Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I purchased this game at Target on Black Friday after seeing it in their ad. I read the bos at the store and thought it would be a great game. I love Pictionary but I'm not good at drawing.
When I got the purchase home, I put in the DVD and watched the "How to Play." As on the front of the box, it showed SKETCHES being done to guess the answer. When I went to play the game, there are NOT sketches. It takes an image from a Disney movie, blurs it until it is impossible to guess what it is and give you 15 seconds to guess. It takes until it gets down to about 3 seconds left to know what it is. At the point that you can tell what it is, it goes from being blurry to being so obvious that everyone can tell what it is and answers at the exact same time.
The product is not AT ALL what it is described as.
Additionally, it is supposedly broken up into 2 levels "Classic Disney" and newer pictures (don't remember the actual title of this section) but it was described as having things from newer films, such as the Disney-Pixar collaborations. We played Classic Disney because some of the people playing hadn't seen the newer Pixar movies. However, there were characters from Lilo and Stitch, Mulan, and Monsters, Inc. which are definitely not Classic Disney.
My final issue, still relating to "Classic Disney" is the specific detail expected for the level supposedly for children as young as 7. One of the pictures we had for "Thing" was a still movie image of Mary Poppins from the waist up holding her umbrella and the correct answer was "Mary Poppin's Hat."
The game that we expected to be fun turned out to just be frustrating. I'm selling it on Ebay.

Speed, not artistry, is the key to Pictionary games aimed at the younger set. Playing out like charades except by drawing on paper rather than flailing around, this party game has been popular for more than 20 years now. The Disney DVD version is geared toward kids and has been created with hundreds of characters, places, and things from the vaults of the renowned kid-friendly empire.
In this classic game of quick draw, players try to correctly guess the identity of words and phrases that are being sketched before anyone else. It takes a quick hand and good guesswork to beat out opponents who are thinking along the same lines as you. To make the fun even more engaging, there is an included DVD with this version that provides a new twist. When a game card reads "DVD," have the disc ready in a player, grab the remote, and be prepared to shout out your answer first as a studio animator draws images for you to see on your television screen.
There are hundreds of animated clues on the DVD, and the game offers two play levels. When younger children are included, level one uses classic Disney animation. Level two features more recent Disney movies as well as Pixar animation for an added challenge. Also on the DVD are live action clips and snippets of animated movies for total family enjoyment.
