Average Playtime: 40 Minutes
In Concept, your goal is to guess words through the association of icons. A team of two players – neighbours at the table – choose a word or phrase that the other players need to guess. Acting together, this team places pieces judiciously on the available icons on the game board. A Pictionary-esque party game with many images and abstract icons for you to clue into your teammates. A player draws a card from the Concept deck and chooses one word for their team to guess. The clue giver places a Question Marker for the main element of the word and subsequent cubes for further description. You can now use the exclamation marker for a sub-concept and more cubes for that description... all while without a speaking a word.
