Top 3 Games for Artists

One of the best-known drawing games, Pictionary remains one of the best loved for a simple reason: it's great fun! You pick a card and put pencil to paper while your friends have to guess what the word is that you're illustrating. In only 60 seconds. Some words are easy, others are fiendish. Also available in themed editions. Needs three or more players.

Each player has to sculpt the word they've chosen in clay. The trick is that you're penalised if it's too easy or too hard. Add to this a circular board on which you move so you can ask questions about the word (and the need to have gold to move), and you've a unique "guess the word" game. Three to six players. Ages 12 and up.

A mixed trivia and creativity game that involves wearing four different hats: Creative Cat, Data Head, Star Performer, and Word Worm. So you'll be drawing, sculpting, acting, whistling, spelling, whatever it takes, to get your team mates to figure out the answer. Needs four or more players. Ages 12 and up.
