Product Description
The "Telephone Game" Turned Into The #1 LOL Family & Party Game!
Draw what you see then guess what you saw for hilarious and unpredictable outcomes. It’s miscommunication at its best!
Share The Fun, Spread The Laughter! Telestrations LOL With Family & Friends!Object of the game? To laugh - A lot!
Telestrations is perfect for family parties, fun with friends or entertaining a crowd.
No drawing skills required!
Telestrations is the visual version of the classic “telephone game” where you draw what you see, then guess what you saw to reveal hilarious outcomes!
Here's How To Play & LOL
Each player starts with their own erasable sketch book, marker and word card. A roll of the die determines each player’s secret word. The timer gets turned and everyone draws their word. After 60 seconds, everyone passes their book to the player on their left. Then each player takes a few seconds to guess in words(s) what they see, and passes again. The timer is turned and everyone draws the guess.This continues until everyone’s sketch book passes by every player and returns back to its original owner, where it’s time for The Big Reveal. Everyone shares their book and the hilarious miscommunication is revealed. Just like the game of “telephone,” the outcomes are unpredictable and the laughter is contagious!

- Reviewed in the United States on August 8, 2024Style: Board GameVerified PurchaseIf you've ever wished for a game where you can showcase your creativity without worrying about your less-than-masterful drawing skills, Telestrations Original 8-Player is here to make your dreams come true! This family board game is a whimsical whirlwind of laughter and imagination that promises endless fun for both kids and adults.
Let’s dive into the magic of Telestrations. The game starts with a word or phrase that each player must draw, and then hilariously interpret based on the subsequent drawings. Sounds simple, right? But the real fun begins when your artistic “masterpieces” are passed around, leading to interpretations that are often delightfully off-the-wall. It’s a delightful spectacle of miscommunication and creativity that will have everyone in stitches!
Now, if you’re like me and you’ve ever been labeled as “artistically challenged” (or if you simply want to avoid being compared to Picasso), this is the game for you. Forget about your fears of sketching skills—Telestrations embraces your quirky, imperfect drawings with open arms and turns them into comedic gold. It’s all about the joy of the journey and the hilarious results that come from it.
The game is beautifully designed for up to 8 players, making it perfect for family gatherings, game nights with friends, or even a party where you’re looking to break the ice. The components are top-notch, with dry-erase boards and markers that make it easy to jump right into the fun. The only thing you need to bring is your sense of humor!
In summary, Telestrations Original 8-Player is a whimsical, laughter-filled adventure where drawing skills take a backseat to creativity and fun. Whether you’re a budding artist or someone who thinks their doodles resemble stick figures, this game guarantees a fantastic time. So grab your markers, embrace your inner Picasso (or stick-figure artist), and get ready for a game night that will leave you and your friends laughing long after the final sketch is made!
- Reviewed in the United States on February 22, 2025Style: Board GameVerified PurchaseOkay, let me tell you, Telestrations is one of my favorite party games. We played it at our last friend's gathering, and I don't think I've laughed that hard in ages! It's basically the telephone game, but with drawings instead of whispers, and the results are absolutely hilarious. Like, seriously, tears-streaming-down-your-face funny.
Even if you think you can't draw (and trust me, I'm no Picasso!), that's kind of the point! The worse the drawings, the funnier the misinterpretations. We had everything from a "birthday cake" that turned into a "fire hydrant" to a "squirrel" that somehow morphed into a "flying taco." It's just pure, unadulterated fun for everyone, no matter their age or artistic ability.
The 8-player version is great, but honestly, if you usually have bigger groups, definitely go for the 12-player version. We had a few people sitting out and wishing they could join, and I can only imagine how much more chaotic and hilarious it would be with more players. It's perfect for game nights, parties, or just a fun get-together with friends. If you're looking for a game that will have everyone laughing until their sides hurt, Telestrations is a definite winner! Five stars, no question!
- Reviewed in the United States on March 30, 2025Style: Board GameVerified PurchaseThis game is a riot. So funny. It doesn't matter if you're an artist, that's what makes it more fun. Every time we have family over, we play and the laughs and tears are endless. Super easy to play.
- Reviewed in the United States on April 28, 2025Style: Board GameVerified PurchaseLove this game, and happy to support a Canadian small business.
- Reviewed in the United States on April 23, 2025Style: Board GameVerified PurchaseThis game was a great new addition to game night. Alot of great laughs and everyone enjoyed.
- Reviewed in the United States on February 8, 2025Style: Board GameVerified PurchaseA group of four played this game. Two of the four were meeting for what was kind of a semi first date, so I wanted a game that would keep everyone engaged and laughing. Telestrations did the trick! I had read where it's better with even larger groups but four of us had an exceptionally good time. We all appreciated the simple instructions and an abundant of laughs. Highly recommend
