Description (626 chars)

Are you ready to party with a bigger group? With the all new Telestrations Party Pack, you can have a LOL, side-splitting time with up to 12 people! Prepare for more players, more laughs, and more unpredictable results! The silly sketchin’ & guessin’ possibilities are endless! Combining the schoolyard favorite ‘telephone game’ with a drawing game, Telestrations has players draw what they see then guess what they saw. The result? The Big Reveal, where players get to share how “this” became “that!” The outcomes are unpredictable and sure to create a slide-splitting time!

Core verb
draw word, guess drawing
Decision shape
social
Reward schedule

Aesthetics
["Fellowship", "Expression"]
Core loop pitch
Sketch your prompt, pass; next player guesses your sketch, passes; reveal the chain of mistranslations.
Translation difficulty
Medium
Difficulty reason
Drawing chain is mechanically a perfect digital fit, but the payoff is the live big-reveal laughter — async loses the magic. The Op shipped an iOS app; Android was unpublished in 2024.
