CHRISTMAS PARTY GAMES ON ONE PHONE
The turkey's gone, the telly's boring and someone has suggested charades again. Yapper is a team word game for 4 or more players, played together on one phone. Describe the word, your team guesses it, and the first team to your target wins.
WHY IT WORKS AT CHRISTMAS
- One download is enough.
The phone moves between players, so nobody has to install anything else.
- Quick to explain.
Say the rules once and start. Latecomers can join a team.
- Everyone gets a turn.
Teams mean the quiet ones get to play too.
- Eleven languages.
Handy when the family spans a few.
FOUR WAYS TO PLAY THIS CHRISTMAS
- Family after dinner.
Mix the ages across teams, so everyone has someone on their side. Skip any word that a younger player doesn't know.
- Work Christmas do.
Keep it voluntary and low pressure. Two or three teams and a short target score is plenty.
- Big groups.
Make more teams, keep teams even, and have each team pick its first describer.
- Everyone shouting.
Turn on Chaos Mode, where the first team to shout the answer steals the point and the next turn.
