Gesagt - getan!

Describe a picture line by line and watch what the others actually draw.

Designer: Roberto Fraga
Published by: HABA

One player places coloured magnets on a drawing board and gives instructions about where the lines should go. The others follow the instructions blind and then guess what picture they have just produced. The gap between what was meant and what actually appeared is where the game lives.

Who it's for

Groups with school-age kids who enjoy communication games and are happy when the outcome is a mess. Works across a wide age range at one table.

Not for you if…

Anyone at the table hates drawing, or you want a game with a scoring arc rather than a punchline. Published in 2006 with only 13 BGG ratings and no current availability.

Vibe's take

Talkative and full of laughs at the reveal, when six boards show six versions of the same instruction. The describer sweats, everyone else scribbles.
