About the game
What you do in a play session
Get ready for a test of speed and vocabulary with Tapple! This electronic game is pure adrenaline: each round, a topic appears, and a 10-second timer starts ticking. Your mission? Think fast and shout out a word that fits the theme, starting with a specific letter. Press the corresponding letter on the device, restart the timer, and pass the buck to the next competitor. Each player must come up with a different word, using a unique starting letter. If time runs out before you give your answer, you're out for the round! The last player standing wins the topic card. But beware: if all players manage to give valid answers and press all the letters before someone is eliminated, the round gets tougher! You reset the device, grab a new topic, and now need to give TWO answers with different starting letters. The player who collects the most topic cards at the end is the grand champion. Tapple is perfect for livening up any party, testing who has the quickest mind and the sharpest vocabulary. It's easy to learn but challenging to master, ensuring laughs and plenty of fun for groups of up to 10 people. Ideal for those who enjoy real-time games and word challenges!
