A: Hello and thank you for your question regarding the Taboo Game. This funny party game for ages 13+ is an exciting pick for family game nights.
The game is a beloved choice for family gatherings and parties, providing fun and excitement for a wide age range. However, many guests express disappointment with the new design, particularly the absence of the original buzzer and card holders, which made gameplay easier. While the game remains enjoyable, the changes have left some guests feeling frustrated and nostalgic for the previous version.

Hate the new squeaker instead of buzzer
I love the game but hate the new design. I have issues with my thumbs and cannot squeeze a squeaker plus it doesn’t make enough sound. It’s a really bad design for older folks. I also miss the card holders that made it easier to flip through the cards. I can’t return the game because the stickers used to seal the box tore the box when I removed them. Total waste of money. I would give this 1 star if I didn’t like the game itself so much, though I doubt I’ll ever use this board.

Great game for older elementary age
My 4th grader loves this game!! it's her favorite and the kids seem to do well with the difficulty level. Love the squeaker instead of the buzzer-it's better for my son with sensitivities.

Solid
There is no plastic card box like in the old game and the new cards are a tight fit in the old box. Other than that, classic and refreshed.

Disappointing Version of a Beloved Game
What's happening here? Why did we have to downgrade such a fun game? I bought this version for my kids because I loved Taboo as a kid and I wanted them to enjoy it as well. Holy moly, this version is so sad. The fun buzzer is gone and was replaced by an annoying squeaky toy. The card holder is completely gone. The score cards are so much tinier. It's easy to see that they were trying to cut corners for this entire game. I will be searching eBay for the beloved original because this is not it.
