STATEMENT REGARDING PICTURES (translated)
The material sets in “Pictures” initially appear to be almost randomly thrown together, but in reality, they are chosen wisely: each set challenges the players in a different way, so the incentive to experiment is enormous. The results are often astonishing, which is why the guessing sessions quickly resemble visiting art exhibitions: with great aha moments and amusing attempts to justify the misunderstood artist genius. Great creativity with the simplest.
