About the game
Ever wondered what happens when you mix the precision of LEGO building with the absolute chaos of a real-time race? That's the heart of Brick Like This! This game turns building blocks into a frantic competition of communication and agility. Players split into pairs, with each team consisting of an 'Instructor' and a 'Builder'. The Instructor is the only one who can see the Shape Card, and their sole mission is to guide the Builder on how to assemble the model as quickly as possible. The catch? The Builder is flying blind and must rely entirely on the Instructor's descriptions to snap the bricks together.

The energy is electric because all teams play simultaneously. There's no waiting for your turn; it's a head-to-head race where every second counts. The tension peaks as you struggle to describe colors and positions while watching the team next to you finish their build. The game spans six rounds, and the team with the most points—earned by being the fastest and most accurate—claims the victory. It's the perfect icebreaker, a great way to test a couple's synergy, or a funny way to find out which of your friends is actually good at giving directions (and who just confuses everyone). With simple rules and beloved components, the focus isn't on complex strategy, but on motor coordination, verbal clarity, and the hilarity of seeing builds go completely wrong in the heat of the moment.
