Win, Lose or Draw was a popular TV show requiring artistic skills and an ability to think laterally. A player on your team draws something on the big game board, and you must work out what it represents. They will be common expressions depicted literally, such as 'bright idea' showing a light bulb over somebody's head, and 'cabin fever' as a rickety building next to a man with a thermometer in his mouth.
In this computerised implementation the drawing phase of the game is handled by the computer, so your task is simply to guess the meaning of the picture by thinking laterally. Your team has 60 seconds, and you can guess repeatedly, but the picture takes time to take shape. If you fail to guess correctly, the opposition has 15 seconds to guess it (with a single try) to steal the money.
A real "blast from the past," this is a faithful adaptation of the popular TV show. A good example of how it is possible to fit tons of gameplay value into less than 200KB of data, with advanced 4-color CGA palette. Despite its age, the game showcases hundreds of questions and decent keyboard-based drawing interface. For those who are unfamiliar with the gameshow, the object is to draw objects that best express the phrase or concept that the TV host shows you, in order to help your teammate guess the correct answer. The computer's drawings are passable and sometimes amusing to watch, and the game is a lot of fun in hot-seat multiplayer mode.
