LEGO Creationary Games

Product Information

Roll the LEGO® Dice to select one of four exciting building categories: vehicles, buildings, nature or things. It was created by Melbourne based mum to five, Nicole Avery who loves spreadsheets, routines and running. The rules describe four different ways to play: one person builds and everyone else guesses, one person guesses and as many of four people build, two teams play simultaneously – each with one builder, and race to be the first to identify the object being built; and finally everybody plays as one team, racing against the clock – one player building, everyone guessing, seeing how many items they can identify before the time (whatever time they decide on) has elapsed. We don’t share your credit card details with third-party sellers, and we don’t sell your information to others.

Reinforce that the aim is to build a structure that enables other players to guess correctly what you have built, you don’t have to have an image perfect replication of the arc de triomphe!Aside from the occasional laugh when a single white 2×4 is correctly guessed to be a husky sleigh, most of the time it will still take a completed design before players start getting close with their answers. Try building a pencil out of lego blocks and see how long it takes people to try to guess what it is suppose to be. With three levels of difficulty you can show off your building skills, while theothers guess what you are creating. In addition to normal and special bricks, these include the LEGO Games dice, partially brick-built as usual, two figures (one mini and one micro) and a host of game cards in three levels of difficulty.

Initially I was concerned that building LEGO (as opposed to sketching in Pictionary) would increase the lead time before guessing can start. Purchasing from the above links may result in a commission being paid to Rebrickable, but at no extra cost to you. But my son loooooves legos so when i saw lego creationary and read what the game was, I thought it was one of the coolest ideas for a board game ever. The objects run from easy to hard and you don't have to build exactly what is on the card--you just have to be able to get your team to guess it.During our “Tasting” of the game, we were fortunate to have one player who had never really played with LEGOs. We modified the rules to allow the preschooler to play – he could make anything he wanted, where as we had to build from the prompt on our cards.

The idea is that you draw a card and roll a dice (made of Lego, of course) to work out which item you have to build.In fact, a couple of mornings I have found him just playing with the pieces and building random items. I think this is a game best suited for ages 6 and up, my 5 year old plays but definately needs a little help. LEGO's latest game, LEGO Creationary is a fun, creative and interactive game that will keep you and your children entertained! I must confess I am usually somewhat challenged when greeted by a big box of random LEGO, as I much prefer to build things from a set of instructions. And it was a great excuse for some quiet family time sitting down around the table together, in-between a weekend that was otherwise full of birthday parties and sugar highs.

The game is similar to the game Pictionary where players pick a card at random and attempt to build one of the objects pictured on it. We are big LEGO fans here at Planning With Kids, so we were pretty excited to take the new LEGO Creationary Game through its paces. Don't stress if your comment doesn't appear immediately - sometimes I have to moderate comments thanks to spam visitors, but the comments from real readers will always get published. In addition to all 341 pieces, you get a sorting tray, which, given the intensity of having to build something as quickly as possible, proves to be a most constructive tool for the construction constructor. Planning With Kids is written on the lands of the Wurundjeri Woi Wurrung People, which includes the Gunung-Willam-Balluk clan, as the Traditional Custodians of this land.
