Yapper / Game guides / Play Articulate online
CAN YOU PLAY ARTICULATE ONLINE?
Yes, with the publisher's virtual cards. Drumond Park, which makes Articulate!, has an online version of the cards at playarticulate.com. It gives you cards rather than a full digital game, so you'd still sort out teams, timing and scores yourselves. Want a game that does all of that for you? Yapper is a separate option.
WHAT DO YOU WANT TO DO?
PLAY WITH FRIENDS ON A CALL
Try our free browser game over video. Words only show on the describer's screen.
PLAY ON ONE PHONE, TOGETHER
Yapper handles the words, timer, teams and scores, for 4 or more players in the same room.
REPLACE A LOST SPINNER OR TIMER
Got the board but lost a piece? Our free spinner and timer work in your browser.

HOW TO PLAY ARTICULATE OVER VIDEO
Split into teams on your call and agree who describes first. The describer opens the online cards on a screen only they can see, and their team guesses out loud. Use a timer that everyone trusts, keep score in the chat, and swap describers each turn. For exact rules, follow the publisher's instructions.
CAN YOU PLAY ON YOUR PHONE?
Yes. Drumond Park says its online cards work on phones, and Yapper is built for one. With Yapper, you don't need a board or a separate timer. One phone runs the whole game, and it moves between players each turn.
ARTICULATE ONLINE QUESTIONS
Is Yapper the online version of Articulate?
No. Yapper is a separate game with its own words and scoring. It's made by Sumdora Ltd and isn't connected to Articulate! or Drumond Park.
Is there an Articulate app?
We couldn't find an official Articulate game app. Drumond Park's online cards run in a browser. Check its website for the latest.
Can I play Articulate without the board?
You can use the online cards and keep score on paper, though you'd lose the board's rules for moving around. Or try a game that doesn't need one.
Are the Articulate cards online free?
Check Drumond Park's site for its current terms. Our browser game and word tools are free.
