Race against your rivals in a chaotic, fast-talking structural sprint that utilizes a shared pool of real LEGO® bricks and a ruthless, time-crushing panic button for the ultimate communication showdown.
Brick Like This! (designed by Luca Bellini and published by Dotted Games in official partnership with LEGO) acts as the spiritual, high-speed successor to LEGO Creationary. Moving entirely away from slow, turn-based guessing or intricate 3D architectural models, this real-time party game relies heavily on frantic verbal coordination. Operating in pairs—one Instructor and one Builder—all teams simultaneously race to replicate secret, flat 2D silhouettes using a shared chaotic mess of bricks in the center of the table.
The primary hurdle lies in translating a visual puzzle using nothing but your words while the clock actively ticks down. Each round, the Instructor draws a hidden Shape Card that shows a specific silhouette at an exact 1:1 scale. The catch? The Instructor is forbidden from pointing, gesturing, or touching the pieces—they must purely use verbal cues to guide their partner's hands. The second a team thinks their model perfectly matches the target image, they shout "DONE!" and flip a 30-second sand timer, forcing every other pair at the table into a panicked scramble to complete their own builds before their time evaporates. True accuracy is verified at the end of the round by physically laying the finished plastic build directly over the card's silhouette to check for flawless alignment. To level the playing field or sabotage veterans, you can throw in chaotic Challenge Cards that impose brutal communication constraints—like forcing the Instructor to only say "YES" or "NO," or requiring the Builder to keep their eyes completely shut. It is a masterclass in clean, hyper-accessible party design that converts basic spatial reasoning and frantic shouting into a brisk 15-to-30 minute session.
