Combined Monster Drawing: Rules and How to Play
A drawing game for 2–8 people. Connect the ends of hidden drawings to create one monster per player, then reveal them together. Free in your browser.
Setup
- For 2–8 people, each on their own device. No CPU players.
- The host chooses 30, 45, 60 or 90 seconds per part. The default is 60 seconds.
- Each sheet has one topic, shared by everyone who draws it. Topics can be turned off in settings.
How to play
- Everyone draws at the same time and taps Done to submit. Submitted drawings cannot be changed.
- Pass the sheets to draw the head, body and feet. Two players draw an upper and lower half. Nobody draws on the same sheet twice.
- Only the bottom edge of the previous part is visible. Extend lines to the bottom for the next person. If there are no connecting lines, draw freely.
- Use the pen, eraser, 24 colours, sizes, undo, redo and clear.
- When all players submit, continue immediately. Disconnected players keep their chance until the deadline. At the deadline, send the drawing so far. Allow three seconds for the final send; missing entries become timed-out blanks. You can also submit blank.
Winning and scoring
- Show each topic first, then reveal its monster from the top down. Continue when all connected players confirm, or after ten seconds.
- There are no points, winners or rankings. After the reveal, browse independently. The host can start another round with Play again.
