The lock

Stops accidental taps.

A screen going around a table gets bumped. The padlock stops that.

How it works

The padlock sits at the top of the screen. While it's shut, nothing else responds. Tap it to open it again.

Looks frozen?

It's probably locked. Tap the padlock.

Hand the box to

Then tap

Locked, waiting for the next player

Three settings

Change it with the Lock tile in settings. It comes set to Off. Turning it on or off asks you to confirm.

  • Off: no padlock, nothing locks.
  • Manual: you shut and open it yourself.
  • Auto: it locks every time someone taps Next and hands the box on.

It only locks while cards are being passed. The talk and play screens never lock.
