Based on wonderful family memories of playing classic Pictionary, I asked for this for my birthday.Unfortunately, they've messed with it.The items they've chosen for drawing have clearly not been vetted.The example I'm thinking of is "Windows XP."Who can draw that without writing "XP"?Items like that are also going to be dated very quickly.
The final square on the classic board is an all-play, which gives other teams a last chance to take game play away from the leaders.On this board, the leading team can win without a final face-off.I'm disappointed in the lack of consideration that was given to "updating" this game.I just bought a copy of the classic game and will be getting rid of this version.pictionary is great for a wide age group. my niece and nephew, who are ten and 8, found the jr version a little too easy. with the regular version, they can use their imagination more and learn new things that they may have never heard of before. plus, if they dont know what the phrase or item is, it can be skiped and they can draw something they do know on the cards. as they get older, they can follow the rules closer, but for now, we all enjoy a night of pictionary (adults and kids alike)!
This is a fun group game for children and adults. It is better if the game is played by people over 13. There is a JR version for the younger set, but this version involves cultural and vocabulary awareness best reserved for older children. Good way to spend an hour.This version of Pictionary, or perhaps just this seller's version, is defective.The cards sealed & enclosed in the box do not match up with the board or the directions.The cards have a green side and an orange side, with 5 categories.The directions call for cards with a red side and blue side, and the board has 6 color categories.The directions also mention 20 special cards which were nowhere to be found.As 10 college-educated adults, we were able to kind of make up our own rules and play the game and have a great time, but I am returning the game since it's very confusing to have the wrong cards.The board did not match the instructions.I was very disappointed and returned this game. I have had pictionary in the past and it is a fun game.
