That player continues playing until the game calls out "Pass it!" again. Play goes on with each player handing off the game unit.

Solo Play:
In the Solo games, you earn 1 point for every command you complete. Your score is called out at the end of your game. BOP IT also calls out the high score when you select the Solo or Beat Bop game. (Scores are lost when you remove the batteries.)
Top your personal high score. If you reach 100, you've beaten the BOP IT game!
