Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

It’s the game of unspeakable fun! In the Taboo game, get your team to say the Guess word without saying any of the Taboo words! Who can get teammates to say "Fame" without being able to say Celebrity, Superstar, Musical, Known, or Fortune?

This classic Taboo board game features 212 cards with 848 relatable guess words from pop culture, trends, and more. Players try to give creative and carefully worded clues to help team members guess words fast as they race against the timer. Just don't mention unmentionables, or it's time for the squeaker and you lose that point.

The Taboo card game for adults and teens ages 13 and up is an exciting pick for family game nights. It also makes a great group game for game nights with friends. You can even just take the card box and use the online tools to play the Taboo word game almost anywhere!
