Awesome Modernization
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love that this game has never went out of style! It's so fun and engaging. The drawing boards are easy to clean and the markers are well inked. Two decks of cards so that everyone has a chance.

Messy
Like the idea going paperless but the “whiteboards” are useless... extremely messy. Would not recommend until improvements made on creating better reusable boards and markers that don’t cause ink to be all over your hands and clothes.

Wear gloves
Love the original of this game and thought this would be a nice upgrade. It would be much better if the markers had erasers on the ends of them. Words overall seemed more difficult as well. Too many all plays. We still had fun though.

Way Too Messy
No matter how we erased the ink everyone was covered with ink and only adults were playing, no alcohol involved.

More complex than needed
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We like Pictionary in general, but this version isn't our favorite. The rules get complicated when you use both sets of cards (kids and adults) - would be best to have kids and adult cards the same format so it wasn't so complicated. Also we found the whiteboards to be a bit small - would be much better if they were th...

Fun family game
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My daughter and I love playing Pictionary together. Having two groups of cards makes this game multi-age friendly, while the erasable boards and markers are a more environmentally friendly alternative than multiple pieces of paper. The boards and markers seem sturdy, however my daughter and I are debating on using thin...

Always Funs
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Pictionary is always fun and this version doesn't disappoint. 80 cards for kids and 120 cards for adults, the game is only about half an hour so no chance of running out of cards too soon. The draw erase boards are a great idea. The boards are a little hard for kid to handle during play but otherwise easy to use.

Family fun time!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I like the new setup for Pictionary. It keeps the game focused and shorter play time. The shorter play time allows for multiple games to be play.

I did try playing with my 4yo. We worked on counting and following directions. I used the Jr cards to draw the simple items she can guess.

Great Family Fun!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My Wife, 10 year old son and myself had a blast playing this game. It is not what I remember from the original pictionary that i grew up playing but it was fun. I liked the fact that you can play this on adult game nights or you can play this on family game night because of the dual age category cards. The only thing I...

Pictionary
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Pictionary is THE perfect game to share with family and friends. This game is inherently comical as not only drawing but thinking skills are tested under pressure via a timer. Watch a player try and draw something as complex as "infinity," to as simple as "parking lot" in under a minute. Add the element of team play, a...

Classic Game is a Winner
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Pictionary is one of those games that you can bust out time and again and not get tired of! It encourages artistic skills but even more importantly using your brain, unlike games that rely on a simple roll of the dice and moving a peg around in a circle. Where's the imagination in that?

Good for older kids and adult...

Great family interactive game
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a great game for the entire family to enjoy at the same time. With the 2 different levels of clues for kids and adults, it was a lot of fun for us all. I love the fact that it comes with erasable boards. It is to soon to tell how durable they will be with the repeated use. Also, not that its a big deal, but the...

Fun family game
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The newest version of Pictionary is quite fun to play. No more searching for paper with the new reusable dry erase boards, and updated cards to bring the game to a new generation. No art experience necessary, but to avoid frustration with little kids I'd recommend that players be at least 8 (the recommended age on the ...

great family game
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My son and I had a great time playing this new game. We especially enjoyed the new pop culture category. I love that there isn't a bunch of paper being wasted. I do however, wish the boards were a little easier to hold on to and the marker easier to come off. Overall it's such a fun game!

Game play is fun and is a great way to get creative while having fun with family and friends. Love the addition of the new category to the game!

CONS:
I think that I would almost prefer going back to the paper tablet format, and here's why:
