Gameplay

Drawception is a combination of drawing with the classic telephone game rules. When a player starts a new game, they are either presented an image or a phrase that they have to draw/describe. The game follows a set of basic rules:

  • A game begins with a phrase or drawing, decided by the first player in the chain.
  • The second player describes/draws that drawing/phrase.
  • The third player describes/draws the second player's drawing/phrase.
  • The fourth player draws/describes the third player's drawing/phrase.
  • This repeats until a set number of players have participated.

    • Once a game has been completed, the players who participated are notified and can view the resulting chain of drawings and descriptions. Usually, the results may turn out very different from the phrase/drawing the game started from.

    The Art Store

    The Art Store is a virtual store inside Drawception where the player is allowed to buy cosmetic items for themselves, ranging from themes that give extra colors to power-ups that give you extra perks in games. The player can buy these items from coins, which they get from leveling up or with microtransactions.

    Items come in two types: consumables and permanent. Consumables can be bought multiple times, and can be used in games. When you use one up, the item disappears. Permanent items cost more than regular items, but once bought will they stay attached to your account and your profile. Keep in mind that items bought from one account will not transfer to a different account, as these items are bound to the user.

    Drawception has often been compared to games like Draw Something or Draw My Thing, which is noted to "combine the weird Pictionary-style guessing of Draw Something with the weird-to-weirder design of a game of Telephone.

    Trivia

    On March 3, 2015, The Drawfee Channel made a YouTube video called "We Play Drawception - DRAWMBAT"[1], which was the first video in their Drawception playlist.

    On February 22, 2016, Josiah Brooks, of Jazza Studios streamed himself playing Drawception on Twitch.tv. This resulted in his fans flooding the game with Jazza, by inserting his name and or character into their drawings. A video of the stream was uploaded to his Draw With Jazza YouTube channel on March 20.
