Twenty prompts, five seconds each. Draw them as fast as you can — badly, inevitably. Then a quick round of colour-word chaos scrubs your memory clean. Now look at your own drawings and answer a simple question: what is that? You made these twenty seconds ago. You were so sure. HOW IT WORKS — Draw 20 prompts against a five-second timer — A Stroop colour test washes your memory away — Find your drawings from the prompts, or let friends quiz you by number — Your score is counted in "only X right" — Finish one round to unlock the Ultimate Challenge: three seconds per drawing, harder prompts MADE FOR SHARING Turn your most cursed drawing into a card or a short replay video — with or without the answer — and let friends guess. QUIET BY DESIGN No ads, no accounts, no data collected. Everything stays on your device. Best played on iPad, with friends watching. Second Guess is made by 2B Studio, an independent studio making small, handcrafted apps.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Second Guess at none against 暗棋2's 6. Second Guess also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 3 months). 暗棋2's advantage is iOS requirement (12.0 vs 17.0). On price, review sentiment and device support there is nothing between them.
