Pictionary Air (2019) is a party game where teams compete to guess the most words on a card using just their drawing abilities. Unlike the classic game, you use a light pen to draw pictures in the air, which are displayed on a screen. It sounds like an over-complication, but actually adds new ways to interact with your drawings and for your team to control play using the accompanying app.

Play Overview
Pictionary Air is a party game where teams compete to guess the most words on a card using just their drawing abilities. Unlike the classic game, you use a light pen to draw pictures in the air, which are displayed on a screen. It sounds like an over-complication, but actually adds new ways to interact with your drawings and for your team to control play using the accompanying app.
The first player is given the Interactive Pen and stands near the screen so they cannot see it. They then work through each of their cards, drawing in the air with the pen to create a visual clue. Because they are also on camera, they can interact with their picture on the screen to add some additional hints. The rest of the team watches the screen, guessing and signalling correct answers on the app.
What starts as a new take on a classic game, becomes an active challenge in spacial awareness, visual communication and working together to take on new challenges. You need to be resilient, creative and work quickly to communicate most effectively. The app takes care of the rest.
