The licence plate game, with a score

Plates turns the classic road-trip game into a race for points. Spot a plate from another state, tap it, and it's yours. The further that plate has travelled to reach you, the more it's worth.

How it works

Spot a plate

All 50 states and DC are on the board. Tap the state the moment you see it, or tap the mic and just say it.

Score by distance

Points are based on the distance from where you are to the plate's home state. A neighbour is worth a point or two; Hawaii in the Midwest is worth a lot. Bonus plates pay 2×.

Play together

Seat up to four players, as a team or head to head. Group games into a trip, and look back at your route on the map when the ride is over.

On the road

The Plates board, a grid of state licence plates with found plates highlighted — The board: tap a plate to claim it.

A map showing markers where each plate was spotted, joined into a trail — Every find drops a marker on your trail.

Plates works offline on the road and syncs when you're back in range. Drivers: keep your eyes on the road. Plates is best played by passengers.
