Masters Gallery

In Masters Gallery, the players are art critics and gallery owners. All have their own favorite artist in this pantheon of greats—or at least they do until the game begins. Tastes and opinions about each artist’s value change constantly in the world of Old Masters art. No one has more influence on those values than the players in this game.

Which player will exert the most influence? Who will best anticipate these changing tastes and opinions, and thus assemble the highest-valued collection of these masterpieces?

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!
