About the game

A crow sketches a picture in crayon. Name it before the drawing is finished.

Crayon Crow is a drawing-guessing game for one player. Each round the crow starts a new crayon sketch on the paper, stroke by stroke. Tap letters to spell what it is drawing — the sooner you name it, the more points you score. Guess as often as you like; wrong answers cost nothing. Miss a picture entirely and you lose one of your three crayons.

Sixty original drawings across five categories, all hand-authored as crayon strokes and drawn live on screen. A separate Sketch Pad lets you draw your own picture with ten crayons, three brush sizes and an eraser. Round Setup adjusts crayons, drawing pace, thinking time, spare letters and word set.

Fully offline: no internet connection, no accounts, no advertising, no in-app purchases.

How to play

  1. A secret word is picked. The crow draws it one stroke at a time.
  2. The less of the drawing you needed, the more points you score.
  3. If the sketch finishes and you have not solved it, you lose a crayon. Lose all three and the run ends.
  4. Sketch Pad gives you a secret word and the crayons. Draw it and let someone else guess.
