Taboo – Discover EU

Taboo is a fun and fast-paced word guessing game that challenges players to describe a word without using certain related «taboo» words.

Goal:

Get your team to guess the target word at the top of the card without saying any of the 5 forbidden words listed below it.

How to Play:

  1. Split into two teams.
  2. One player from Team A is the clue-giver. They pick a card and must describe the target word.
  3. They cannot say the forbidden words, or use gestures, sounds, or parts of the word.
  4. Team A has 1 minute to guess as many cards as possible.
  5. If the clue-giver says a forbidden word, the round is skipped or a point is lost.
  6. Then it’s Team B’s turn.

Scoring:

+1 point for each correct guess
–1 point for each taboo word used

✨ EU Version Twist:

Use EU-related target words (like European Commission) and taboo words (like lawBrussels). It’s a fun way to learn about EU institutions and policies!
