About

RotoTap

This game challenges your perception by requiring you to tap the color of the word, not the word itself. Score points and bonuses for quick, correct taps, but be mindful of time penalties for errors. It's a simple concept that quickly becomes surprisingly difficult.

Highlights
  • Tap the color of the word
  • Avoid being fooled by the word itself
  • Score points and bonuses
  • Earn bonus time for correct taps
  • Time penalties for incorrect taps

The rules are simple: Look at the color of the word in the center of the circle and tap that color. Don't be fooled by the word itself. It's the color of the word that matters. Sounds simple? You'll be surprised at how challenging it is. You score 10 points plus a bonus for each correct tap, but you have to be quick. The bonus drops quickly to 0 if you wait too long. You also get additional time added for every correct tap. If you tap the wrong color a time penalty is taken.

Yamb is a classic turn-based strategy game played with five dice, available for iPhone, iPad, and Mac. Each turn, you roll the dice up to three times, carefully choosing which dice to keep and which to re-roll, then assign the result to a combination on the score table. On your first roll, all five dice are thrown. From there, you decide which to hold and which to roll again. After your third roll — or whenever you feel ready — you must select a combination and record your score. Once the score table is fully filled, the player with the highest total wins. Choose from three game modes featuring 4, 6, or 8 columns for varying levels of challenge. Bonuses are automatically calculated throughout the game, keeping every session fresh and competitive. Features • Three game modes — play with 4, 6, or 8 columns • Auto and manual dice roll options • Multiplayer co-op with up to 8 players • Leaderboards via Game Center • Full game history • Custom player profiles • Challenge friends • Haptic feedback
