Drawing Sync Prompts — All 27 and How They're Scored

Drawing Sync draws five of these 27 prompts at random each game. Prompts appear as words only — no reference picture — so the question is whether the same word summons the same picture in both heads. Scoring rewards matching habits, not skill, and each prompt has its own thing the engine watches most.

circle Circle

Difficulty

Draw a full circle in one stroke

What the engine watches: A closed one-stroke outline. Compares closure (start-to-end distance), roundness, aspect ratio and clockwise vs. counter-clockwise.

star Star

Difficulty ★★

Draw a shining star

What the engine watches: Shapes with many sharp turns. Compares corner count, closure, rotation direction and aspect ratio. One-stroke stars and five-line stars part ways here.

heart Heart

Difficulty ★★

Draw a heart with feeling

What the engine watches: A symmetrical shape with a dip. Weighs mirror symmetry of the grid, closure and aspect ratio.

triangle Triangle

Difficulty

Draw a balanced triangle

What the engine watches: A closed three-corner figure. Compares corner count, aspect ratio and closure; outside 2–6 corners it barely counts as the prompt.

square Square

Difficulty

Draw a neat square

What the engine watches: A closed four-corner figure. Corner count, aspect ratio and closure; a crisp square and a rounded one read as different drawings.

moon Moon

Difficulty ★★

Draw the moon — full or crescent

What the engine watches: A closed one-stroke outline. Compares closure (start-to-end distance), roundness, aspect ratio and clockwise vs. counter-clockwise.

house House

Difficulty ★★★

Draw a house you'd like to live in

What the engine watches: A drawing built from several strokes. Compares stroke count, aspect ratio and symmetry; a single short line doesn't count. Whether you build a house from a triangle plus a square or draw it in one go decides everything.

camera.macro Flower

Difficulty ★★★

Draw a single flower

What the engine watches: A drawing built from several strokes. Compares stroke count, aspect ratio and symmetry; a single short line doesn't count. Whether you build a house from a triangle plus a square or draw it in one go decides everything.

Difficulty ★★

Draw a bright sun

What the engine watches: A drawing built from several strokes. Compares stroke count, aspect ratio and symmetry; a single short line doesn't count. Whether you build a house from a triangle plus a square or draw it in one go decides everything.

tree Tree

Difficulty ★★★

Draw one big tree

What the engine watches: Shapes with many sharp turns. Compares corner count, closure, rotation direction and aspect ratio. One-stroke stars and five-line stars part ways here.

How scoring works (all prompts)

  • Shape 45 — after normalizing size and position, line overlap, plus prompt-specific traits (roundness, corner count, left-right symmetry, rotation direction)
  • Placement 15 — where on the canvas and how big
  • Orientation 10 — the tilt of the whole drawing
  • Stroke 15 — stroke count, start point, initial direction, stroke order
  • Rhythm 15 — closeness of drawing time, progress curve, share of time spent paused

Which type are you two?
