They will then write down what they think this is a drawing of. Other players around the table will be doing the same thing simultaneously.Īs the boards are passed, players will then look at the drawing they have been given, take a blank Scrawl Dry-Wipe card, and clip this onto the drawing. Once they are done, they pass their board face down to the player on their left. Each player will nominate a colour, and then take a Phrase/Scenario Card, and begin attempting to draw their best interpretation of it onto their player board (the colour nominated determines which phrase/scenario the player has to draw).
The larger box does seems to allow for the game and its components to be stored a lot easier, as you could often find the first edition would fall out of the insert if stored vertically. The only discernible difference is that the clue cards are larger in comparison, a change which makes them easier to read and visible from across the table, and a few minor artwork tweaks. Owners of the original edition will not find anything too dissimilar in the updated version.
These include eight player boards and bulldog clips, enough Scrawl dry-wipe cards for people to write/draw on as the game progresses, 240 multi-choice phrase/scenario cards, and eight dry-erase pens and cloths. The game comes complete with enough bits and pieces for 4- 8 players to play at any one time. The original version was released back in 2016, with the Second Edition, larger box printing, coming out a year later. Scrawl is a follow-up to a number of other successful releases, namely Linkee and Bucket of Doom. You may be forgiven for taking a passing glance at Scrawl, and being immediately overcome with terror as you recollect the many incidents and feuds that came out of playing Pictionary with the family – Nobody wants to repeat the great family squabble of December 1993… Big Potato Games, a UK based company specialising in party games, decided enough is enough – something had to be done – People need to draw and have fun!
Scrawl is sure to put the spirit back into anyone’s party but remember to enjoy responsibly and sorry kids, this is strictly adults only! “But what if the final scrawl matches the original phrase on the card” I hear you cry! Well, if that happens, then the player responsible can rejoice and gain a bonus three points! Scrawl can quickly spiral out of control, with drawings getting more and more questionable as the game plays on! The winner is the first person to get the same amount of points as there are players or, as Big Potato affectionately put it the first person to die laughing! This continues (drawing and writing) until you end up with your original board that should, hopefully, have more doodles and phrases placed above it! Each player will then see what journey their picture has taken and everyone votes on their favourite doodle for each player! That proud artist will then receive a point! Once drawn, the doodle is then passed to the player on their left who then proceeds to try and guess what has been drawn and writing it on a new board, that being placed over the drawing, which is then passed on to the player to your left. The game starts by all players taking a card with scenario card, with a phrase that the player must illustrate. Scrawl, as described by the creators as “chinese-whispers meets Pictionary” is a game of frantic doodling and some “innocent” misunderstanding that sees players trying to guess what the awful doodle in front of them is trying to depict, while also letting their inner Picasso out and attempting to draw the phrase they have been given. This adult party game comes from the creative minds of Big Potato Games, famous for games such as Obama Llama. If you have ever fancied yourself as the next Monet or Van Gough, then Scrawl is a game that should suit you perfectly well.
