Sketch & Guess: how to play

One player draws, everyone else races to type the word.

Each turn

  1. The drawer picks one of three words (15 seconds, or the first one is picked).
  2. They draw it on the canvas. No letters or numbers!
  3. Everyone else types guesses. Wrong guesses show up in the feed, so others can see what you're thinking. The right word is never shown.
  4. As time runs out, a couple of letters are revealed as hints.

The turn ends when time is up or everyone has guessed it. Every player draws once per round.

Scoring

  • Guessers: 50 to 100 points, more the faster you get it.
  • Drawer: +25 for every player who guesses it.

Needs everyone on their own device (phones work great).

Drawing tips

  • Start with the big shape, add details later.
  • Draw arrows to point at the important part.
  • Stuck? Clear and try a different idea.
