Gameplay
Dumb Ways to Draw is a remastered version of the popular train safety puzzle game, Dumb Ways to Die. The difference between this game and DWTD is that you have to draw yourself to safety, instead of swiping and tapping.
There are micro-games in each level, and you need to draw yourself lines to get yourself to safety. For example, for one level, there were spikes on the floor so I needed to draw a line over those spikes.
Graphics
The graphics are the same as the previous game, and I still think the same. They don’t have much to offer, however, the graphics fit in well with the gameplay as they don’t need to be amazing. It’s cartoon-based and each character has their own personality. I feel as if Dumb Ways to Draw is aimed at younger kids as the deaths are nowhere near as bad.
Music & Sounds
Entering the gameplay, there’s childish music which makes me think Dumb Ways to Die could be possibly aimed at younger kids. If you complete a level, there are cheers, confetti and a band playing while you collect your rewards. However, if you lose, your character will explode and the game will show you the death your character faces.
Controls
The controls are very simple, as this is a drawing game, all you need to do is drag your finger wherever you please to make a line. Dumb Ways to Die had more complex controls, although still simple.

The Verdict
Dumb Ways to Draw is an extremely fun game, although I definitely prefer the original. As you could see from the video, I definitely struggled with some of the levels so if you like a challenge you should definitely give it a download!
Of course, my favorite aspect of the Dumb Ways series is that it’s an educational game. No one would even think it – it’s fun, addictive and teaches us about train safety in the process!
I have to rate Dumb Ways to Draw 3/5 as it’s not as good, however, is still addictive and will most likely be staying on my phone for good!
