1. Overview

TAZOS is a competitive tabletop skill-based game that utilizes branded collectible tokens known as “TAZOS.” Each TAZO is a circular plastic disc designed for flipping-based gameplay. Players compete by attempting to flip opposing TAZOS using controlled hand movements, earning points for successful flips.

The game emphasizes precision, control, and timing rather than chance.

  • Each successful flip = 5 points
  • First player to reach 100 points wins

4. Setup

Failed Attempt

  • If the TAZO does not flip completely → 0 points
