Maybe you've already succumbed ... maybe not but it won't be long.
Draw Somethinghas become in recent daysA real phenomenon
across the Atlantic and English speakers of other countries succumb as
dominos.Because as much to say right away: the only lack of
Draw Something is to be available for the moment in English, which
will not stop the clever little ones equipped with Google Translation.
But what is Draw Something? It is a Pictionary where we do
guess a word by a drawing, which is played online and against your equipped friends
of an iPhone, an iPod touch or an iPad, an email address or an account
Facebook. It may seem any says like that: yetthe
result is additive to possible. To admit everything, the author of these
lines has stopped playing any other game for a week and has been on
Daily the games at the slightest free time. A drug that we tell you
:
First of all, you have to create an account, via your Facebook account or your
email address. Rest assured, the application will only use one or the other than for

Line, Game Center and Open Feint not being (yet) taken into account. And finally
You have to be friends. The “free” version of the game being already rich in
possibilities, and therefore free, it is not very complicated to convince a
Pot of installing it. And then let's go!
We can then launch as many games with friends as we
wish.Each round takes place each time in three steps
:
1/ You see your friend discover (or not) the word you drew during
The previous part.
2/ You must in turn discover a word that he draws you.
3/ It's up to you to draw a word that he must discover.
The game's genius stroke is to have been able to play between the "delayed" and the "time
real ". No, you don't play live against your friend: you play each
on your side and Draw Something sends a notification to the other when you
have finished. It is therefore delayed. However, when a player begins his
part, he sees in real time how his friend found the word (his choices of
Letters are displayed live, his errors and hesitations are therefore blatant).
Because when you draw, Draw Something memorizes each of your features, your
gum strokes, your hesitations and your start -ups, in order,
cutting all the same during replay the moments when you have nothing
fact for long seconds or minutes, still ensuring a certain
Dynamism to this "delayed live".
The parties follow each other without anyone realizing it and the ultimate goal
Quickly became the chained successes (because counted). Draw Something also brings
a lot of small subtleties: a bomb allows for example to eliminate
Unnecessary letters when stuck in front of a drawing. But these are
Very rare (5 at the start) and pay very expensive. Because each tower allows us to

And will only bring back only gold. To guess “alone” is however more
complex and, if successful, will bring three pieces to each of the two
Players. A word to a room, a second to two rooms and a third to three
parts, we are offered each time. And it will take a few hundred
parts to buy five new bombs… The game also allows you to buy
Colors to vary the drawings. And in-app purchases for cash
are also possible, of course.
Moreover, many followers of the game have embarked on the creation of
increasingly complex drawings, those of Firefly and the planet of the apes
Below being particularly stunning:
In short, a real phenomenon is being born around this game, the
Many followers growing every day at an exponential speed. We hope
of course a French version soon, which should not
delay in arriving since the company behind the game, OMGPOP, has just been
Bought by the giant Zynga.
