This game is hilarious. I love the reveal, how my poor, horribly drawn, mobile touch-based drawing compares to the actual person; the juxtaposition was really funny.

I kinda wish I could see other people’s drawings.

I wonder where the scores come from -- is it AI or a basic image match?

Also, somewhat prior art (literally):

The criteria for accuracy is a bit mysterious to me, I drew Cinnamoroll instead of this "Pillsbury Doughboy" that I never heard about but still got 88% score.

Ive always wondered if I sat down with a sketch artist and was asked to describe my wife, how close we would get.

I'm not very inclined towards drawing, I had more fun trying to guess the characters based on the descriptions than actually drawing them

Warning: autoplays audio. Loud.

Would be good to see witnesses description text after the case reveal. E.g. I kinda remember text says "black eyebrows" but the image clearly shows white eyebrows, would be cool to review.

The game draws me in without me even realizing it, and I get completely absorbed in it

All I see is dialogs getting in the way. The last one loops back to the first, I can't get out of that.

That was incredibly fun, although challenging on a smartphone. If you can guess the character it's a lot easier (100%, 99%, 96%, 85%), but even with ones I couldn't guess, it gave a reasonable score (Hollow Knight: 74%, Steve Harvey: 84%, Sirenhead: 69%) for following the directions.

I can't wait to see how actual artists do with this game.

I don't have audio on this PC so I cant hear anything but the drawing tool lags massively in FF on Linux. Like a few seconds if I move the cursor very fast.

210 partners want to track me as I use this, and I can’t decline in one click. Why is that necessary?
