Doodle Duel is a free, real-time multiplayer drawing game where players sketch the same prompt simultaneously and an AI judge scores each doodle — no downloads, no sign-ups, and runs in any browser on any device.
What is Doodle Duel?
Doodle Duel is an AI-judged drawing battle for 2–30 players (3 on the free plan, up to 30 with Pro). It takes a prompt and a timed sketch as input; the AI (powered by Google Gemini or OpenAI) outputs a score and a witty critique based on accuracy, creativity, and style. The game is browser-only, requires no account, and is made by the Doodle Duel team. Play solo in Solo Arcade (50 levels, global leaderboard) or host a multiplayer room with a shareable code.
