Scrawl is a great game and drawing adds an extra dimension. In fact, the game is arguably even more fun when you can’t draw. Everyone can have fun, no matter what their level of artistic ability. What’s more, it really doesn’t matter how good you are at drawing.

The drawing aspect is really nice, as it adds something else to the game. Unlike Cards Against, however, there was a lot less “I don’t know what this means” and more doodling. Games like Scrawl and Cards Against Humanity force players to step outside of their comfort zones, thereby bringing everyone together. What is nice is that it creates a judgement-free zone. It is incredibly fun and addictive, with so much going for it as a party game. What can we say about Scrawl? Well…a few nights ago we played it with friends and laughed so hard we thought one of them had a hernia. All in all, it is a very well made and good looking game. There are butterfly clips that are also provided to hold the sheets in place. The game comes with whiteboard pens, wipes, and a shedload of the thinner sheets to ensure there are plenty to go around. This allows for you, as the player, to pick from the phrases in the “green”, “pink”, “white”, or “black” sections within a game. The cards themselves have four things written on them, split into different colours.

Each player gets their own whiteboard, and each has a groovy drawing on the back to easily be able to differentiate them from one another. It is worth noting that the cards are NOT suitable for children or those with a gentle disposition. Instead, we tend to do what the Hot Potato team suggested to us at the UK Games Expo and ignore the rules all together. That being said, the competitive nature is purely optional. Our Wookies are pretty good though, so we have that going for us.Īt the end of the round there is a point scoring system, where if the whiteboard says the same thing as the card once it has been around everyone it is one point, and then each player can choose one point for the best guess or drawing.

Yep, from which we can gather that none of us know how to draw gorillas, big foot, or yetis.
