About the game
Loony Quest is a creative drawing game where players trace level cards onto transparent sheets, trying to hit targets and avoid obstacles across whimsical fantasy worlds. Once everyone finishes drawing, sheets are laid over the level card to reveal how well each player's line matches the intended path. Inspired by video games, players progress through different worlds, trigger special stages, and collect experience points to win.
Hobbli's Notes
