Pickles to Penguins! Travel Edition -The Quick-Thinking Picture-Linking Party Game – for 2 or More Players Ages 8 and up by Outset

I was looking for a quick game for my class and this was so much fun!

Look at the pictures and make a link between one in your hand and one on the table - sounds easy but without using colours and sounds it can make for a great imagination, quick thinking, quick talking game. Can be played cooperatively for the younger players or as a race to finish with older players. We love it and the more the kids play it the faster the thinking becomes, although we do veto some links are they are too much of a stretch!!

The deck comes with rules for various different games, most of which aren't very fun. But I found that these cards are excellent for making games or for using as flash cards for little kids. The fun images and colors are an excellent teaching tool. I also found it was much more fun to turn this game into a story telling game by shuffling the deck and flipping a card. One person must start the story using whatever is on the card and stop at some point in the story then flip a new card on the next person and they have to continue the story using the new word. It's a lot of fun!

I am a speech therapist, and this is a great way to end the week with my students. You have find a similarity between two items, and sometimes you need to be very creative. They are portable, sturdy, convenient and fun!

I have teenagers. Enough said. Getting them to play games, let alone have FUN playing a game, is virtually impossible. We were going on a short trip, and I ordered this on a whim because I was looking for something that would be easy for my autistic 14-year old to participate in. Little did I know that it would be my other two teens who would play this for over an hour. They love teasing each other and pushing each other's buttons, and this game did the trick. We were all laughing so hard, my daughter was crying and I had to "pause" the game so we could all reset. The more ridiculous the connection, the better. A bird and a hairbrush? "A bird would pull hair out of your hairbrush to put in its nest." A car and a dinosaur? "You could outrun a dinosaur in a car like they did in Jurrasic Park'." Are those "legal" connections? Probably not, but the creativity and sheer ridiculousness of the answers it what makes this a fun and unique game.

I love this game in concept, and have even had a few successful rounds of it with my son and nieces (age 9, 10, 11). But my god... Some of the comparisons they tried to come up with just to get rid of their cards were insane. Like so insane I could barely come up with my own because I spent so much time telling them their comparisons weren't valid. Maybe after a few more rounds where EVERYONE can help monitor the comparisons and not just me, it'll become fun and not a chore for me.

Good for traveling; discovered it on a trip. Almost-seven-year-old obsessed with it. Great find, perfect condition, prompt shipping , definitely order from this vendor again. Thanks.

The game comes with instructions for different games. My granddaughter and I modified the instructions to make it easier for her.The pictures are bright and colorful.I like the game but rarely have someone here who wants to play games so I’m trying yo make up a solitaire game. Maybe the manufacturer could include one in future printing.

It's an easy to use really fun game. Helps to teach quick association between pictures.No reading required so learning disabilities are eliminated from learning this game.Dislike: coming in second.

A fun game but not suitable as a gift because the box was ripped when I opened the package.
