Draw Something Free (Kindle Tablet Edition)
Genre(s): Games
Rating: 4.0 – {1,816 Reviews}
Price may change without notice! Due to international copyrights, not all titles will be free outside the United States.
*************************
ou don’t have to be an artist to tap into your creative, doodle-loving side. Art is for everyone, so just Draw Something! The Draw Something app for your Android device and Kindle Fire is a social drawing and guessing game. Tap into your inner-Picasso, or tap into your inner-third grade art class. You only have to draw as well as your friend can guess.
This is the free, ad-supported version of Draw Something. Consider upgrading to the paid, ad-free version, also available on the Amazon Appstore.
Doodle with Friends
Draw Something is a turn-based drawing game you play with friends. Challenge friends on Facebook or Twitter, or let Draw Something automatically pair you with a new game buddy. Don’t be shy. We’re all artists in our own way here. The turn-based gameplay allows you and your partner to play at your own pace, and squeeze in as many turns as you prefer–and you’ll be trying to squeeze in a lot. In case you forgot, drawing is really fun.
Choose Your Muse
When it’s your turn to draw, choose one of the three word options to depict. Each word represents a different level of difficulty: Easy, Medium, and Hard. The objective is to earn gold coins. A hard word earns three gold coins, medium earns two, and easy earns one. If you’re not a fan of any of the words, use a bomb to blow them up for new word options. Don’t waste your bombs; you don’t get many.
Tools of the Trade
Draw Something offers more than 2,500 words to kick-off your creative journey (ad-free version). But there’s no need to stop there.
Color Packs
You don’t just have a lot of drawing to do, you get to color too. Add color packs to your masterpiece for that extra touch of perfection.
Brushes
Alter your brush size, erase mistakes, or delete and start over if you just aren’t getting it right. Once you’ve created the magnum opus that you envisioned, tap the Done button and wait for your friend to guess the word.
Seamless Syncing
If you already have the free version, switching to the paid version is easy! Your existing account, games, and friends will carry over automatically to this ad-free version.
Just in Case: If you are having trouble finding your Draw Something password, please check the welcome e-mail you received when you signed up.
PLEASE NOTE: This app lets you purchase digital content using actual money. On Kindle Fire, you can configure parental controls from the device Settings menu, and then selecting Parental Controls.
