If you have got the game then you must be preparing to play it, so, let’s go through the process of how you play tapped four. Tapped four is easy and fun, the major goal is to get rid of the cards that are in your hand. Whoever has the greatest number of cards in a round, loses that round. Any person who has fewer cards in hand will move towards winning.
You start playing by placing the cards in the middle. In order to get rid of the cards in your hand, you have to try to play the highest cards. Once you play the highest card, the other player has to play a card which is equal in number to your card or a card smaller than what you have played. Otherwise, the player who failed to play a smaller card has to take the whole stack.
If you see that there is a total of four cards played of the same number then you can tap the cards with your hand and then move them towards the discard pile. After doing that, you get an extra turn. Extra turns are good because the more turns you get, the more likely it is that you will lose the cards in your hands.
There are special cards as well, the first special card is a tap in, with a tap in, you can play an extra turn and the other special card is tap out, with tap out other players have to lose their turn.
Tapped four is a creation of Marilyn and Dorene, both of them are game enthusiasts and their aim of creating this game was to make sure that the families are entertained at the family gatherings instead of being bored. They created this game to bring the excitement of people back.
