The game is simple. Players from the two teams sit alternating around in a circle. Players take turns as the "giver," who make his or her teammates guess as many words as possible in the given time. However, each card also has "taboo" (forbidden) words listed which may not be spoken. If giver speaks one of taboo words, that word is considered "failed" and the giver must move on to the next word. For example, the giver might have to get his or her team to guess the word "baseball" without offering the words "sport", "game", "pastime", "hitter", "pitcher", or "baseball" itself as clues. The giver may not say a part of a "taboo" word; for example, using "base" in "baseball" is taboo. The giver may only use speech to prompt his or her teammates; gestures, sounds (e.g. barking), or drawings are not allowed.

While the giver is prompting the teammates they may make as many guesses as they want with no penalties for wrong guesses. Once the team correctly guesses the word exactly as written on the card, the giver moves on to the next word, trying to get as many words as possible in the allotted time. When time runs out, play passes to the next adjacent player of the other team. The playing team receives points for correct guesses and penalty points if "taboo" words are spoken.
