Fun for all ages November 2, 2009
Custom Construction (Raleigh, NC)
What we really like about this toy is you can play with younger kids and a G-rated and then after they go to bed, turn around and have an uncensored game with adults. We play it at family get-togethers, first with the kids, then the adults, then after grandma & grandpa go home, it gets even more fun. It's not a dirty game at all, very family friendly, but you know how us 'adults' get as the night carries on...

That one girl
Whenever I mention Pictionary Man, it means a whole group of friends gathering around a coffee table, shouting comments and trying desperately to beat the other team. It is nothing but fun times. Pictionary Man is a pretty interactive game, since you get to discuss/guess at the thing your teammate's trying to draw. And I admit, I like Pictionary Man so much more than just regular Pictionary, since the word bank's a million times more updated and interesting. However, there are quite a few things that seem to be quite difficult to draw, or even people that we don't even know about. But my friends and I just make up new rules as we go along and so, problems solved!
I very much recommend this product. It might not be very educational or informative, but it's made for a jolly time!

Our friends and we LOVE this game. However we are pretty disappointed because we have played this game a total of four times (slightly different groups each time but a few of us played all of the times) and by the second game, we were already getting words we had gotten in the past. The box says there are over 2,000 words but it doesn't matter if the computer is random and picks old words before new words! In this case I think cards would be so much better because then you can make sure you never get repeats. Otherwise the game is fun, easy to understand and play, and I love how it incorporates charades, in a way, with the pictionary. Its great! I just may be contacting the company though to ask about what to do when you pay $31 for a game that starts repeating itself after the second game....

Pictionary is a great game, but Pictionary Man is a mass market miss. If you understand how to play Pictionary, then you understand how to play this game ... they are basically the same; however, instead of drawing on paper, you draw on hard white plastics objects (with a dry erase marker) in the following shapes:
- The man (a cartoon shaped person, about 12 inches tall)
- The board (a block about 1.5" x 6" x 3"
- The puck (a hockey puck about 1" think and 2" across)
The pros:
Pictionary is a great game, and loved by most people
The cons:
The dry erase markers are quickly mashed by frantic players drawing and pointing with them - if you play the game often, these will frequently need to be replaced at your own expense. Batteries are not included - to run the timer and score board. Drawing on "the man" is time consuming, distracting, difficult, and ineffective. We quickly discovered that in most cases, the player would discard the man and use "the board" as a blank drawing pallet - in essence using a marker and tiny white board instead of pencil and paper.
In summary:
Pictionary is a great game and I highly recommend it; however, Pictionary Man is just trying to get his hands on your wallet ... instead, "stick it to the man" and stay with the original version.
