What I want is a game where everyone is in the same position in terms of crafting skills, so players can concentrate on being imaginative instead. I also want it so there's no ambiguity in the descriptions arising from some poor soul having to sit down and write 200 cards, each with 5 or 6 things to draw on them (colour-coded by topic), with the result that players end up having to sketch "around the house" or "in the pink" in under a minute.
Here's how I'd do it...
Have a couple of pack of cards, one with adjectives and one with nouns. Have a list and use dice if you prefer. Pick one adjective and one noun and make the result out of Lego. Some people can draw and some people can't, but no-one can make anything half decent out of lego without using their imagination. Whatever dumb rules usually apply about going round a board or whoever has to guess the solution still apply.
There you go: a police dog! I should contact Lego and ask if they want to make a special set for this.
You can tell I spent a frustrating hour yesterday playing Speechless with my kids, can't you?
