Tapple

Description

Each round in Tapple, one player draws a topic card, then starts the timer. In the next ten seconds, that player must give a single word answer that fits within the topic, press down the letter key in a special electronic device that corresponds to the first letter of that word, and restart the timer. The next player must then think of a word for the topic that starts with a different letter, press down that starting letter, and restart the timer.

If a player runs out of time, they’re out for the round. If only one player remains in a round, they collect the topic card. If players manage to press down all of the letters before knocking all but one player out of a round, the players reset the device, draw a new topic card, then start the timer again, this time needing to give two answers for the topic – each starting with a different letter — within the allotted time. Whoever collects the most topic cards wins!

Tapple: After Dark is an adults only version of the party game Tapple, in which players are given a topic and challenged to name a word that fits that topic. You have only ten seconds to give an answer, and once you do, the starting letter of that answer is now out of play for everyone until the end of the round.
