Description

Soap Time describes itself as "the soapy situation board game for adult couples." It may be played by 2, 4 or 6 players.

The object of the game is to amass 2500 points by hoping for the best result in various "soapy situations", or by arguing one's point sufficiently well to gain additional points (or keep from losing points) awarded by a "soapy situation" card.

Each player has a partner who may bask in the reflected glory of a particular "soapy" outcome, gain at the expense of a partner's humiliation, suffer losses due to a partner's triumph, or experience no effect at all. However, victory in this game is an individual rather than a team accomplishment.

Players who fall sufficiently into the hole point wise may elect to have their token commit suicide and start over.

The game cards reflect the rationale for the game's name, with the "soapy situations" being of the type most likely to be found in a soap opera, if anywhere. However, there is no explicit tie-in to any particular show.
