Terms
Terms of use
The rules for playing and for sending in sketches.
Last updated: 14 November 2026. These terms cover the Sketch Fury website (sketchfury.com), the game, and the Sketch Fury app.
The short version
- Sketch Fury is free to play. Be kind and keep it family friendly.
- Only send drawings that are yours, or that you have permission to share.
- Your drawing stays yours. You let us show it and the fighter made from it.
- We decide which sketches become fighters, and we can take things down.
Using Sketch Fury
You may play the game and use the website and the app for your own enjoyment. Please do not try to break them, overload them, cheat the leaderboards, or get around the limits on sending sketches. If you are under 13, ask a parent or guardian before sending a sketch.
Sending a sketch
When you send a sketch you confirm that:
- it is your own drawing, or you have permission from the person who drew it (and, for a child, from their parent or guardian) to share it;
- it is a drawing, not a photo of a real person;
- it does not copy characters from films, shows, games or comics;
- it is family friendly, and so are the name and the words you send with it.
Every sketch is reviewed before it is shown. We may turn a sketch down, and we cannot make every sketch into a fighter. Fighters are built one at a time, so it can take a while.
Who owns what
Your drawing stays yours. By sending it you give us permission, free of charge and for as long as the fighter is in the game, to show the drawing, to create a game character and artwork based on it, and to show them in the game, in the app, on the website and when we tell people about Sketch Fury (for example in screenshots and trailers). You can ask us to take your sketch and its fighter down at any time, and we will remove them from the game, the app and the website.
The game itself, its name, its code and the artwork we create belong to us.
Player names and leaderboards
Online names must be family friendly and should not be your real name. We may remove a name. Leaderboards are for fun: results are reported by the devices of the players and carry no prizes.
Reporting
If a fighter or a name should not be here, use "Report this fighter" in the app or write to [email protected]. A person will look at every report.
No promises
Sketch Fury is provided as it is. We work hard to keep it running and safe, but we cannot promise it will always be available or free of mistakes, and to the extent the law allows we are not liable for losses that come from using it. Nothing in these terms takes away rights that the law gives you and that cannot be given up.
Changes
We may update these terms. The new version will be published on this page with a new date.
