Draw & Guess

One player draws the word, the others guess. One shared canvas, points for speed.

Goal and players

Pictionary supports 2 to 8 players. Take a free seat; once all seats are occupied, each player presses START. Players take turns drawing and guessing clues. The room determines the language of clues and answers, independently of button language.

Goal and players

Drawing order

After START, the first player chooses one of three clues within 15 seconds; otherwise the engine selects the first. Players then draw in seat order. After the last player, the order repeats.

Drawing and guessing

Illustrate the clue using the available colours and line widths. Undo your last stroke or clear the drawing when needed. Do not write the solution on the canvas. Others type guesses in the table chat. A correct clue or recognised alternative scores points. Once you guess correctly, you cannot score again for that clue. Spectators do not take part in guessing.

Time and hints

The settings determine drawing time. More clue letters are revealed as the turn progresses. The turn ends when time expires or all remaining active guessers solve it. A short answer reveal is followed by the next turn.

Points and finishing

Correct guesses score 10–40 depending on speed. The first correct guess gives the drawer that guesser's score plus 10, capped at 50. If nobody guesses correctly, the drawer loses 10. Scores appear beside the seats. After a turn reaches the selected target, the highest score among remaining players wins; tied leaders draw. Leaving means forfeiting. When one player remains, that player wins by forfeit. Everyone presses START to begin a new game. This is a casual game.
