Designed to work with the uDraw GameTablet (required) this screen adaptation of the board game where you sketch and guess clues is a lot of fun. Content includes 3,000 clues, for up to four players or teams, and games can be saved for long-term play. The clues range in difficulty level. There are three game modes: Pictionary (like a game show with a 3D board and dice for turns); Pictionary Mania (seven draw modes and a custom game board. The modes are called Get It Straight, Shape It Up, Rotation Frustration, One Line, Ink Limit, No Peeking and Off Hand); and Free Draw (use the existing drawing tools to simply sketch). Testers noted that the game was fun, especially because the big screen TV was so easily viewed from every corner of the room. Created by Page 44 Studios for THQ. See also Pictionary DS.
