In the party game Taboo, your goal is to give clues to your teammates to help them guess a specific word, but you must avoid saying any of the forbidden words or phrases listed on the card.

Here's how it works: As the active player, you hold the deck so that both your team and the opposing team can see the top card. The card shows the target word your teammates need to guess and lists five taboo words or phrases you cannot use in your clues.

For example, if the word is "bacon," you must get your teammates to say it without mentioning "pig," "eggs," "breakfast," "sausage," or "eat." Successfully getting your team to guess the word scores the card for your team. Then you move on to the next card, trying to guess as many as possible before time runs out. If you accidentally say a taboo word or make gestures, the opposing team buzzes in and gets the card.

Taboo Uncensored follows the same gameplay but features more risqué words and phrases, adding an extra layer of fun and challenge.
