📖 About This Game

This is like regular Taboo except that all the "clue words" are names of famous celebrities past and present. Players divide into two teams. A card is secretly drawn and a "clue giver" tries to get his team to say the word on it . . . without using any of the related words that are also on the card. The team has a timer during which they score as many clues as possible.
