PREMIERE
The board that folds
The hinge is the board and closing the phone passes the turn. Backgammon, chess, brisca, go and more, for two people.
Tapete: 2 Player Board Games
Pass and play on one phone
Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
New: shogi, Japanese chess. Pieces you capture go to your hand and come back into play. Fifteen board games for two on one phone, with no accounts and no ads.
Tapete is a case of board games for two people sharing one phone. No playing against the computer: here you always play with someone sitting across from you.
On a folding phone, the fold is part of the game:
• The hinge is the backgammon bar, the four-in-a-row frame and the chess net.
• In sea battle, you place your fleet, close the phone and pass it over. When it opens, the other player sees only their side.
• In brisca, stand the case up like a book and each of you sees only your own hand.
Compatible with iPhone Duo. On any other iPhone or iPad it plays the same: a curtain asks you to pass the phone whenever there is something the other player must not see.
FIFTEEN GAMES
• Sea battle, four in a row and air hockey, included.
• Backgammon, chess with clock, checkers, brisca, xiangqi, shogi, go, dominoes, tute, liar's dice, secret code and cribbage in the full case: one purchase, forever, shared with your family.
• Xiangqi with the river on the hinge and 9×9 or 13×13 go: the real classics, not mini-games.
• Shogi, Japanese chess, with traditional kanji pieces: what you capture goes to your hand and can be dropped back in, and on a folding phone each player gets a board on their own half, seen from their side.
• Liar's dice with each player's dice on their own half, secret code with close-and-pass, and cribbage with the peg board along the hinge.
MADE WITH CARE
• The real rules: Spanish checkers with flying kings and mandatory capture; chess with castling, en passant and every kind of draw; backgammon with single, gammon and backgammon wins.
• Felt, walnut and brass: a travel case, not a mini-game menu.
• Games save themselves: folding, a call or closing the app never loses one.
• No accounts, no ads, no analytics. No data collected.
