One part art, one part communication. For two or more players.
Object: To describe a drawing composed of basic figures accurately enough that your partner can draw it.
You Need: Paper and pencil for each player. A small sketch pad works better than 8.5 x 11, but any paper will do.
There are two roles in Jam Doodle: creator/describer and drawer. During the game, you will take turns swapping roles. When you're the describer, choose a doodle and begin describing it to your partner. When you're the drawer, try to draw your partner's doodle as accurately as possible from the description.
When both of you agree that you're done, turn around and compare the doodle to the copy that was just drawn.
* If the copy is an accurate duplication of the original, then you've accomplished your goal. It's okay if the copy is drawn to a different scale, as long as the ratios between the objects are accurate.
* If the copy differs from the original, then take some time to discuss where it differs, why it differs, and what information could have made it come out differently.
Once you're done, swap roles and start again.
Several variants to the basic rules are available on the website as well.
