Cranium
Cranium is a party game for teams, created by Whit Alexander and Richard Tait and billed as the game for your whole brain. Each turn your team takes on a card from one of four decks: Creative Cat (draw it or sculpt it in clay), Data Head (trivia), Word Worm (unscramble, spell and define) and Star Performer (act it out, whistle a tune or do an impression). It borrows bits of charades, Pictionary and trivia games and squeezes them into one board game.
- Players 4+
- Play time 60 min
- Difficulty Easy
- Type Party, Word and trivia

About the game
Gobgob sculpted a giraffe out of clay. Their team guessed 'lamp'.
Gobgob's favourite bit: The Creative Cat cards that make you draw with your eyes closed. The masterpieces that come out of those belong in a gallery. Possibly a very strange one.

Missing pieces and damage
