THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

CHICAGO -- WMS Industries Inc. said it plans to make slot machines themed on the board game PICTIONARY.

These slots join JUMBLE and SCRABBLE in WMS's Puzzle Pays series of participation games.

The PICTIONARY board game was created in 1985 by Rob Angel. The board game, known as the classic "game of quick draw," challenges players to get their team to guess a secret word. One "picturist" has 60 seconds to draw a picture of the secret word while his teammates shout out their guesses.

More than 40 million PICTIONARY board games have been sold.
