Think fast! What word means "a partially dried grape"? Be the first to say "raisin," and you're on your way to winning this riotous game of rapid word recall. Players take turns reading clues aloud, competing to blurt out the correct answer first and move ahead on the board. The first person or team to circle the board wins. Sounds simple, right? But as the race for the right word heats up, and the blurting gets boisterous, it's easy to get tongue-tied!
Blurt is a great vocabulary builder for kids, a hilarious addition to adult parties, and a must for family game night.
Includes junior version for ages 7 to 9.
For 3 to 12 players.

Silliness!by Anonymous
Reader Rating:
August 22, 2009: There isn't any other game that I'd rather play. Wow, I realize that's a lot to live up to. The thing about Blurt is that you can go with all of the add-on directions or you can just stick to the heart of the game. read a clue and be the first to blurt out the word being described. Sounds easier than it is, but it truly is good exercise for your mind. Now if you're playing with a bunch of friends your age it can be all kinds of competitive silliness. What's so crazy is that it really can be fun for all ages. just like the box says, and that doesn't happen with just any board game. When I got my game, my 3½-year-old was so curious that my husband and I sat down and read a few definitions to him. Even he could come up with the answers for words like kitchen, shampoo, kitten, whisper, nap. so it was good practice and he learned a few new words along the way. So it's educational too? You bet it is. You couldn't ask for a better gift idea. Lastly, my number one favorite thing about the game. it's the name. Say it out loud. Blurt, Blurt, Blurt. Enough said. You should hear my little boy say it. Ah, it never gets old.
Great for a Family of Multiple Ages!by TAPTD

August 12, 2009: We owned this game when it was first introduced in the early 90s and are so excited to see it back... better than ever I might add. We played last night as a family. My husband and five year old daughter played on a team because she is not reading yet, but she was able to "blurt" many of the answers before the rest of us. Many of the games we own are more fun for one of the kids because the content is either geared to an older or younger child. Not with Blurt, it has a junior version built in so everyone can play together... it is an easily adjustable game play for all ages. Specifics we like about the game 1.)Young and old can play together and all have a blast 2.) There are a junior level and a higher level on each card so you can adjust for players throughout the game. 3.) There are two elements that can change who is winning at any momement - the one on one and challenge keeps the game moving and could give anyone a chance to get ahead and eventually win at anytime. My son (7) specifically said he liked it because he learned a word that he didn't know before: "flurry." You would think living in Wisconsin he might have known what flurry meant, but then again maybe we only get huge snow storms, not flurries. Educational Insights - thanks for brining our family together to play!
