Why Play Inkling?

Inkling is a free online social deduction drawing game that brings the excitement of party games to your browser. Whether you're looking for a fun activity for game night, a way to connect with friends remotely, or just want to test your artistic and deductive skills, Inkling delivers an engaging multiplayer experience that anyone can enjoy.

Unlike traditional drawing games, Inkling adds a thrilling twist: one player in each round is secretly the Faker. While everyone else knows the prompt and draws it, the Faker must bluff their way through without knowing what they're supposed to draw. This creates hilarious moments and tense voting rounds as players try to identify who's faking it.

No artistic talent required! The game is designed for players of all skill levels. Simple stick figures work just as well as detailed illustrations. What matters most is your ability to deceive others when you're the Faker, and your detective skills when you're trying to catch them. The game supports 3 to 10 players, making it perfect for small gatherings or larger parties.

Inkling works entirely in your web browser with no download or installation needed. Simply create a room, share the code with your friends, and start playing within seconds. The game features multiple rounds, real-time drawing, speed bonuses for quick submissions, and a scoring system that rewards both catching the Faker and successfully fooling other players.
