Scribble & Guess
One of you gets a word and ninety seconds of blank paper; the other types guesses at whatever appears. No letters, no numbers, no pointing at it — just the drawing and the clock.
Scribble & Guess is one of 15 free games on crisskross arena, a browser site for two people who are not in the same room. It runs on any phone, tablet or laptop with nothing to download, and the room has a video and voice call built in, so you can see each other while you play.
