Doodl

Deadlock drawing game

Could you draw Lady Geist from memory? This is a free drawing game built on Valve's Deadlock, a sort of Deadlock Pictionary you play in the browser with friends. Each round one player gets a hero and the hero's portrait to work from, and everyone else races to guess who it is. All 44 released heroes are in, from Abrams to Yamato, plus a few things you fight over in every match, like the Walker, the Mid Boss and the Soul Urn.

Play Deadlock

How to play

  1. Make a room. Pick Deadlock and share the link. Anyone with it can join from a browser, with no account or download.
  2. Take turns drawing. The drawer gets a hero, sees that hero's portrait, and sketches it before time runs out. Horns, hats, goggles and glowing eyes are your best clues.
  3. Guess in the chat. Type the name to score. The faster you get it, the more points you score, and the drawer scores too. Common short forms count, so "Geist", "Talon", "Doorman" or "Krill" all work.

What you'll draw

Mostly heroes: every released hero, each with the portrait from their in-game hero card. Some are a gift to draw, like Abrams with his horns and glasses, Bebop's round robot head, Viscous the green goo, Rem's blue wizard hat, Sinclair's top hat or Violet's red beret. Others take more thought, like Mo & Krill, Paradox or the Rat King.

There are 9 map words too: both Patrons (the Archmother and the Hidden King), the Walker, the Guardian, a Trooper, the Mid Boss, the Rejuvenator, the Soul Urn and a Golden Statue.

The Deadlock skribbl word list

All 53 words, comma-separated, to paste into a private skribbl.io room's custom words box (tick "Use custom words exclusively" so only these come up):

Abrams, Apollo, Baba, Bebop, Billy, Calico, Celeste, Deadman Danny, Drifter, Dynamo, Graves, Grey Talon, Haze, Holliday, Infernus, Ivy, Kelvin, Lady Geist, Lash, McGinnis, Mina, Mirage, Mo & Krill, Nurse Harrow, Paige, Paradox, Pocket, Rat King, Rem, Seven, Shiv, Silver, Sinclair, Solomon, The Doorman, Venator, Victor, Vindicta, Violet, Viscous, Vyper, Warden, Wraith, Yamato, Archmother, Hidden King, Mid Boss, Walker, Guardian, Trooper, Soul Urn, Rejuvenator, Golden Statue

On skribbl.io you draw these from memory. On Doodl, the drawer sees each hero's portrait, and short forms like "Geist", "Harrow" or "Rejuv" count as correct guesses.
