About this board game
Picassimo is a simultaneous drawing and guessing game for 3–6 players that takes about 30 minutes to play. Everyone creates an artwork, then rearranges parts of it before the group tries to identify what was drawn.
Each player secretly chooses a term from their card and draws it on an erasable drawing board. All players draw at the same time, bringing their chosen concepts to life with markers. The game includes 900 terms, offering plenty of variety across three levels of difficulty.
When everyone is ready, a transformation card is revealed. It shows which sections of each artwork must be exchanged, cheerfully turning recognizable drawings into wonderfully twisted creations. A picture that once seemed clear may now look like something entirely different.
Once the sections have been swapped, everyone tries to recognize what the other players originally drew. The challenge is not only to make a good drawing, but also to keep enough of its identity after the transformation for others to guess it.
- All players draw simultaneously.
- Secret terms provide the subjects for the artworks.
- Transformation cards determine which sections are exchanged.
- Players earn points by drawing well and guessing correctly.
- Terms are organized across three difficulty levels.
Picassimo combines drawing, deduction, and unexpected visual transformations in one playful competition. The player who stays one step ahead at both painting and guessing collects the most points and wins.
