One word. One terrible drawing. Zero sense.
Telephone Pictionary is the draw-and-guess party game for 2 to 4 friends. A word turns into a drawing, the drawing turns into a completely different word, and by the end of the chain nobody remembers how it started.

Here's how the phone breaks
Five steps, zero setup. In less time than it takes to order pizza, you'll have a whole chain of nonsense to show off.
Write an impossible word
The weirder and more specific, the better. "Octopus doing yoga" always goes wrong, and that's exactly the point.
Someone draws it in 30 seconds
No erasing, no cheating, and no drawing skills required. The time limit does the rest.
The next player guesses the drawing
They write down the first thing that comes to mind, no matter how far it strays from the original idea.
It repeats until the end
Word, drawing, word, drawing... the chain grows and so does the chaos, round after round.
You see the whole chain
Everyone together, start to finish, to discover what monster the original idea turned into.
Everything the game brings
It's not just drawing and guessing: there are leaderboards, practice opponents, and a whole feed of other people's drawings to snoop through.
Lightning-fast matches
Every round takes under 5 minutes. Perfect for a quick game before bed or while waiting for food to arrive.
2 to 4 players
Great for family dinner, the group chat, or that hangout that just needed an excuse to laugh together.
Weekly, monthly and yearly leaderboards
Compete for the throne. Do you have what it takes to be the best artist... or the worst, which is famous too?
Bot mode
Practice alone, no pressure, before you go embarrass (lovingly) your friends in a real match.
Drawing feed
An endless parade of other players' drawings to rate. It's addictive even when you're not in a match.
Constant updates
New words, new modes and surprises on the way, so the chain is never short on chaos.
