I have decided not to allow websites other than Gamefaqs (www.gamefaqs.com),
IGN (faqs.ign.com) & Gamespot (www.gamespot.com) to host my FAQs from now on.
Please don't ask, because I will not grant permission. It's just that too many
sites don't keep their version of my FAQ up to date which makes for a lot of
hassle in my mailbox.
So if anyone sees this FAQ on any site other than those mentioned above, please
let me know and I will take care of the situation, thanks.
Just to make things crystal clear for some people, this FAQ is not to appear
anywhere at the following URLs:

(B) CONTROLS
###############################################################################
The controls for this game are very simple, and are as follows:
D-Pad - Moves the cursor.
A - Enter letters.
B - Erase letters.
Start - Start the game, confirm menu choices.
Select - Change menu options.
###############################################################################
(C) THE GAME
###############################################################################
There isn't really much to say, the game is based on the Pictionary board game.
Both players start on the same square on the board and the first team attempts
to draw a picture based on a clue. If his team correctly guesses the clue,
then this team gets to roll the dice and advance along the board. If the team
fails to guess correctly, then the other team gets a chance to draw and guess.
The game plays much in this way until a team reaches the final square on the
board and successfully guesses the clue to win the game.
The squares on the board have different colours, and the colour decides which
minigame you will play.
Otherwise there are 3 possible modes that you can play, which are described
below.
-------
Regular
-------
In this mode you get to play a minigame against a timer on each turn. Each
time you do something correct in these minigames you will reveal one piece of a
drawing [each drawing is a 6x8 size and has 48 pieces to it] If you do
something wrong in the minigame, then you will lose a chunk off of your timer.
Once you fully reveal the drawing, run out of time, or press start to abort the
minigame you will reach the next screen.
At this point you are given the number of letters for the clue and you must
correctly guess the clue within 45 seconds, based on how much of the drawing
you revealed from the minigame. After all of this has taken place, the game
resumes like normal.
-----------
Alternative
-----------
In this mode the game doesn't give you ANY clues and there are no minigames.
Each team makes up their own clues and starts to draw them manually [be sure to
try the drawing practice mode before playing this mode]. The drawing team
guesses the drawing until they get the clue correct or run out of time. You
then choose the winning team [if any] with 'select' and the game continues in
the usual way.
----------------
Drawing Practice
----------------
Here you get to try your hand at drawing without the pressures of a timer or
another team.
Simply use 'A' to start drawing in a straight line, while you turn your drawing
tool with left/right on the dpad. If you use 'B' you will move the drawing
tool forward without drawing. Finally, you can use 'select' to erase the last
line that you made and press 'start' to exit back to the main screen.
###############################################################################
(D) MINIGAMES
###############################################################################
There are 4 minigames in Pictionary, and each one is described with some
strategies below.
--------------
Paint Invaders
--------------
This minigame is like a slightly altered version of the game Space Invaders.
The difference is that you fire downwards at the aliens and you can have a
maximum of 2 shots on the screen at any given time. Fire rapidly and move
constantly while keeping an eye on the enemies' green shots.
------------
Box Delivery
------------
This is one of the easiest minigames to win and basically involves moving boxes
from the left side of the screen to the right side.
There are 2 green enemies that bounce around the room diagonally, and they are
the hazards that you want to avoid. They can't hurt your player directly, but
if they touch one of your boxes, then you will lose that box AND a chunk from
your timer.
For this reason you should NEVER stack your boxes to the highest, which is 5
boxes tall. The more boxes that you stack, the slower your player moves and
the more likely it is that his stack will get hit by the enemies.
A stack that is 4 boxes tall is rarely useable but sometimes you'll see that
the enemies are bouncing just right to let you sneak it across. I recommend
sticking with stacks of 1-2 boxes when you first start out. Otherwise you
should be just fine with stacks 3 boxes high most of the time.
As far as controls go, you use the dpad to move the player across the screen.
You use up/down on the dpad at the left side of the screen to build your stack.
-------------
Space Mission
-------------
In this game you're moving and jumping to collect blue spheres.
The sphere only appears in one of 6 possible locations
1. Left end on the ground.
2. Middle of the ground.
3. Right end on the ground.
4. On the left pillar.
5. On the middle pillar.
6. On the right pillar.
Collect the spheres while avoiding the aliens that bounce out of the two pipes
between the pillars.
-----------
Fire Rescue
-----------
This is the only minigame where it's IMPOSSIBLE to avoid every hazard, which
tends to make it harder than the others at times. This also means that you get
to play god and decide which people's lives are worth more and who is worth
saving and who will be left painting the pavement. If it's any consolation,
the game treats people that you miss from the second floor the same as those
you miss from the first floor.
Basically you control a pair of firemen on the ground with a net. You need to
move back and forth and catch the jumping people above on the net to reveal a
piece of the drawing.
You will see people appear in a window before they climb out and jump, so you
have a bit of warning. Sometimes more than one person will come out of the
same window, one right after the other, so watch for it. Otherwise you want to
keep moving and watch the windows so you know where you need to be next.
Some people WILL hit the ground and there's nothing that you can do about it,
but try to move so that there's as few of these misses as possible.
eg: If there's 3 people about to fall on the left side of the screen but one
has appeared on the far right, you shouldn't go right to get that single person
as the other three fall. Instead, you should save the three people on the left
and ignore the single person on the right.

For a little while now I've had a paypal link in all my FAQs at the very bottom
here. Mainly as a small experiment since a few other FAQ authors have also had
the same idea.
I had a few people email me before I put this link in because they wanted to
send money, so it's here for those people.
For the record I've received about $87 (which works out to a bit more in
Canadian lol) last I checked, so I've been getting cases of pop and making some
excellent progress on a few FAQs.
If you don't want to send money or can't then send me an email, it's nice to
hear what people thought about my work and there's always room for improvement.
My email address and paypal address for those that want to contribute are both
dan.engel.2017 (AT) gmail (DOT) com
Many thanks, and I hope you continue to use my work!
