Blind Contour

A classic art-class exercise made into a game: memorize an outline, trace it blind while it's hidden, then reveal how close your line came.

How to play

Each round runs in three phases. Study the reference outline briefly, then it vanishes and you trace what you remember against a short timer, and finally your line is overlaid on the reference and scored.

• Memorize the shape's edges during the study window.
• Trace blind with the pointer before the gesture timer runs out — the reference is hidden.
• On reveal, your line is graded on accuracy and coverage and given a letter grade.
• Harder difficulty shortens both the peek and the drawing time.

Controls

• Desktop: draw with the mouse; click Easy/Normal/Hard, Daily/Practice, and New.
• Phone & tablet: trace with your finger — touch and stylus supported.

Game modes

• Daily and Practice seeds across Easy, Normal, and Hard.

Tips & strategy

• Fix the overall proportion and a couple of landmark points in memory rather than every wiggle.
• Draw in one continuous, confident pass; hesitating eats the short blind timer.
