One sketch can change the whole mechanism. In Doodle, Please!, your drawings become part of a physics puzzle. Draw a bridge, hang a weight from a rope or find a support for a lever. Help a little doodle hero reach the green flag. DRAW, WATCH, TRY AGAIN Lines become bridges and ropes. Closed shapes become stones. Combine your sketches with the level's mechanisms, watch what happens and refine your idea. PUT PHYSICS TO WORK Use weight, balance and motion. Send carts down slopes, load counterweights, compress springs and guide falling stones. One mechanism helps set the next in motion: finding the right order is part of the puzzle. SIX ISLANDS, 90 LEVELS Start with simple bridges in Doodle Academy. Journey through a river canyon, above the clouds, into crystal grottos, through a paper grove and out to the dunes. Familiar parts form more demanding combinations as you progress. A WORLD ON NOTEBOOK PAPER Pencil hatching, paper waves, mountains and trees give each island its own character. The handmade scenery leaves room for the most important part: your idea. PLAY THE FIRST SIX FOR FREE The first 6 levels are free. One full-game purchase provides access to the remaining 84 levels. Levels and islands open in order as you progress. PLAY IN YOUR LANGUAGE Choose English, Russian, German, French, Spanish, Italian or Simplified Chinese in Settings. Sketch an idea. See where it takes you.
