Remember Pictionary? The game where someone picks a card and proceeds to draw an object listed on the card. Others in the room try to guess what it is the person is drawing. MOVL's WeDraw is an electronic take on that scenario. Designed for Google TV, You install the app on your smart device (Android, iOS, or your computer), and launch the app on your devices and your Google TV. Players enter a code delivered to you from your Google TV. This brings all players into the current game.
I quickly became annoyed with the Narrator's derogatory responses. Not because they were derogatory, but because, they were frequent. But with that said, I found this game to be very fun. WeDraw lets contestants win points and compete by guessing another player’s drawing. That person draws using their Smart Device, which appears on the Television screen, while the others enter their guesses from their smart device. The faster you guess the more points you get!
As of this writing, we are still waiting for Google TV's 2.0 software update. This is supposed to bring the Android Marketplace and hopefully, there will soon be a plethora of apps to choose from. Until then, there is certainly nothing wrong with WeDraw. Drawing something on either my iPad or my Atrix, showed up on my television screen immediately. One could argue if using the iPad's display wouldn't be an advantage over say using an iPod Touches display simply because of the real estate factor.
WeDraw is not an app that makes Google TV a must have device, but certainly an app that adds to the appeal of owning one! A video is below:
