Something I remember me and my friends doing during science class was doodle wars. Someone would draw an environment and we'd take turns.
- A turn was two minutes or less, (unless a doodle was particularly detailed and cool enough to warrant an extension.)
- You could draw two characters, or a character and an attack move, or two attack moves.
- Characters had to be original creations, no boring stick-men, (although stick creations were still allowed.) Obviously it got quite bizarre with characters like "The Upside-Down Xmas Tree of Death" and "Sporkman" but it kept things interesting.
- Everything was one-hit kill even if it was a baby mouse vs. a T-Rex. However attacks had to be line of sight. Attacks were also encouraged to be fitting to the character attacking.
- You could attack the landscape to give line of sight.
It actually turned out to be a pretty fun game. Definitely filled up a class. Allegiences were unspoken and fickle, generally if one person was deemed to be amassing too much power they'd be ganged up on. Or we'd just gang up on someone if we were feeling vindictive. There was rarely a definitive winner but eventually we came up with a scoring system, (which I can't remember,) for the end of the class based on unit's created, units lost and units killed. The winner would get to draw the landscape for the next class.
