Product Description

It's the triple Gameplay - for triple the fun! Play classic two-team Outburst... plus backwards Reverseburst...plus bidding Challenge Burst. Three ways to play the game! You remember Outburst: Your team hears a Topic like "basic Ice Cream Flavors". Now yell out every name you can think of. But no matter how wonderful or numerous or humorous your answers are, you only get credit for the names that are on the Topic card! In Reverseburst, you're given the answers. Now guess the Topic! The fewer clues you need, the further ahead you move. In Challenge Burst, both teams bet how many "correct" answers they can come up with. The team that wins the bid has to make good on their bet - or their rivals surge ahead the amount of their bid! Ultimate Outburst. It's the Classic Game of Verbal Explosions times 3 ... for 3 times the fun!

Let loose in this game of verbal explosions. It's best to play with an even number of people so that you can split up into teams. First, your team gets a topic like "commands you give a dog." Then you shout out answers for 60 seconds in an attempt to name the commands given on the game card. There are plenty of answers but the ten that score points are the only ten listed on the game card. I wouldn't recommend this game for young kids since a lot of the topics would be a bit too advanced for them. A great party game though.

I've played Outburst since it first came out over 20 years ago. I like this new version because you can choose the categories you want in the beginning. The choices become fewer as the game goes on. There's a strategy towards the end of the game to give the tougher categories to your opponents. My group just plays the straight Outburst game. We tried the Reverseburst but didn't really care for it. But this game always livens up a dull party.

I love good, fun board games. The educational aspect is a bonus, which this one meets. We brought this one over to a friend's house and we had a blast. Everyone got into the game and we all got so animated. This can be played with the family and/or friends. I would recommend this product to anyone who likes board games that are both fun and educational. The only negative thing I can say about this game is: once we go through the entire deck of cards, it won't be challenging anymore and so will be sitting in the closet...waiting for someone else to play it.
