Mattel's New game, PictionaryAir is out now! #REVIEW

PictionaryAir CHANGES THINGS UP - get drawing in the air







All my freak gamers out there, there's a new baddie on the block. Mattel's PictionaryAir has hit South Africa and I want to give you a lowdown on what to expect, what I liked and what I did not like about it so you can make an informed decision when purchasing it.


First things first, Pictionary Air is probably one of the most hilarious games I have ever played. In my opinion it was perfectly designed to bring the humour that has been missing in the gaming world lately.  new version of the game that takes sketches off the paper pad and onto your phone, tablet or TV screen. Yup, everything is digital now which makes things way easier and advanced.



The best way to play this is if you have about 8 members and then split into two teams to play against each other, the competitiveness it brings is quite healthy to relationships, trust me. Download the free Pictionary App, point the in-app camera at the illustrator and they'll appear, along with their sketch, on the screen of your smart device or even TV screen. I recommend the TV screen if you have a large group of people but the downside? The TV feature is only compatible with certain smartphones



I loved playing this game mainly because it brings the whole family together regardless of age, Toymakers often struggle with finding the right balance to incorporating tech that gets kids excited, while also not pushing away parents who are wary of data collection and want to limit screen time. The Guesses are hilarious and you'll see that some people are really bad drawers!


Pictionary Air will be available at selected retailers at a recommended retail price of R499.99. It Includes a Pictionary Air pen, 112 double-sided clue cards and card box and one AA Alkaline battery.
