought to have surfaced in Victorian times. One can imagine Victorian ladies sitting round a fire in the parlour drinking tea and trying not to hang the man!

Word Scramble or Anagram games were popular in the Middle Ages and may even date back to the third century B.C. Anagrams were very popular in Latin and were sometimes regarded as puzzles for the upper classes. These days they feature in many television quiz programmes and analysts sometimes use them to assess memory.

We have Norman E. Gibat to thank for the popular Word Search game. He made up and published the first Word Search game in the late 1960s and it is still going strong today. Most people will be familiar with this game as it is often printed in newspapers and magazines.
