Keep game night moving. Meeple Clock is a beautiful chess-style clock built for board games — every player gets their own colorful meeple wedge, and passing the turn is one tap. No more "whose turn is it?" and no more games that drag past midnight. Set an optional turn limit, hand the phone to the table, and play. HOW IT WORKS Set up your players, pick who goes first (or let the app choose at random), and place the phone in the middle of the table. The screen becomes a radial clock where each player owns a wedge. When your turn ends, tap your wedge — the clock instantly switches to the next player. FEATURES • Radial "table clock" layout — up to 10 players, each with their own meeple color • One-tap turn passing, designed to be used from any seat • Optional per-turn limit with a clear overtime alert, sound, and haptics • Pause anytime, and undo a turn if someone taps by mistake • Automatic round counting and a running total game clock • Results screen showing each player's total thinking time — and the fastest player crowned • Game history and stats saved on your device, with one-tap sharing • Keeps your screen awake during games, so the clock never disappears mid-turn • A clean dark design that looks great in the middle of any table GREAT FOR Strategy games, family game night, party games, tournaments — any tabletop game where turns matter. If your group has one player who takes forever (you know who), Meeple Clock is the friendly fix. No account, no ads, no subscription. Just press start and play.
