Back Seat Drawing Junior Review
EQUATION: Out of the Box Publishing creates innovative party, card and board games that provide fresh, fun and engaging ways to enjoy time with friends and family. Games that: * can be learned in minutes. My kids, husband, and I sat down and played two games worth. PLUS: The kids “got it” immediately, once explained to them. It was extremely interesting to see their thought process as they explained what to draw as the director. One son, I noticed, was very general in his descriptions and would get frustrated with the artist when they didn’t draw what they had in their head. The other son was extremely precise. “Draw one line straight up. A little shorter. Good job, that’s perfect. Now draw another line from the top pointing right. Exactly. Now…” It was hysterical watching him, and his little signs. They weren’t, however, so good at guessing what was being drawn – but they were trying. MINUS: The games were very short. Probably great if it’s just kids (as it’s intended for.) The scoring system is such that one person can win in a very short amount of time. Also, we had a little trouble with the dry-erase markers deciding not to draw if the lid was off for a bit (such as when listening to the Director explain what they want drawn.) EQUALS: A positive review. The kids had a great time, and vociferously demanded we play again. Of course, it’s too easy for my husband and I, but for the kids, it’s great. Pictionary fans would probably love this game. It kept my kids engaged. It moved fast. It was understandable for the kids. I would definitely recommend this one for some good old fashioned family time. Also – would probably be a great thing to do while waiting on other stuff – for dinner to come out of the oven, that sort of thing. This opinions in this review are my own. I was sent the game gratis.

In Back Seat Drawing Junior Players race to identify a drawing done by the “artist”— but the artist doesn’t know what he or she is drawing! It’s up to the “director” to tell the artist how to draw the picture without giving away the name of the item shown on the picture card.
