Te reo Māori

Ko Kaupapa te papa kēmu mā Aotearoa e reorua ana

E 900 ōna kupa, mai i te rākau ki te rangatira, ā, mā KAUPAPA e tino ngahau ai te noho, e whakawhanui ai hoki tō punakupe Māori i te wā kotahi!

Me pēhea te tākaro? I tētahi meneti kotahi, whakamāramamhia ngā kupu katoa ka taea ki ō hoamahi. Ka tere ake te koke a tō rōpū i te papa kia nui ake ngā kupu e whakamāramahia ana. Kawea ake ngā mānuka a Māui i a koe e haere ana! Ko te rōpū ka tae tuatahi ki te papariki o TOA te toa o te kēmu.

Kei roto: 1 te Papa Kēmu, 150 ngā kāri Kupu, 12 ngā kāri Māui, 3 ngā kāri Tūtohu, 3 ngā waka Rōpu, 1 te Tohuwā, 1 te pukatohu Kēmu, 1 te kapa

From reo zero to kōrero hero!
KAUPAPA is the board game for a bilingual Aotearoa.

With 900 words spanning rākau to rangatira, KAUPAPA is your chance to have hysterical fun, use your reo and expand your Māori vocabulary at once! It is a word description game that can be played at any level - beginners can use it to learn new words, and fluent speakers can create a fast-paced, playful Māori language immersion environment.

How to play? In one minute, describe as many words as possible to your teammates. The more words you describe, the faster your team advances across the board. Rise to Māui’s challenges along the way! The first team to reach the TOA (champion) tile wins the game.

Includes: 1 Game board • 150 Word cards • 12 Māui cards • 3 Reference cards • 3 Team tokens • 1 Timer • 1 Game guide • 1 coin the faster your team advances across the board. Rise to Māui’s challenges along the way!
