Based on the board game, the object is guess a word or phrase based on a drawing. There are five categories - Person/Place/Animal, Object, Action, a category of difficult puzzles, and an All Play category. The amount of time to guess an answer can be altered.

These drawings are done using a cut-down variant of a paint package, which you can practice with to get your drawing skills up to scratch. You are not limited to freehand drawing - lines, boxes, circles and curves can be drawn, with variable ink colours and line thickness. After each question the game will tell you the answer and ask which player (if any) got the correct answer. Pictionary can be played against the computer, or with multiple players.

Description from the packaging:

The hilarious best-seller... now on your computer!
How do you play Pictionary on a computer? You play it just like the best-selling board game, Pictionary. It's like charades, only you sketch words instead of acting them out.
With a computer, though, you don't even need paper and pencil. Instead, you sketch pictures on your screen, using a built-in drawing program. It's a fun and easy way to learn to draw with your computer.

You're not an artist? Don't worry- most people aren't. That's a big part of the fun. Besides, there isn't time to get fancy: you're racing against the clock. So you need to draw on your wits as well as draw pictures.

Computer Pictionary also has some great features the board game doesn't. For example, you can let the computer do the drawing and compete to see who can guess the words first. Challenging the computer, you can even play alone!
