How to play
Pictionary with a twist: everyone is secretly assigned another player and draws their portrait against the clock. The portraits go up in the gallery one at a time and the room guesses who each one is supposed to be.
- The host opens a room and everyone joins from the invite link.
- When the host starts, each player is secretly assigned someone to draw — nobody draws themselves, and everyone gets drawn exactly once.
- Draw your subject on the canvas before time runs out, then submit.
- Portraits appear one at a time. Everyone but the artist guesses who it depicts. 1 point per correct guess.
- With the artist bonus on, the artist also scores a point for every player who recognized their portrait.
A few tips for a great game
- Go for the recognizable detail — the glasses, the mug, the haircut — not fine art.
- Shorter drawing time is funnier. 2–3 minutes is the sweet spot.
- Your assignment is secret, so angle your screen away while you draw.
