Doodle Quiz: the Cat Guesses

You have 20 seconds to draw the word you are given. Then Sakura the cat comes to guess it.

Doodle Quiz is a one-player drawing game that uses no connection at all. There is no opponent, no friend list, no leaderboard. The only other player is one small AI inside this device. So it works on a train, in a waiting room, or in aeroplane mode.

[Sakura thinks out loud while you draw]

• One word appears. You have 20 seconds
• With every stroke, Sakura mutters her thoughts: "a cat? ...no?"
• Three candidates are shown with how strongly she believes each one, so you can see exactly where she got confused. Right or wrong, that is the fun part
• When she does not know, she says so: "hmm, I have no idea..." She never pretends

[If she gets it wrong, it is not your fault]

• When she misses, she says "so it was a cat. Thank you for showing me"
• The settings say it too: "Sakura's guess is only a guess. If she misses, it does not mean your drawing is bad"
• There is scoring, but nothing that compares you with other people. All that remains is your own best

[Two ways to play]

• Alone - one word, 20 seconds. A single round when you feel like it is the nicest way to play
• Streak - ten in a row. Your score comes from how many she got and the time you had left. Only your personal best is kept

[20 words, all everyday things]

• Animals: cat, fish, butterfly, snake, snail
• Food: apple, banana, ice cream, pizza, carrot
