Product Overview
Blurt! is a fast-paced word game where players race to shout out answers to definition clues before anyone else can. One player reads a clue card aloud (like "a partially dried grape"), and the first person to yell the correct answer (raisin!) moves their pawn forward on the board. The die does double duty here, determining both how many spaces the winner advances and which of the two definitions on each card gets read. First player or team to make it around the board wins.
- Accommodates 3 to 12 players in teams or solo, making it work for small groups or big family gatherings
- Includes 200 double-sided cards with 1,200 total definitions, so repeat plays stay fresh for weeks
- Builds vocabulary and quick-recall skills without feeling like homework, since the competitive shouting keeps the energy high
- Comes with junior version rules for ages 7 to 9, plus standard gameplay for ages 10 and up
- Games move quickly with no downtime between turns, keeping everyone alert and ready to blurt
