Pictionary

Synopsis

Pictionary makes its DS debut with more than 3000 clues, three different modes of play, and six unique draw modes. Inspired by the hit board game, itself a variant on charades, Pictionary has team members either drawing clues or trying to figure out a specific word being drawn by a teammate. Words consist of objects, people, actions, animals, places, and a category known only as "difficult." Solo gamers can take on two different modes of Pictionary, while multiplayer fans can form teams and pass the DS for local hotseat action in "Pictionary Mania," or up to four teams can compete in the "Pictionary Quiz" mode. A drawing toolbar that includes styles, shapes, colours, and brush sizes is offered to help the artistically challenged compete, while creative games can design their own clues in the Clue Creator, and DSi owners can snap photos of items and turn them into clues.
