'Scrawl' from Big Potato brands itself as an "Adult Doodling Game" that acknowledges the fact that no matter a player's artistic ability, a drawing often leads the minds of other players to wander to dark places. As Big Potato puts it: "your delightful drawing of 'Dreaming of Bacon' could be disfigured beyond belief."
The game involves a wide variety of scenario cards, which one player is meant to draw out, while the others are left to guess what the artist is trying to depict. As part of the game, points are awarded for funny doodles, as well as the best guesses.
Big Potato's product page encourages both new and experienced players to submit a scenario for a new Scrawl Card, which has the chance to be included in the game's next box.
