Rio Grande Games It's A Balloon - Word Guessing Drawing Game, Ages 8+, 3-8 Players

IT'S A BALLOON - In It's a Balloon!? you choose a word and draw it on your drawing board. Flip over the hourglass to start the round. Simultaneously explain to the other players which lines you draw. They follow along and try to guess the word as quickly as possible. It's a Balloon!? challenges your creativity. Hints can only be given as simple forms and lines. Can you guess the word before everyone else does? Words don't have to be guessed exactly. For example, when the word is ghost, specter would be correct as well. If the word were looking for is toothbrush, then brush wouldnt be an acceptable guess, as its too generic. When in doubt, decide as a group whether the answer counts or not. Variant - Cooperative game: You all score together: 1 or 2 points (depending on the value of the chosen word) for every correct answer. The maximum number of 6 points doesn't apply in this variant. At the end of the game, tally your points and compare them with the scoring table to see how well you performed as a group.
