Description Description
In Subtext, players try to communicate with one another by drawing hints about the word on their card. Drawing well is not required — just being clever in selecting your hints.

Each round, one person is the dealer. This player looks at their word, then shuffles the card into the cards for the other players and distributes them randomly. By doing this, one player will have the same word as the dealer, but nobody — not even the dealer — knows who it is. The dealer then draws a picture, and you want to hint at your word so that ideally only the person who has the same word will understand what you're depicting. In the subsequent guessing phase, all players (including the dealer) guess which player got the same word as the dealer. Points are awarded based on the number of incorrect guesses, but the dealer and their partner have to guess correctly to even get points. How vague do you want to be in your drawing efforts to still get your message across without anyone else knowing it?

Zeichnenspiel. Ur lustig, weil man die Begriffe so zeichnen muss, dass sie manche erraten und andere nicht. Dadurch wird es immer mega abstrakt und es entstehen schnell Insider in der Runde.

Decrypto style clues meets Dixit style voting via drawing, I do like all of these. Surprised it is not a popular game though

I usually don't play party games but this one is fun. It is good for large groups. As soon as we are 6 player this game hits the table most of the time.

One of the best party games of 2019, though the scoring could stand to be a bit more intuitive.

畫畫猜圖的遊戲,出題者抽詞卡看好後再抽出人數-2張混洗給其他玩家,大家根據自己看到的畫下來,將其他玩家的畫洗混打開,猜測和出題者相同詞卡是哪張?猜對的才有分,看猜錯的多少人出題者和拿到同詞卡玩家得同猜錯人數量分數,其他玩家則得到猜錯人數+1分數。 玩了一下才懂精隨,不是畫的多像而是畫得很抽象,因為不能讓非拿詞卡玩家猜到,需要很抽象的創意發想去描述詞語,但又不能毫不相關亂畫,這就是畫的不像但又要有點像的糾結精隨所在,讓拿詞卡玩家能get到你會很開心,當然其他玩家猜到也是種你也懂得樂趣。 畫畫結合陣營找同伴的感覺,在作畫上搞抽象,說書人則是在圖卡上搞抽象的對調版,有時一個明確的物品能有驚奇的發現,原來還可以這樣畫這樣形容。
