Tug of War

Tap like mad. Pull the rope. Bring friends.

Tug of War is a free tapping battle for phones. Two teams mash the button as fast as they physically can and drag the rope toward their side. Best of one, three or five pulls, twelve seconds each, scored per player so uneven teams stay fair.

How to play Tug of War

👆

Tap. Fast.

When the pull starts, mash the big TAP button as fast as you physically can. Every tap drags the rope toward your side.

⚖️

Fair for any team size

The rope moves on taps PER PLAYER, not total taps — 2 heroes can absolutely out-pull 6 slackers. No excuses.

🏆

Best of 1, 3 or 5

The host picks the match length, and before the first pull anyone can hop sides (or the host can shuffle them). Drag the flag all the way over for an instant win, or be ahead when the 12-second clock runs out. Take a majority of pulls to win the match.
