Draw Something app tops charts for sixth week

 
26 April 2012

A game similar to Pictionary continued to draw the crowds this week after topping the app charts for the sixth week running.

Draw Something by OMGPOP involves players sketching something which their opponents then have to guess.

The game, which can be played against random challengers or with friends, topped the paid-for iPad and iPhone app charts, according to Apple's App Store Official UK Charts.

The free version of the game was second in the free app charts for both devices.

It was beaten to the top by Logos Quiz Game, which asks users to guess brand names from hundreds of company logos. The app did not feature in the top 10 last week.

A game which invites players to pummel a chained up stuffed doll with a variety of different weapons, including a machine gun and boxing gloves, was a new entry into the top 10 free apps for the iPhone. Sack Dude, by Firezoo Ltd, came in at number three on the free iPhone chart.

Meanwhile, ArtSet, an app for budding artists, entered the paid-for iPad apps chart at number two.
