Pick Me Up! is a board game released in 2016 for 1–4 players, 10–20 minutes per game, and ages 6 and up. It was designed by Dave Choi and its main mechanics are Dice Rolling and Pattern Recognition.
Welcome to the crazy claw machine! Pick Me Up! is a fast recognition game with funny pickers and cute artwork. This game will lead you to a boisterous party! To play, shuffle all of the tiles, then place them at random in the twelve spaces of the plastic tray. Each player takes a "picker" that can pick up the tiles and make sounds. One player rolls the three dice, with the dice having three colors, 3 kinds of eyes, and 3 kinds of numbers. After seeing the dice, everybody races to find tiles that match all three symbols on the dice, picking them up as quickly as they can. If no matching tiles are in the tray, raise your picker and say "Beep-beep!"; whoever is slowest to do so loses one tile that they've collected. As soon as the grid has five empty spaces in it, the game ends and whoever has collected the most tiles wins!
Pick Me Up! supports 1–4 players according to the catalogue. This range comes from the publisher’s listed player count, so the game can be set up for any group size within it. Some setups, rules and scoring details may still vary by player count, so check your edition’s rulebook for the exact configuration.
The listed playing time for Pick Me Up! is 10–20 minutes. This is the publisher’s estimate for a full game. The actual duration depends on the group, the player count and familiarity with the rules: first sessions usually run longer, while experienced groups often finish faster. Setup and teaching time are not included in this estimate.
The catalogue lists Pick Me Up! for ages 6 and up. This is the publisher’s recommendation and reflects reading demands, rule complexity and small components rather than theme alone. Younger players can often join with help from an adult, so check the age guidance on your edition and consider your group’s experience with board games.
Pick Me Up! has a complexity rating of 1.0 out of 5 from BoardGameGeek players, which makes it a light game. The rating reflects how much rules knowledge, planning and decision-making a typical game demands. Expect a longer first teach for heavier games, and use a preparation guide before game night.
