Draw Save Puzzle: one sketch between the stickman and the lava

Draw Save Puzzle is a 2D drawing puzzle in which you sketch lines or shapes to keep a stickman alive. Each level freezes him in mid-air above a hazard — a lava pool on level 1, a pit lined with red spikes on level 2 — and asks the same question: "How to save him?" You draw with the mouse or a touchpad, the stickman drops onto whatever you made, and a countdown starts at the side of the screen. If he is still safe when it runs out, the level is won and pays out gems. The game runs on Unity WebGL in a landscape frame and arrived on GamePix in January 2023; we could not find a named developer in the game or its listings.

How to play Draw Save Puzzle

Every level is one hazard and one stickman. Your drawing is the only thing that decides between a win and a restart.

1
Read the scene
Before drawing, note where the stickman hangs and what is under him. On the first levels a red dotted line or a grey curve shows where a drawing can go.
2
Draw your shape
Hold the left mouse button and drag to sketch a line, platform or curve. On level 1 a flat line across the gap between the two stone blocks was enough.
3
Let physics play out
When you finish drawing, the stickman falls and a countdown appears on the right. He has to stay clear of the hazard until it ends.
4
Collect gems and move on
The VICTORY card shows your gem reward and a sliding x1 to x3 bar, then NEXT loads the following level.

What Draw Save Puzzle does differently

The stickman waits for you

He hangs frozen above the hazard until you finish drawing, so there is no time pressure while you plan the shape.

A countdown decides the win

Landing is not the end. A countdown (3 on the first level) runs after he drops, and he must stay safe until it reaches zero.

Hints drawn into early levels

Level 1 shows a red dotted line and level 2 a grey arc, each marking a shape that works before you commit your own.

Gems and a multiplier bar

Wins pay gems. The victory card shows a bar from x1 through x3 with a moving marker, and Tips cost 100 gems each.

Tips for Draw Save Puzzle

Follow the hint on the first levels. The dotted line on level 1 and the arc on level 2 both show a working answer.
Bridge from solid ground to solid ground. On level 1 the line that reached across both stone blocks held the stickman above the lava.
A bounce can still count. On level 2 the stickman bounced off the arc and landed outside the spike pit, and the level was still won.
Restart instead of skipping. The blue arrow redraws the level for free, while the Skip button is marked with an AD tag.
Save gems for hard levels. A Tip costs 100 gems and the counter read 20 at the start of level 2, so hints are worth keeping for later stages.

Who is Draw Save Puzzle for?

Players who like physics sketch puzzles

Fans of draw-a-line games where the answer is a shape rather than a button press.

Younger players

Clear hazards, one character to protect and on-screen hints on the opening levels make the goal readable at a glance.

Short-session players

A level is one drawing and a few seconds of countdown, so it fits into a short break.

Gems, Tips and the victory bar

Draw Save Puzzle keeps no points total. Clearing a level shows a VICTORY card with the message "You are the great savior of stickman !!!", a gem reward and a colored bar marked x1, x1.5, x2, x3, x2, x1.5 and x1 with a marker sliding along it. The gem counter sits in the top-right corner; in our test it read 20 at the start of level 2, and level 2's card showed +10. Gems pay for Tips at 100 each, and the blue restart arrow lets you redraw any level from scratch.
