Goal
The goal of the game is to win 5 cards by guessing the words that the other players draw.
Setup
Shuffle the word cards and lay out 9 of them in a 3 by 3 grid, as shown in the illustration. You may use either side of the word cards.
Then shuffle the large drawing cards and place them next to the remaining word cards.
Gameplay
The player who most recently drew or painted something starts the game. This player takes the top drawing card and the marker. Then, in their head, they choose one of the visible words on the laid-out cards (without taking the card) and start to draw, so that the other players can follow the drawing as it takes shape.
There are certain restrictions while drawing:
- You may not write words or use letters or numbers.
- You must use the red line as part of your new drawing.
- You may not paint over the red line.
(The manual illustrates these with example cards: the valid drawing of GAZETA (newspaper) uses no text or numbers, the valid drawing of MYSZ (mouse) uses the red line as part of the picture, and the drawing of PIRAMIDA (pyramid) does not paint over the red line.)
The other players try to guess the word being drawn at the same time and as quickly as possible. To guess, a player covers the card bearing the word with their hand and says the word out loud. A word may be guessed from the moment the drawing player starts drawing on the card.
If a guess is wrong, that player may not guess any words in this round. If no player guesses the word correctly, all participants return to the game.
The player who guessed what is appearing on the drawing card takes the word card as a point. This player also receives the marker and the same drawing card, on which they will draw a new word. They MAY NOT ERASE THE PREVIOUS DRAWING ON THE DRAWING CARD. They also add a new word card to the empty space on the table. This player becomes the new drawing player, chooses a word and starts redrawing.
When a drawing card has been used three times, the drawing player takes a new card from the top of the pile.
To remember how many times you have drawn on a given card, at the start of each round place a dot in one of the corners of the card.
End of the Game
The winner is the first player to collect 5 word cards.
