A fairly quick one today. Game 7 of the “Games that Jack(8.) and I played at the UKGE” is “Pixel” (not to be confused by the sliding game released in 2007).
Now pixel is essentially a deck of photocards used to generate stories or play other games similar to what you might do with “Rory’s Story Cubes”
Apart from just using them to tell a story the “game” works by picking a word such as “cat” and then drawing 3 cards and then trying to think of words beginning with the letter of the word that matches the picture.
That’s kinda it there isn’t really a game.
The woman was fairly pushy who demoed it and to top it off they were selling them for £7.99 but when I checked online before writing this review the packs are £3.50 online (way to gouge them congoers).
So yeah get a pack of generalised top trumps instead
Equally, there are some good actual games following this idea like Concept/Concept Kids, mysterium/Mysterium Kids and Dixit.
