Telestrations review

Telestrations is a hilarious game that has quickly become a favorite in our house. It's essentially a combination of Pictionary and Telephone, with a healthy dose of chaos thrown in for good measure. Each player gets a word to draw, and then the next player has to guess what they've drawn and try to draw it themselves. This continues until the drawing makes it all the way back to the original person, who then gets to see how their word has been transformed over the course of the game.

The best part about Telestrations is the sheer unpredictability of it all. You never know what kind of bizarre interpretations your drawing is going to get, and that's where the real fun lies. We've had some absolute howlers come out of this game, and it's always a good laugh for everyone involved.

What I really like about it is that it's a great game for all ages. We've played it with kids, teenagers, and adults, and everyone has a blast. Even if you're not the best artist (like me!), you can still have a lot of fun with this game.

Another thing I appreciate about it is that it's simple to learn and quick to play. The instructions are easy to follow, and the game moves along at a brisk pace, which keeps everyone engaged. We usually play it in rounds, with each round taking about 40 minutes, so it's a great option for a game night or a party.

Overall, Telestrations is a must-have for anyone looking for a fun and engaging game to play with friends and family. It's sure to get everyone laughing, and it's a game that you can play again and again without it getting old.
