Game play

• Each round, every player is given a different thing to draw.
• Players have one minute to draw their pictures,
• Timers start at the moment they begin drawing.
• When all drawings have been drawn, they are dealt out in turn.

Guessing

• For each drawing, everyone except for the artist makes a private guess of what they think the drawing is of.

Voting

• When all guesses are in, the guesses are displayed to all the players, along with the original prompt that the artist was given.
• If multiple entries are very similar, players may vote to say that these should be treated as the same, single answer for scoring.
  • For example: if one entry is "ice tray" and another is "icecube tray".
• Players vote on which they think was the original prompt.

Scoring

• Votes are revealed.
• Guessers score 1 point for everyone who chose their guess.
• The artist scores 1 point for everyone who chose their original prompt.
• Note: the default BGA scoring method does not give points for correct guesses.
  • It is up to the table administrator to decide this before the game begins.

Game length

• Usually 3 to 5 rounds.
• Each round every player submits one drawing.
