Pictionary word generator

Tap Next word, show it to the person drawing, and start the timer. Words don't repeat until you've gone through the whole list.

How to play with it

Split into two teams. One person from a team looks at the word and draws it on paper or a whiteboard while their team guesses before the timer runs out. No letters, numbers or talking. Score a point for each word guessed, then pass to the other team.

Easy is for kids and warm-up rounds. Hard is ideas like jet lag or plot twist, which are fun with adults who know each other well. The full lists are in 130 Pictionary words.

Skip the paper and the scorekeeping

Doodler is the same idea on your TV: draw on your phone, everyone guesses on theirs, and the TV keeps score. It's free, with a kid mode.
