How to Play
One player draws a word while others guess what they're sketching. Use your mouse to draw and type your guesses in the chat. Each correct guess earns points, and the artist gets points for stumping players. Multiple rounds continue until everyone has had a chance to draw.

Tips & Tricks
- Draw big, bold lines to make your sketches clearer and give your teammates better chances at guessing correctly.
- Pay attention to drawing patterns early—if you spot someone's style, you might guess faster in later rounds.
- Use simple shapes and obvious features first, then add details if time allows for more specific clues.
- Customize the word list before playing to make the game harder, easier, or more themed to your group's humor.
