About the game
MonsDRAWsity is a frantic party game where one player, the Witness, briefly studies a strange creature illustration, then must describe it from memory to the rest of the group, the Sketch Artists, who race to draw it as accurately as possible. Points are awarded to whoever's sketch most closely matches the original monster. With rotating roles and wildly different alien designs each round, no two games play the same. It's fast, silly, and perfect for groups who enjoy chaotic drawing party games.
Hobbli's Notes
The core hook of describing something from a fleeting glimpse is a clever twist on party drawing games, and the silly monster art guarantees laughs. It's light enough to teach in minutes and works well with larger groups up to eight. It won't appeal to gamers looking for strategic depth, but as a laugh-out-loud icebreaker it delivers reliably.
What we like
- Unique memory-and-description twist on drawing party games.
- Supports large groups of up to eight players.
- Quick 30-minute playtime keeps energy high.
- Whimsical monster art guarantees laughs.
Keep in mind
- Very light strategy, appealing mainly as a party icebreaker.
- Drawing-averse players may feel less engaged.
- Repeated plays may reduce the novelty of the twist.
Who it's for
