Product Overview
Hasbro Gaming Taboo Classic is a team-based word-guessing party game in which players attempt to get teammates to identify a target word without using a list of prohibited clue words. Model F5254 updates the familiar Taboo format with 212 cards containing 848 Guess words drawn from a range of contemporary and general topics.
Players divide into teams and take turns selecting a describer. The describer gives verbal clues while avoiding the forbidden words printed on the card. A player from the opposing team monitors the clues and uses the supplied squeaker when a prohibited word or other restricted clue is used. A sand timer limits each turn, and points are recorded using the included notepad.
The documented configuration is intended for four or more players ages 13 years and older. It requires no batteries for standard physical play. Model and manufacturer part number F5254, UPC 195166210711, and GTIN 00195166210711 identify this exact Classic Edition configuration.
