Description

The pressure is mounting in this fast-moving word game! This simple-to-learn, easy-to-pick-up-and-play game consists of a Tapple Wheel and 36 category cards (with 144 total categories in two difficulty levels). The Tapple Wheel has 20 different letter buttons around the outside and a timer button in the middle. A category card is flipped and players take turns shouting out an answer that fits the category, pressing the letter button that corresponds to their answer, and hitting the timer button to restart the 10 seconds for the next player. For example, the category may be "Something Flat" and the first player shouts out "pancakes" and pushes the "P' button, the next player may say "gum" and push the "G', and on play goes until a player cannot think of an item that fits the category with the remaining letters. Players are eliminated until only one player is left. Then a new category is started for the next round. Ten seconds isn't a lot of time and as popular letters are eliminated, time seems to go faster and faster! 2-8 players. ~ Megan
