What you get here
Classic
Write, draw, describe, repeat. The telephone game as you know it.
Knock-off
A drawing is shown for 7 seconds, then you redraw it from memory, and the clock gets faster.
Complement
Everyone scribbles a few lines, then each turn you finish a different first scribble. One scribble, many drawings.
A real drawing pad
Brush, flood fill, eraser, 18 colours, 4 sizes and undo. Works with touch, pen and mouse, and drafts are saved when time runs out.
Albums to keep
Reveal the albums automatically or at the host's pace, then download any drawing.
