Drawful (stylized as drawful) is a party video game and one of five games featured in The Jackbox Party Pack. It is the first game in the Drawful series.

Gameplay

The game starts out by giving out a prompt that the players have to accurately draw to the best of their abilities in an allotted time, of which they won't have an eraser or undo button to redo their strokes.

Once all the drawings have been submitted, a random drawing is shown from someone and (similar to Fibbage) everyone else has to type out a lie that they think fits that drawing.

After all players submit their fake prompts, all the lies are shown on-screen, of which all the other players will then have to vote on which one is the original drawing. Players can also like a lie after they've chosen a prompt.

Once everyone has voted, the game will reveal the players who chose one of the fake prompts and show who submitted it; the liar get 500 points per player fooled by their lie. The people who chose the truth will get 1,000 points whilst the original artists gains 1,000 points per player who chose their truth.

(One thing to note: If a player doesn't submit their lie in time, their answer gets replaced with one of the game's decoy answers, which will subtract 500 points for every person who picked it.)

If there are 6 players or less in a game, another round will be played with the exact same rules, but with different prompts.

After all is said and done, all the scores are tallied up, and the player with the most points wins the game.

Trivia

• This is the only game in the Drawful series where the game's decoy lies deducts points from a player. The other games' decoys won't affect the original player's scores when picked.
• Just like Fibbage XL and Fibbage 2, you weren't able to "unlike" a post after you've already liked it.
• Before the Drawful Owl was introduced, the original host of this game was originally going to be an octopus-like animal, with game director Arnie Niekamp as the host. This, however, was rejected.
• Along with Drawful 2, this was one of the games in the series where likes don't give out extra points.
• This is the only Drawful game where the lies don't wrap around the drawing for the entirety of the round, as the lies get "stacked" together once all votes are in.
• The game uses the font American Typewriter, designed by Joel Kaden and Tony Stan for the International Typeface Corporation (ITC).
• This is the only game in the Jackbox Party Pack that doesn't have an older version of itself before the making of said pack.
  • Word Spud was originally released as a Flash game by Jellyvision back in 2006. The game is now defunct. ^{[citation needed]}
  • Lie Swatter was originally an iOS game made by Jackbox Games, released in March 28th, 2013. The game is no longer available on the App Store. ^{[citation needed]}
