Play a Pictionary-style game online, free
Love Pictionary but can't get everyone around one table? You Draw brings the same idea online: one person draws, everyone else shouts (well, types) their guesses. No board, no pens, no paper, and your friends can be anywhere.
How it compares to the board game
- Same idea: draw a secret word, no letters or numbers allowed, while others race to guess it.
- No referee needed: the game checks every guess, keeps the time and counts the points for you.
- Everyone plays every turn: instead of teams, every guesser scores, and faster guesses score more.
- Always new words: more than 1,700 words in easy, medium and hard, from “cat” to “photosynthesis”, plus your own.
- Bigger groups: up to 12 players in one room.

House rules, built in
Want a theme night? Add custom words: movies, animals, Christmas, your office, your class. With 10 or more custom words, the game uses only yours. Prefer easy words for kids at heart, or hard ones for the art school crowd? Pick the difficulty when you make the room.
Fair and friendly
Wrong guesses are visible, correct ones stay hidden so nobody can copy them. Players who spam or swear get muted, drawings can be reported, and a group can vote to kick someone who spoils the fun. If you stream your games, Streamer mode hides the word and the room code from your viewers.
Free, and no download
You Draw runs in any modern browser on phones, tablets and computers. Guests play straight away; a free account only keeps your stats.
