Great Game for the Entire Family

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My 9 year old enjoyed playing this game after Thanksgiving. It's a fun activity for the whole family. Great way to spend quality time. We will be playing this all holiday season and many weekends!!!!!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Had a ton of fun playing this one, but there were a few things that we did not love. Great fun with family, wife and kids played numerous games and really had some much needed family time. The interaction with the phone and A.I. definitely helps these kids from this generation to keep focused.
This is also a different way than the normal Pictionary, you are not guessing the drawing, you are guessing if the A.I. will guess the drawing.
First thing we noticed is the lack of physical instructions. Save the trees? Sure, but just print it on the inside of the box then. The video instructions were ok, but had to stop and rewatch them again. The lack of an eraser for the dry erase markers was disappointing as well. Especially after your child tries to use their hand, and the marker stains their hands. Yikes.
Another thing we thought was a little off, was when the A.I.I guesses incorrectly, you can have them guess again, but they will sometimes repeat the previously failed guess. The cap on the pens are a little misleading for kids as well (you'll understand when you purchase the product).
Finally, I understand we are early in the world of A.I., but the image they scan sometimes gets very distorted, which can alter it to where the A.I. can not correctly guess the drawing.
Overall we had a blast with this game and will be bringing it with us to Thanksgiving for some after dinner family fun.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This game is a very cool concept! However it was hard to get it to work with my iPhone for some reason. The instructions could be a bit better, they were kind of hard to understand. I do like that you can play regular Pictionary without AI.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a great game that provides hour of endless entertainment for the kids and the adults alike. Very simple set up and a very fun and entertaining way to keep everyone in the house occupied on a rainy day or a family games night.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The game setup was fairly straightforward and easy to understand. It does require a phone or tablet with Internet access, which means this isn't one you could take places like camping. We had a ton of laughs while playing, mostly because the AI sometimes has some hilariously wrong guesses. We did have a little struggle with it scanning correctly, but found that if we placed the board before moving onto the next scan it worked more reliably. Overall this was a pretty fun game for family night!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This a great family game to get your pre teens or teens together. I love Pictionary, it is an all time favorite in my home and the AI technology just makes it more entertaining for the kids. I am not the best drawer but AI did guess some of my drawings (not all). It did have trouble guessing at my 11yr olds drawing but it was fun to hear all of the guesses. For an old timer like me, I enjoy the classic version better but your kids will find this cool. The quality of the board and stand can be improved for a better presentation.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This version of Pictionary allows all of the players to draw and to 'wager' which player's drawing will the AI guess correctly and which one will it not. My family played. We had fun drawing. But the down side was the AI pretty much gave incorrect guesses and even so kept guessing, " Is it a ... COW!?!!"
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Kids had so much fun drawing for the AI! You do need a smartphone but QR code takes you to a site instead of an app (yay!). Game can be set 10, 20 or 30 sec to draw (love!). We simplified it for our younger kids and didn't do the "betting" part and still had a blast! Then we discovered the free draw mode! Markers do stain fingers and hard to wipe but we made it work. Really fun even for parents!
