udraw Pictionary
Because there is now a drawing tablet, as the night follows the day,
there must be games to play on the tablet.
One of the first and obvious choices is Pictionary,
a guessing word game that was first published in 1985 (Wikipedia).
The board game format gets a lot of colorful improvements and sound effects that remind one of a game show excitement.
One person on a team draws an object, person, place or action and the other members of the team have to guess what it is.
A correct answer advances the team on the board by the number rolled on a die.
Different squares have different penalties - as you draw the ink runs out,
the screen rotates as you try to draw, you can only draw with straight lines and other amusing challenges.
The game requires at least two teams to play, but the more the merrier.
Drawing controls contain an adequate sub-set of the tablet's drawing
toolbox - drawing implements, fill, shapes, color picker, thickness.
More than you can use if you are playing within a time limit.
