- The artist earns points for omitted features only if the other players still guess the prompt correctly.
Field notes
The rules describe live drawing, with guesses open while the artist works; the first correct guess ends the round, so unfinished features can still count as omissions. The page lists 88 built-in prompts, supports player-made prompts, and calls 4 to 6 players the sweet spot. Its October section presents a daily Halloween prompt and links to all 31.
