A fast map-memory challenge
Why Country Draw makes every outline useful
Instant shape-based scoring
Get an instant 0–100 result. Position and size are normalized, so you can draw the country anywhere. The overlay helps you draw country outlines with better proportions next time.
Random map-credit rewards
A qualifying sketch can unlock 1–100 km² once per UTC day. Small rewards are common and the 100 km² result is deliberately rare, while every credited area supports a future Minecraft map.
Share the finished comparison
The result becomes an image with the country, score, and original line. Share it to challenge friends and receive a random 1–5 km² bonus on an eligible rewarded round.
How the free game works
How to play Country Draw in four steps
Get a random country
Start Country Draw and receive one of 39 country names. The true outline stays hidden, leaving you to draw the country using memory rather than tracing or copying a reference.
Draw country outlines
Use a mouse, trackpad, pen, or touchscreen to draw country borders before the timer ends. Undo one stroke, clear the canvas, or finish early whenever the silhouette feels complete.
Reveal the real border
The scorer centers and scales both shapes, calculates an instant result, and overlays the reference. The comparison makes it easy to see where you draw the country too wide, narrow, tall, or short.
Claim and share
Score at least 65 to qualify for the daily Country Draw reward. Sign in only when claiming credits, then share the country result for a separate random 1–5 km² bonus.
Made for curious mapmakers
Use Country Draw to learn, compete, or build
Geography learners
The game builds visual recall without requiring a quiz or textbook. Draw country outlines repeatedly to discover which coastlines, islands, turns, and proportions you remember, then use the border overlay as immediate feedback.
Friends and classrooms
Turn Country Draw into a quick group challenge: use the same timer, draw the country independently, and compare scores. Shared result cards make surprising attempts easy to discuss without exposing the hidden outline first.
Minecraft map builders
This geography game connects practice with practical map credits. Learn to draw country silhouettes, earn eligible area, then select a real location and generate a separate Minecraft world for Java or Bedrock.
Scoring, borders, and rewards
How Country Draw scores a country outline
The game measures shape similarity rather than artistic polish or trivia knowledge. When you draw the country, your strokes and the stored border are independently centered and scaled before the comparison begins, so canvas position does not decide the result.
Your drawing
Every completed stroke contributes to one combined outline. The system samples up to 600 points, preventing a slow, highly detailed line from automatically beating a quick and confident attempt.
Real border overlay
The selected country comes from the authorized outline set bundled with the game. Its real border remains hidden while you draw country shapes and appears only after scoring.
Recognizable at 65
A Country Draw score of 65 or more qualifies as recognizable. Reward claims are recalculated by the server from submitted strokes rather than trusting a score reported by the browser.
Reward range
The first qualifying Country Draw round each UTC day awards 1–100 km². A 1 km² reward has the highest probability, every whole-number value can occur, and 100 km² is the rare jackpot.
Fair, private, and intentionally simple
What Country Draw measures — and what it does not
The game processes sketches as coordinate points, not as handwriting, identity, or biometric data. Practice needs no account. A signed-in reward claim sends the country code, signed round token, and stroke coordinates so Arnis can reproduce the score, confirm that you did draw country geometry, and prevent duplicate credit grants.
Country Draw ignores where you placed the sketch and how large it is, but it does not rotate, mirror, or elastically reshape the result. You may draw the country with several strokes when islands are included. Tiny islands and internal state or province borders are not required unless they belong to the stored outer silhouette.
Frequently asked questions
Country Draw FAQ
What is Country Draw?
Country Draw is a free browser game where you draw country outlines from memory in 30 seconds. It returns an instant 0–100 score and places the real border over your sketch. You can practice without signing up, installing an app, or downloading a file.
How does Country Draw calculate my score?
The scorer centers and scales the sketch and reference independently, then calculates two-way nearest-point distances. Average and RMS error become a 0–100 score. You can draw the country anywhere, but incorrect proportions, missing regions, and extra loops still affect the result.
What Country Draw score counts as correct?
A Country Draw score of 65 or higher counts as a recognizable outline and can unlock a reward. The threshold leaves room for a fast hand-drawn line while still requiring the major coast, border turns, and proportions to resemble the selected shape.
How does the 1–100 km² reward work?
Signed-in players may claim one qualifying Country Draw reward per UTC day. A 1 km² outcome is most likely, midrange outcomes are less common, and 100 km² has the lowest probability. The awarded area joins the Arnis credit balance used for eligible Minecraft map generation.
Must I sign up to draw country outlines?
No. Country Draw lets anyone start rounds, draw the country, view the overlay, and receive scores without an account. Authentication is required only when a qualified player wants map credits or a random 1–5 km² sharing bonus written to an Arnis balance.
Can I play Country Draw more than once?
Yes. Country Draw practice rounds are unlimited in the browser. The daily restriction applies only to the first qualifying credit reward, not to play or scoring. Continue to draw country shapes, chase a better result, or create another comparison card after claiming.
Which outlines can I draw in Country Draw?
Country Draw currently includes 39 countries across Europe, Asia, Africa, Oceania, and the Americas. You can draw country shapes such as Italy, Japan, Brazil, Australia, Indonesia, Norway, Chile, the Philippines, and Madagascar. Consecutive rounds avoid repeating the same country.
Do islands affect a Country Draw score?
Only contours stored for the selected Country Draw reference affect scoring. Internal state or regional borders are never required. Some recognizable offshore islands are included while tiny ones may be omitted. When several contours appear, draw the country using separate strokes anywhere on the canvas.
Can I share a Country Draw result?
Yes. The game creates a share card with the country name, score, and your original line. Supported devices open the native share sheet; other browsers copy the challenge link. Friends can draw country outlines from the same prompt, while an eligible rewarded share grants a random bonus between 1 and 5 km².
Does darw a country mean Country Draw?
Yes. If you typed that common misspelling while looking for a game to draw the country from memory, you are in the right place. Country Draw runs directly in a modern phone, tablet, or desktop browser and requires no separate game download.
