About the game

Telestrations: 12 Player Party Pack scales the beloved drawing-and-guessing party game up to a full dozen players. Combining the schoolyard 'telephone' game with sketching, players draw a secret word, pass their book along, and the next person guesses what was drawn: with hilarious drift from original word to final guess. The Big Reveal at the end lets everyone see exactly how things went sideways. No artistic talent is required, only a willingness to laugh at your own doodles. It's designed purely for big, boisterous groups.

Hobbli's Notes

This pack is a party staple precisely because the low skill floor guarantees laughs regardless of drawing talent. It genuinely shines with a full house rather than a small table, so save it for the crowd. One of the most reliable icebreakers we stock.

What we like

  • Hilarious, unpredictable results every single round.
  • Rules are instantly understandable for any group.
  • Scales beautifully up to a full twelve players.
  • No drawing skill needed to have a great time.

Keep in mind

  • Needs a fairly large group to really shine.
  • Offers little for players seeking strategic depth.
  • Fun depends heavily on the group's willingness to be silly.

Who it's for

Large groups aged 12 and up looking for an easy, laugh-out-loud party game, best with a full table of 8-12 players.
