Pictures: X-mas

About this expansion

Pictures: X-mas is a festive expansion for Pictures for 3–6 players, with games lasting about 30 minutes. Released in 2022, it adds 110 new photos and two new materials to the picture-recognition experience.

The expansion introduces fresh ways to represent and recognize an image. In one approach, players try to identify a photo simply by feeling some items, using the tactile qualities of natural components as clues.

Another challenge is to arrange a Christmas table setting that allows the other players to find out which photo you are representing. This creates a distinctly seasonal way to communicate an image without relying on a conventional description.

• 110 new photos
• Two new materials
• Natural components for tactile clues
• A Christmas table-setting activity
• Support for 3–6 players
• Approximately 30 minutes per game

Pictures: X-mas brings its holiday theme to the core idea of recognizing photos through creative physical arrangements and sensory hints. Its new materials and components add variety while keeping the focus on helping other players discover the intended image.

Whether played during the holiday season or at another time of year, this expansion offers a collection of new photos and festive activities for fans of Pictures. With its combination of tactile recognition and Christmas table settings, it is a natural addition to the game.
