Broken Picture Telephone

Do you remember playing telephone as a kid? I know I do! It was always funny to be the one who started the chain, because then you got to see how much it got changed in the retelling.

This is an online version of that game with a twist! The twist is that it alternates between words and pictures.

The first thing you need to do to play is sign up. Don’t worry it’s free. Click the free sign up link at the top of the page to do so. Next you need to check the e-mail address that you provided when you filled out the registration form for your verification key. Once you’ve done that you can log in and get started by clicking Play the Game.

Once there you’ll have the option of Starting a New Game, or Joining an Existing Game. You can even set up private games, and if you have one waiting it will let you know.

Start a Game – this option allows you to set up the game. Every game starts with text, so you’ll have to create a message; as well as, choose if the game is public or private, how many screens there are, and whether the game is mature.

Join an Existing Game – here you can join and existing game and either draw or write the next square of the game.

It is very important that if you do not wish to see mature content (there are a lot of people there with their minds in the gutter) that you go to account settings and uncheck view mature. This will make sure you only see clean games. You can also set it up so you only draw or only write for the games you join. If you do run across something mature that didn’t get filtered out be sure to check in the mature filter above the drawing area.

This game can be super fun – give it a try!
