iSketch

Monday, 10th March 2008

This being the start of the school holidays, thought I'd blog about a game that my son's English teacher introduced to her class, and have now gotten the boys hooked. He came back home and told us about it, and now we are equally hooked :-)

It is called iSketch, and can be played by anyone around the globe with an internet connection.

Here are the instructions on how to play the game:

Welcome to iSketch!

Join other people from around the world to play a fun game of online sketching!

The object of the game is simple. Each player gets a chance to draw a word which the other players will try to guess. You can play anytime for free, 24 hours a day!

Quickstart
Enter a game by clicking one of several themed rooms you'll see listed on the right side after logging on. As artist, drawing tools and a button to deliver hints will help you with your draw, while the rest of the players try to guess the word. At the end of a 10-round game, the highest-scoring player is declared winner and a new game starts.

Some of the most important rules are: Don't use LETTERS in your draw, use the hint button to give the number of letters and display common courtesy to your fellow players. Take time to read the rules, as joining a game constitutes willingness to follow them. Rules will be enforced by players and administrators alike.


So watcha waiting for? Come and join in the fun for all ages!
