Pictionary (Board Game)

The classic game of Pictionary gets an update with markers, erasable boards,and a new pop culture category. Just like traditional Pictionary, players haveto draw, or attempt to draw, the word featured on the card they choose, andtheir team has to guess what’s being drawn. But instead of drawing withpencil and paper, in this game you get to draw with a marker and erasable board.You still only get one minute to draw and guess, though.

The game also comes with two decks of clue cards: 120 adult cards and80 junior cards. The adult cards feature five words representing five differentcategories: Object, Person/Place/A­nimal, Action, Difficult, and the newestcategory Popular Culture. The junior cards feature five kid-friendly clues thatall relate to the category stated on the top of the card.

On your team’s turn, the person drawing picks a card from the appropriatecard deck and must draw the word that matches the color of the space on whichthe team’s pawn rests on the board. If the team correctly guesses the word,they roll the die, advance that number of spaces on the board, and continueplaying with a new artist and card. Once that team fails to guess a word in theone-minute time limit, the team’s turn is over, and play passes to theother team.

Certain spaces on the board are Wild, which means the artist can choose anyword on the card to draw, and other spaces are All Play spaces, which means bothteams will participate in guessing the clue at the same time.

A team wins the game if they reach the last All Play space, have control ofthe die, and win the All Play.
