As a game-loving family we were thrilled when Wonder Forge asked us to review their game Pictopica Disney Edition. We had a blast playing as a family and recommend this game for ages 7 and older. That being said, although game play may be too difficult for younger children, our 4-year-old was able to answer a lot of the questions and worked with me to play and got really wrapped up in the fun.
players “wager” coins valued 1 to 5 (spaces on the board) based on how well they think they know the images on the card shown to them. Those images depict possible answers to the question that may be asked. Sometimes players answer questions on their own and other times they work as a team. Players who answer correctly advance their game token toward the finish.
- The questions were fun and encompassed a wide variety of Disney entertainment properties. They weren’t too difficult for my kids but not so easy that there wasn’t a bit of drama.
- I love how Wonder Forge’s games include team work. Their Star Wars Rebel Missions game is all about team work and I think games like this are a lot of fun for families–especially siblings who can often be competitive with one another.
- The game is very well constructed with durable pieces, cards and game tokens.
- The game didn’t take us that long to play–and with little kids, long games like Monopoly and Life can be a bit much for family game night.
- There are more questions than I can count and I can’t imagine ever repeating a question during the times we will be playing in the future!

Even though I’m a relaly big fan of Tim Burton and Nightmare before Christmas, I don’t like what they do with the HM between October and early January. My reason for not liking it is that I think that they desecrate a classic attraction that should keep its theme throughout the year. I think that it was very nice to add the floating Leota and other new effects, classic attractions needs updates from time to time, but to completely alter it I think that it’s almost a heresy. Besides, most times I go to DL are between October and early January, so I relaly miss the original HM version, as all the time I go there the Mansion is either in its Nightmare version or closed for removing it. They should do a new Nightmare attraction and leave the Mansion alone! But the video is nice anyway, thanks for posting!
