Good evening, welcome in our #HomeschoolWithBoardGames: Googly Eyes Show Down from Goliath Games is what I chose to play because we’ve been busy and Charlie hasn’t been able to do anything fun this week.
Seeing the box and that we would need to wear glasses I knew this game would bring a lot of laughter and help us get rid of some of the stress we’ve been dealing with.
Get ready to be wild and wacky with Googly Eyes Showdown! It’s the epic battle that challenges your vision and will leave you googling for more! Teams of players put on the zany, vision-distorting glasses and start to draw while your team tries to guess what you’re drawing.
Players take turns drawing and guessing, so everyone gets a chance to wear the glasses. The glasses come with six sets of lenses that range from mild changes to mind-blowing fun, so no one can see (or draw) straight. Based on the best-selling Googly Eyes game.
- Players put on the vision distorting glasses and try to draw a challenge
- If you guess what your team member drew before time runs out, you win!
- Simple rules with fast gameplay and hilarious results
