I've been spending far too much time playing this game recently and thought it was about time I destroyed some more people's productivity by handing out a link.
http://www.drawception.com
It's a bit like that "Draw Something" game that folks have been getting into on the Iphone lately, crossed with the Chinese whispers/telephone game that kids play. Basically, someone submits a line of text as a starting theme. It can be anything at all. Another player then receives this text and has to draw their interpretation within ten minutes. Then the next player is sent that image and has to write what they think they see and this goes back and forth until there are 16 submissions - 6 text, 6 pictures. These are then compiled and sent to each of the players. Sometimes it stays consistent from beginning to end. Usually the game will immediately go off on a new tangent, getting further and further away, not to mention more bizarre with each submission.

For example:
We begin with "Man from Michigan plays the banjo" and end with "Lemon head man checks prostrate of worried dog".

Being the internet and moderated only through up and down voting, there's a bit of crudity and memes, but never the less I find that plenty of games are worth a good laugh. It's also oddly addictive as my score rapidly moving towards 1000 will indicate.

Haha that looks well funny! Best picture has to be no.12, the person who got that picture must have been so confused!

arrangemonk

I've always heard this game referred to as Exquisite Corpse, after the writing exercise.

Used to do this at parties using folded pieces of paper. Good fun.

You are right. The Exquisite corpse drawing game was invented by the surrealists. I've seen ones at surrealist exhibits alongside works by Magritte and Dali etc.

I was wondering If there was a digital version....

Steve Schulze

This isn't exactly the same thing as the Exquisite Corpse game, though it has similarities. There's probably some pretty easy money to be made for someone who threw together a proper version that did the sectional drawings as an IOS app.

Joopson

Sounds like a blast, but I get some weird issues where the line skips, or doesn't draw consistently, and it's kind of ruining it for me.... I'll try to get it fixed, though, because this looks brilliant.

EDIT: This game is the best ever.
Started with "Man in top hat wears dress. Dances."

And ended with "Crying person observes wobbly child."

I can't stop laughing.

It took me 20 minutes to figure out how to register/sign in to this.

In case anyone else doesn't see anything at all next to where it says "Register/Login With", this may be because cdn.gigya.com is blocked by something (in my case, it was an entry I'd had in my "hosts" file.)

Here's me and my drawings so far.

You can skip games until a description game comes up if you want. Given how rarely I get them I suspect that's what most people do all the time.

You can see my wobbly drawings here if you feel so inclined.

Mine's #4, then yours is #6 I guess (You're Daniel2032?) and than Stinger's: #8.

ErichWK

Haha! dUb, my buddy Ryan was panel #5! He was super stoked on that game.

Stinger88

I started another I think Polycount will appreciate. Give it a go.

Ha, nice!

Even though I can't draw at all, I just couldn't pass that one up.

Stinger88

Damn. I see i'm going to have to bump this until its done.

Come on, have a go. These might be the only collaborations that get finished on PC!!! :P
