A free drawing game to play with friends online
You Draw is a multiplayer draw and guess game that runs in your browser. One player draws a secret word, everyone else races to guess it. Make a private room, send your friends the link, and you're playing in under a minute.
How a game works
- Draw: on your turn, pick one of three words (easy, medium or hard) and draw it before the timer runs out.
- Guess: when someone else draws, type your guesses in the chat. The faster you guess, the more points you score.
- Hints: letters of the word appear as time runs out, and “so close!” tells you when you're one letter away.
- Win: after the last round, the podium shows the winners and awards like 🎨 Picasso for the most-liked drawings.
Play with your friends in a private room
Press Create room, choose 2–8 rounds, 40–120 seconds of drawing time and the word difficulty, then share the room code or invite link. Up to 12 players fit in one room. There's nothing to install and nobody needs an account, so even the friend who “doesn't do games” can join from their phone.
Make it yours with custom words
Add your own words, separated by commas: inside jokes, friends' names, movie titles, words from this week's lesson or your company's products. They mix with the 1,700+ built-in words, or, with 10 or more, you can play with only yours.
Great for…
- Game night and parties: a fast, loud party game that everyone understands in ten seconds.
- Video calls: share the link on Zoom, Teams, Discord, Google Meet or FaceTime and play while you talk.
- Remote teams: an easy ice breaker or team-building game, with custom words about your work.
- Classrooms: practise vocabulary in any subject with a custom word list (players must be 13 or older).
- Families far apart: grandparents on a tablet, cousins on a laptop, everyone in the same game.
