Description:
Time is against you. You know what you'd like to say if you could only find the words. But some things in life are strictly... TABOO.
Example: How do you get your team to say the word BIRTHDAY... if you can't say the words HAPPY, ANNIVERSARY, CANDLES, PRESENTS or CAKE?
You might say: "Friends and family sing to you once each year," or "You celebrate this event by blowing out a fire on top of a frosted dessert." Or you might hum the well-known tune until your team shouts, "Birthday!"
Each time your teams shouts out the secret word, you get a point. But be careful! Your opponents will be looking over your shoulder, making sure you don't say any of the TABOO words. Because if you do and they catch you, they sound the buzzer and score a point!
TABOO... it's unspeakable fun. Take our word for it!

 FUN, FUNNY, VERY CHALLENGING, GREAT !!!
My husband and I purchased this game as we often play games with our grand children, but we never got around to learning it or playing it until two of my college age grandsons came over last night and taught us. It was challenging, funny, nerve racking at times, trying to beat the clock, but most of all, the four of us had a wonderful time together and it really does help build a vocabulary of word espression. The only problem I am having is I can't find out how to order or get more cards to be more challenging instead of memorizing the ones that came with the game, going through them over and over. Hope you can direct me.

So Fun!
I play this with my siblings (in our teens-20s) and we have so much fun. It brightens everyone's mood. No one feels like they are losing. Everyone gets loud and excited. Brings out the clever side in you.

Excellent for all ages
I first played this with an adults-only Groundhog day party. We ended up playing til 6 am, no joke. It is fun.
They should make a more challenging version too! Or more taboo words...

Awesome!!!
I bought this game to play with my boyfriend's family one Christmas...It was so much fun...This game brought us all closer and made us laugh really hard...Everytime I go over to his family's house she always asks if I brought Taboo...

Taboo... the relationship barometer.
To play this game with a guy or girl you are just starting out dating... you will get the typical answers.. For Birthday you might use the above mentioned "blowing out a fire on top of a frosted desert" AT FIRST...
Once you two have been together for a while the answer will be more creative... "We went on a cruise to the Bahamas to celebrate this last year".
I love this game!!!!!
It also works pretty nice for weeding out that significant other that doesn't care enough to remember all the little details about you... because trust me... if they aren't paying attention when they are trying to court you.... they will turn into lump on a log once they get married to you!!!!!
Great game.

 Great Game...
All the previous reviews are right. The only down side is there isn't a newer version...after a few times of playing it gets easier to think of clues.
