Play Anticipation Online
NES Pictionary with chaotic dot drawings – guess fast, move your piece, and try not to argue over who gets the controller next.
Game Overview
Ever played Pictionary but wished it had more of that classic NES charm? Anticipation is basically that – a weirdly addictive board game where you race to guess what the heck the game is drawing from a bunch of dots. You start with this chaotic scatter of dots, then a pencil slowly connects them into... a shoe? A saxophone? First one to shout (or mash buttons) gets to move their piece forward. Land on a color, and that's your next category – though good luck guessing some of the 'natural' or 'math' ones before the timer runs out.
What's cool is how it scales – early rounds hold your hand with simpler shapes, but crank up the difficulty and suddenly half the dots are missing. Makes you realize how bad you are at recognizing abstract blobs. Also, fair warning: if you're playing with 3-4 friends, prepare for some controller wrestling matches since you'll be passing it around like a hot potato.
