Read the full game description

Everyone is an artist in Picassimo! Paint and exchange parts to create your masterpiece. Be the best at painting and guessing to win the game. Picassimo includes nine hundred terms for use in the game, with three levels of playing difficulty. Description from the publisher: Everyone is an artist! In Picassimo, the markers will be cheerfully brandished and true masterworks created by exchanging individual sections. But wait a minute! Is that supposed to be a goblin? Or rather a chicken? The player who can draw well and also keep one step ahead by guessing correctly, collects the most points and wins the game! 1. All the players draw at the same time. Each player secretly chooses a term from their card and draws it on their erasable drawing board. 2. Is everyone ready? Then a transformation card is turned up. It will show which sections of each artwork are to be exchanged. 3. Picassimo! Who can recognize what the other players have drawn? Description from the publisher (German): Jeder ist ein Künstler! Daher werden bei Picassimo munter die Stifte geschwungen und durch das Vertauschen einzelner Teile wahre Meisterwerke geschaffen. Doch Moment! Soll das ein Kobold sein? Oder doch ein Huhn? Wer gut malen kann und auch beim Erraten der Kunstwerke die Nase vorn hat, sammelt die meisten Punkte und gewinnt das Spiel! Ein total verdrehtes Malspiel. 1. Alle malen gleichzeitig: Jeder sucht sich geheim einen Begriff auf seiner Karte aus und bringt ihn auf seinem abwischbaren Malboard zum Ausdruck. 2. Sind alle fertig? Dann wird eine Vertausch-Karte aufgedeckt. Sie zeigt welche Teile eines jeden Kunstwerks vertauscht werden. 3. Picassimo! Wer erkennt jetzt noch, was die Mitspieler gemalt haben?! besonders abwechslungsreich: mit 900 Begriffen von einfach bis verzwickt: 3 Schwierigkeitsstufen
