A skribbl.io alternative for games with your own people
If you have played skribbl.io, you already know how Drawdle works: one person draws, everyone else guesses in the chat, and the quickest right answer scores the most. Drawdle is made for playing with people you know, on whatever device they have with them.
Try Drawdle freeWhat you get

- Your own words. Up to 500, mixed in or used on their own.
- Word packs you won't find elsewhere, like Desi and Corporate slang.
Moving your group over
- Open drawdle.in, type your name and create a room.
- Paste your old custom word list into “Your own words”. Comma-separated lists work as they are.

A player spoiling the game? The host can remove them, and the other players can vote them out.
When skribbl.io is the better pick
Drawdle has no public lobby. If you want to drop into a game with strangers at any hour, skribbl.io is still the place. If you would rather play with your friends, family, classmates or team, that is what Drawdle is for.
And if your group likes chaos more than scores, Gartic Phone is worth a look: drawings get passed along like a game of telephone. Drawdle sticks to the classic: draw it, guess it.
