Crocodile Online - Draw and Guess

Mission briefing

"Crocodile Online - Draw and Guess" is a cozy online party game where one player draws a word, and the others try to guess it as quickly as possible. You can play with friends in a private room or jump straight into a quick game with other players. The built-in chat helps you discuss your guesses and have fun, and the leaderboard system keeps track of your progress and shows you the best guessers. The game works directly in your browser, without downloading, supports keyboard and mouse, and is perfect for short sessions after school or work.

Field manual

Log in to the game, enter your name, and choose between a quick game or a private room. In the quick game, you will automatically be placed in a suitable room. In the private room, create a room and send its ID to your friends. One player will be the artist, who will see the word and must draw it on the canvas using a pencil, marker, and eraser. The other players will enter their guesses in the chat. The first player to guess the word will earn a point and help advance in the leaderboard. Rounds are automatically switched, and the time is limited by a timer.

Launch orders: press Launch mission above and the game loads on this page itself — nothing downloads and no form stands between you and the first move. It is designed for a landscape (wide) screen and takes its orders from mouse, keyboard or touch, depending on the mission. It is built wide, for a landscape screen — rotate a phone sideways, or give it a tablet or monitor to stretch out on. If it offers a fullscreen control, use it — a fight this size deserves the whole screen.

Field notes for multiplayer operations

• The first match against strangers is tuition. You are not there to win it; you are there to learn the map, the pacing and what the regulars do that the tutorial never mentioned.
• Ping and position beat raw aim. A stable connection and a sensible place to stand will win you more rounds than any sensitivity setting ever published.
• Rematch the player who beat you cleanly. Queues are random, but lessons are not — the opponent who outplayed you is a free coach for exactly the skill you are missing.
