Why The Fake Artist Goes to New York Is the Right Buy Right Now

The Fake Artist Goes to New York is a drawing game with a twist. All players but one know what you are drawing, and everyone takes turns adding a single line to a shared picture. The fake artist has no idea what the subject is, and has to bluff their way through. At the end, everyone tries to spot the faker.

It is wonderfully silly, requires no drawing skill, and works brilliantly for a larger group.

Why 7 Players Is the Sweet Spot

Enough Lines to Hide In

With seven players, the faker has a good chance of blending in, while the others have enough clues to spot them. At five, it can feel a bit exposed.

More Suspicion

Seven means more potential suspects and more arguments about who drew what. The accusations are half the fun.

A Great Party Size

Seven is a lively group, and the game keeps everyone involved with no long waits.

What About 5-6 or 8-10?

Smaller groups are quicker, and larger groups are chaotic. Seven is the best balance of bluff and clarity.

Who Should Buy It?

• Party hosts
• Families with teens
• Fans of bluffing and drawing games
• Anyone who cannot draw (this game is for you)

What Will It Cost?

It usually costs around 150-250 kr. That is about the price of a pizza, with much better doodles.

Verdict: A Masterpiece (Possibly)

If you want a hilarious drawing game for a bigger group, The Fake Artist Goes to New York is a great buy. Please do not draw your lines too obviously.
