Our take on the Tapple Word Game

Tapple is a fast word game from USAopoly for 2 to 8 players, ages 8 and up. Players name a word in a category, then press the letter it starts with on the wheel and hit the ten-second timer for the next player. The letter stays down, so the pool of letters shrinks each round and the pressure builds. It is a light party game that suits families and mixed-age groups; its appeal is speed and simplicity rather than depth, and it plays in about 10 to 20 minutes.
