The package is misleading, you must have a screen sharing method for this to work as it is supposed to.

It's fun to play when you can view your phone's screen on your TV. It wasn't clear to me when I first bought it from the description. It's just a stylus that works through an app on your phone. Getting it onto a TV screen isn't their problem, and as such it's a little laggy and a little unreliable to get it working properly. It's a good idea and theory, but it needs more development and work to actually be as fun as you think it is.

Pros
  • Ideal for outdoor activities
Cons
  • Slightly wrinkled

Everyone has fun

6 people aged 9 to 51 played the game. It took us a while to realize that the iPad we wanted to play on only had a front-facing camera, so the stylus couldn't read. It is necessary to use a device with the camera pointing away from the place where the person drawing can see the images they are creating. I hope that makes sense. After a few rounds, everyone realized how big they could pull. If you're having trouble "streaming" the game on your TV, look for YouTube videos related to your TV. That

Pros
  • Inspires confidence
Cons
  • Protection

Battery compartment defective - no exchange

Bought in September, everything seems to be in order. I'm saving it for Famiky game night in November. Just checked and there is something wrong with the battery compartment for the pen. The battery in it just got loose and it doesn't work. I even tried my own batteries. There seems to be something missing to hold the battery in place as sometimes they have those little springs. Anyway, I went online to return it for a new one and it says I only had until 26th October to return it as I boughtโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Delivery was very fast
Cons
  • Almost everything ok

Bugs, but they can be fixed if the developers listen:

This game has huge potential. We had fun, but we had to change it. I will continue to follow what needs to be done to fix this: 1. Add the ability to choose a camera (selfie or external) for the game.2. Set it so that performing a series of f-clicks or touching any part of the screen will clear the bard. That's all. Do it and it will be amazing. Now for the explanation: 1. It's fun in selfie mode. We like to project it onto a TV and watch it on TV. The problem is that there are no commands andโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Decent performance
Cons
  • Expensive

Fun if you can set it up

It's a lot of fun if you have the perfect setup but I've played it at a few locations at different times of the day now and found the right lighting to get the camera to go Picking up the pen and not all the rest can be a real test. Maybe the different colors you can switch will help you? A few other buttons on the stylus also improve the experience significantly. Having a phone set up in a neutral place instead of having someone hold it who keeps hitting reset, which half the time doesn'tโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Dope ๐Ÿ”ฅ
Cons
  • Safety
