University Games Googly Eyes - Competition

Fun, laughter and good times are all guaranteed with latest board game release Googly Eyes from University Games. The laugh-a-minute game is all about drawing, but will teammates recognise each players sketches or will they be just scribbles stopping players from progressing on the board? With a pair of googly glasses and three different pairs of googly lenses, players make their way around the board with the aim of making it to the finish line first.

Jeopardy is thrown into the mix with the different coloured spaces on the board pairing up with the different strength googly lenses. With the Googly Eyes glasses on and the lenses in, players pick a playing card and have to draw the object matching to the colour while friends try to guess what on earth is being drawn. The googly lenses each drastically impair vision, making it much harder to draw, yellow is the easiest, then green and finally the blue lenses which leave the wearer struggling to find the paper and pencil.

With a recommended age of 7+, Googly Eyes is packed with laughter for the whole family from start to finish with plenty of picture opportunities for social media too. Each game comes complete with XX playing cards filled with objects to draw, a pair of googly glasses, three pairs of googly glasses, a countdown timer. You can purchase Googly Eyes for around £19.99 at leading retailers.
