Features

• Play with your friends in a private room or other users in a public game.
• Tweak the game according to your likings, and your own custom words.
• A refreshing new UI and dark mode support
• If you get disconnected from a game you will not lose your score just rejoin again and continue
• The best part is it's free and there are NO ADS!

I took inspiration from skribbl.io to make this project, however, I have added a bunch of new stuff in addition to what scribble offers like a new UI, dark mode, ability to preserve scores if disconnected and the best part there are no ads!
