 === Draw Mode ===
-The tool, similar to a robust version [[wikipedia:Paint (software)|Microsoft Paint]], through which players use to create new objects, weapons and even their hero. This is done through the stylus and touch screen input. Once drawn, objects and the hero itself will animate through the game's own design. The player can design up to three different humanoid heroes using a variety of colors, patterns and stamps. Character creation also features fifteen or so pre-made character templates which can be traced, or have their body parts swapped in and used for those people who are less artistic.

 An interesting side feature to Draw Mode is that the game's title screen can be drawn and saved, so players can make their own unique title screen.

-The DS version of ''Drawn to Life'' received mostly positive reviews from critics, with many complimenting the concept, visuals, and story, whilst criticism was skewed towards the latter's repetitiveness and gameplay described by some outlets as "uninspired". According to Metacritic, ''Drawn to Life'' received mostly "Mixed or Average" reviews, based on 34 total reviews, with no negative reviews. The game was well received by critics in Japan.

 Reception of the iOS release was far less frequent, however the consensus towards this port was much more negative, with the few outlets who published reviews referring to it as a poor transition. Most criticism geared towards the port's poor optimization, particularly the control scheme and music and sound effects being mismatched. Again according to Metacritic, this version also received "Mixed of Average" reviews, based on 4 total reviews, though unlike the DS version, there were no positive reviews.
