Common prompts include drawing a house, a person, or an animal. The resulting drawings are often humorous and provide entertainment for participants.
Such a pursuit fosters creativity and promotes lighthearted fun. It encourages individuals to think abstractly and to rely on their sense of spatial reasoning, even in the face of visual limitations.

It is especially useful as an icebreaker in group settings, fostering camaraderie through shared laughter and the recognition of collective artistic challenges.
