TurnBuzz - Board Game Timer

The simplest possible timer for games that go around the table — Go, chess, Rummikub, card games — where one player thinking too long slows everyone down.

■ Ready the moment you open it

No sign-in, no tutorial, no cluttered menus. Just a large timer and the time. Tap the screen and the countdown starts; when it hits zero a buzzer sounds. The next player taps again and the same length starts over.

■ It tells you with sound

· A short tick every second for the last 10 seconds

· A clear buzzer at zero

· Mute the tick and the end sound separately, both right on the main screen — no need to open settings

· Every skin comes paired with its own tick and end sound

■ Choose the length and the format

· Presets: 10s / 30s / 1 min / 3 min / 5 min / 10 min, plus your own custom value

· Display: Min:Sec, Hour:Min:Sec, or down to milliseconds

■ 40 skins

The same timer in 40 different looks. The 20 standard skins are ready from the start: a fresh glowing ring, an LED segment ring, a visual timer whose disc shrinks as time runs out, flip clocks, neon, analog clock wedges, pie charts, a stopwatch, a kitchen timer and more. Another 20 premium skins — needle dials, metal gauges, halftone blocks and more — unlock together with one purchase.

■ Made for

· Go and chess players who want a per-move time limit

· Board game nights that need to keep moving

· Talks, debates and party games that split time fairly
