Taboo Instructions

Here are the instructions for the Hasbro board game Taboo:

• Number of players: 4 or more players 

Teams: Players are divided into two teams 

Goal: Players take turns giving clues to their team to guess a word or phrase without using any of the "taboo" words 

Gameplay:

1. The clue-giver chooses a card and gives clues to their team 

Teammates shout out possible words to guess the target word 

The clue-giver's team scores a point for each correct guess 

The clue-giver draws a new card and places it on the easel 

The opposing team uses the buzzer to signal if the clue-giver says a taboo word or breaks a rule 

The opposing team explains why the card was killed 

The game continues until all players have taken a turn as clue-giver 

The team with the most points wins 

Taboo words: Taboo words are listed on each card and cannot be said by the clue-giver 

Scoring: The number of correctly guessed words on the easel determines the clue-giver's team's score 

Game-changer die: The game-changer die can change up the game once the classic version is mastered 

Timer: The opposing team watches the timer and signals when time is up 

Unfinished cards: Any unfinished cards on the easel are placed out of play and do not count towards the score
