Taboo, the laugh out loud, out-of-your-seat game of forbidden words. In the Taboo game, you need to get your team to guess the secret word, but the obvious clues are strictly off-limits. To get your team to say pinball, would you say arcade, game, flippers, tilt or roll? In this game you can’t because all of those words are strictly forbidden. Get your team to guess as many words as you can while you race against the clock. But watch out; if you say a forbidden word, the other team will “squeak” you and you lose the word.

Taboo can provide tons of fun and keep you sitting on the edge of our seat. You want your team to say the guess word on the card, but you can’t use any of the forbidden words in your clues. Get ready for hilarious moments as you race against the clock to give your team the best descriptions and clues possible. If you say a forbidden word, you’ll get interrupted with the squeaker and lose your turn.

Are you ready for some nail-biting excitement and quick thinking? Can you get your team to say the word “snore” without using the words sleep, night, noise, or nose in your description? This unpredictable party game will keep you on your toes as you think fast and build up the points for each card guessed correctly. The team with the most points wins.

Even if you have played the popular Taboo game before, this fun fast-paced game has been updated with 100-plus phrases not seen in previous versions. The content includes topics that are relevant to today’s pop culture and hottest trends.

Fine Game (If You Have Never Played the Older Versions) This would be a fine game if you have never played the older editions of Taboo because then you wouldn’t know what you’d be missing. 

Jenna Dubois "JVince" says:

Not what I thought The buzzer is a squeek toy more than a buzzer. So if you have dogs around, they will mistake the “buzzer” for their own squeeky toy. The cards have 4 words on them instead of two, which is fine, but if you want to play the way it originally is played, without the dice, good luck because there is no card holder. Inconveniently, the new cards don’t fit into the old game’s card holder, either. I was hoping it’d be the same as the old game, just with new words. Guess not.

Cheap. Cheap. Cheap. Hasbro really scaled down the quality and components in this newest version of the game.
