One of our family Christmas traditions each year is to add a new board game to our collection. Someday I hope to have a a fully-stocked “game closet” for frugal family game nights.
Hasbro’s newest addition to their Cranium collection is called Scribblish, and it recently arrived on our doorstep. I accepted the review as an opportunity to donate the game to Toys For Tots, so we have not actually opened the game. But the concept seems quite enjoyable and I just might have to add this one to our closet eventually!
Cranium Scribblish is a hilarious new game that’s like a cool mashup of the old schoolyard favorite, “The Telephone Game” and Pictionary. Simple, outrageous, and a ton of fun. Everybody grabs a card, chooses a caption, and then tries their best to draw it in 45 seconds. From there you pass on your drawing (now with the original caption concealed) to another player, who has to write a caption for your sketch. This mayhem continues around the room with more sketches and captions until the end when everyone tries to figure out how “this” became “that”. Oh, and if you’re not exactly a Picasso, no problem. Stick figures work just fine.
Indulge your inner doodler with Cranium Scribblish. Guaranteed fun for ages 8 to 80ish. Would you like to experience this clever new game?

1st time. Not sure if I’m commenting about game night in the right place, but here is my comment. We try to keep things pretty simply in our home in order to be able to have dinner together as a family and play games together. One of our favorite games is Balderdash. Lots of laughter during this game. We have two teens. One is a freshman in college (commuting) and one that is a senior in high school. My husband and I are very blessed to be able to spend quality time with them.
We like cribbage
Currently, Candy land is my preschooler’s favorite…I hope to increase our stash of board games too !

We have played our own version of Scribblish for years at family get-togethers! This is the first time I’ve heard of an actual name for the game though. It’s hilarious fun – the more people you have, the better! We have some very creative artists/writers in the family, so the results can be very entertaining!
