Quick! Think of a word that contains both letters on the table! An animal that has an L and a D? Leopard! A place containing and R and B? Barnyard! How about a verb with a P and an E?....Explode! Duple is a quick-thinking game of symbol matching and word-finding. Players flip letter cards in turn until the symbols on two players' cards match. Matching players face-off by being the first to shout a word which contains the letters on both cards. Sound easy? Think again! Correct answers must be at least 5 letters long and conform to ever-changing categories. Wild Cards and Cascades create unexpected face-offs and the All Play card gets everyone facing off a once!
