    MY THOUGHTS:

    Being that I haven’t played Pictionary in over ten years, I thought this game was pretty cool.  First off you do need the uDraw tablet for the Wii, which I actually got my son for his birthday, although this game is for me!  Whats nice is that there is no setup or cleanup that is typically involved with Pictionary, which is why I probably stopped playing Pictionary!

    Playing Pictionary on the Wii I thought would be a challenge but it actually was pretty easy to get used it.  The uDraw tablet is pretty easy to use and there are buttons and voice prompts to guide you through.  It is strange though as the other players have to cover their eyes while the drawer is checking out their “card.”  Then the drawer gets going and reveals clues.    There are easier clues and then more advanced ones, so kids to adults can play the game!  There are also different modes for playing:  Original and Pictionary Mania.  If you are looking for a challenge or party game, Pictionary Mania is a version to check out as you have to do weird but fun drawing tasks!  Overall, if you like Pictionary and are looking for more uDraw games, definitely check out Pictionary!

    BUY IT: Look for “Pictionary – uDraw” wherever video games are sold or check it out online.

    WIN IT: (1) US/CAN winner will receive the game “Pictionary – uDraw” (a uDraw tablet for the Wii is required and is not included with game)

      I love pictionary and play with it with my friends during game night. Playing it on the wii would be fun too!

      Taboo Haha but there isn’t any possible way. Unless they just write the incorrect things that have been guessed on the screen. That actually doesn’t sound like such a bad idea.

      We have a Pokemom board game that my son absolutely loves and plays many nights. I would love to see some Pokemon on Wii!

      My favorite board game for the Wii is actually one that we have & play quite often: Monopoloy! It has a whole bunch of different Monopoly boards and different ways you can play, in addition to the “normal” way of playing. It’s so much fun for the whole family!

      My favorite game I’d like to see as a wii game is buzzword. I love this boardgame and if it doesn’t already exist, I think it would be really fun to play on the wii.
