Description Edit | History

From the box:

Look into the ThinkBlot images. How many things can you spot? Do you see a praying mantis or a pair of scissors? Is it an eggshell or a crown? Look closer. There are hundreds of ways to interpret the images!

Can you convince the other players to see what you see? The more you see and persuade, the more you score!

More Information Edit | History

To play, each player looks at a picture of Inkblots on a page (similar to ones on the box lid) of which there are 75 pages of them to choose from. A special die is rolled which tells you the category to look for eg Food, Creatures, People, Wearables etc. You now have a time limit to look at the picture and write down as many things in that category that you see. At the end of the time each player reads their picture list and shows which inkblot the picture relates to. To score a point, the majority of the other players must agree that they see what you see
and you must persuade them if you can. This often leads to amusement, as you find out rather quickly that what you see clearly is not what the other players are seeing.
