About this game
Pictures gives you five wildly different toolkits, shoelaces, colored cubes, icon cards, sticks and stones, wooden blocks, and one shared job: recreate a secret picture well enough that your friends can guess it. You pull a marker to learn your image, then build it in front of everyone using whatever bizarre material you were handed that round, no words allowed. Once every abstract little sculpture is done, you go around guessing what everyone else was trying to show. Points flow both ways, for guessing correctly and for being understood. It rotates constantly between materials, so the same round of guessing never feels quite the same twice, and the completely wrong guesses are half the fun.
