Draw Something!

We knew for erstwhile at present that Nokia was getting the hit social game Draw Something developed by Omgpop (later acquired by now troubled Zynga). The Pictionary-esque game involves users trying to depict a word remotely on their phones, while another friend attempts to guess that discussion. The game is cross-platform and has rocketed to the top of mobile social-gaming.

Many users have begged and pleaded with Omgpop to bring it to Windows Phone and it looks like they have, albeit it express to just Nokia Lumia phones. (Cue the battle in comments over whether this helps or hinders Windows Phone).

The game weighs in at but a puny 7MB and is of class free for users. We should annotation it is not an Xbox title, significant there are no achievements but in plough, you get that precious iPhone/iPad/Android ability to play with others—score. The game also features notifications, of course, to let you know it is your turn.

The game requires an email or your Facebook to connect upwardly and play friends, so be prepared for that aspect.

If nosotros had to describe it, nosotros would advise that this was a direct port of the iOS game, so don't wait a Modern UI version of the blast game. Instead, you go what look to be awkward graphics on a Windows Telephone and some tiny fonts. And ads, of form. Merely hey, you wanted it, so some of you can now become it.
