The Hysterical Game of Sketchy Directions!

Two teams race to identify drawings done by their own team members. But the artists don’t know what they are drawing—they can only follow the instructions given by another team member. Laughter erupts as players attempt to follow direction and to guess what is being drawn.
Junior Edition

With Backseat Drawing, there’s no time to stop and ask directions— the fun never stops!

The Challenge Cards feature four languages: English, Spanish, French, and German. Play in the language of your choice!
