ONLINE PICTIONARY

Being inside doesn’t you mean can’t play games with friends

skribbl.io (pronounced like scrib-leo) is a free online pictionary game you can play with friends and family. The way the game is played is simple, one person gets a word they have to draw using their computer mouse and everybody else has to type in what it is! The quicker you are to guess correctly, the more points you get!

To setup your own game, navigate to ‘https://skribbl.io/‘ and click on the blue ‘Create Private Room’ button.

Make sure you put in your name first and customise your little avatar with the arrows.

Once setup, you’ll have some settings to the left which you can change to alter how fast the game goes, but most importantly you have your invite link at the bottom of the screen.

Copy this link and then send it to your friends and they can put in their name and click ‘Play!’ Once everybody is ready, hit the ‘Start Game’ button.

Once in, somebody will be asked to pick a word from 3 choices and start drawing! Everybody else then has to type in their answers in the bottom right corner. Be careful though, if you misspell the word such as ‘pudle’ instead of ‘puddle’ it’ll show and give everybody else a big hint!

Once you guess the right answer, it’ll hide it so that it doesn’t give it away.

Top tip: Play this while in a group call or video chat so that you can all chat and laugh at any funny or great drawings.

In the constant search for social interaction and fun during isolation due to the coronavirus pandemic, people have taken to video conferencing to catch up and have fun.

They’re using services like Zoom and Google Hangouts, which we’ve reviewed to tell you which ones are best. But it turns out you can do a lot more than chat on camera.

Pictionary Game Online Multiplayer

There are fun games and activities you can do (besides putting a funny background on in Zoom) to have a laugh or two to pass the time. So here are a few ideas we’ve seen put into action over the last few weeks:

1. Jackbox Games

We’ve been over this one. If someone has purchased Jackbox, he or she can share their screen and allow others to remotely log in to play. As long as everyone can see the screen, they can use their phones to play along.

2. Charades

An easy one with people on camera.

3. Crossword puzzles

They should take no time at all!

4. Watching television together

I just got invited to my first Netflix party using, well, Netflix Party (which is a Google Chrome extension that allows people to watch a show/movie at the same time with a chat attached).

5. A talent show

Shout-out to my family for suggesting this one for our next big call.

6. Karaoke

Obviously!

7. Pictionary

H/T to Elite Daily for this idea. You can use a Zoom whiteboard for it:

To use Zoom’s whiteboard, you’ll want to click the share screen button located in your meeting toolbar, select the whiteboard, and click share. You should then see annotation tools that will let you use your mouse to draw as you would for Pictionary. You can take turns sharing the screen’s whiteboard depending on who’s turn it is, and you can put some in charge of keeping time for the person who is drawing.

8. Yoga

Have one person share screen on a YouTube class, and there you have it.

9. Trivia

There’ this Random Trivia Generator that will help.
