A Fake Artist Goes To New York
A Fake Artist Goes To New York by Jan Sasaki grabs your attention. Itâs a party game (about drawing) by Oink Games, who produce excellent products in tiny boxes. Theyâre by no means a gimmick; these are brilliant designs. The box is also hot pink, so not exactly subtle! And then thereâs those playing the game â theyâll be the ones crying with laughter.
One player is the Question Master. They pick a category (History) and then think of a word within that category (Henry VIII). In secret theyâll write this word down on individual dry-erase boards. But, on one of the boards, theyâll write an âXâ. Theyâll give these out, random, and still in secret, to all the other players. Now everyone has the same clue, except one player â the âFake Artistâ!
One at a time, each player has to draw one line or squiggle on a piece of paper in their own colour pen. Theyâll aim to contribute towards drawing the Question Masterâs clue. Of course, the Fake Artist doesnât know what theyâre supposed to be drawing! Youâll want your scrawls to be vague enough to thwart the Fake Artist. But, it needs to be subtle enough for everyone else to recognise itâŠ
Each artist will draw two separate lines over two rounds. Then, with a 3-2-1 count-down, everyone at once has to point at the Fake Artist. The Fake Artist and the Question Master win if the Fake Artist isnât picked. If the Fake Artist is guessed, but then cannot fathom what the actual word is, the artists score a victory.
A Fake Artist Goes To New York is a perfect appetiser or night cap to any gaming session. In fact, itâs so entertaining, itâs impossible to only play one round. Itâs the kind of party game you could play over and over, and over againâŠ
Player Count: 5-10 players
Time: 20 minutes
