Trapwords review

Trapwords is a word game that's a twist on the classic Taboo. It's like a dungeon crawl where your team has to guess a word while avoiding "trapwords" chosen by the opposing team. You don't know what the trapwords are, so it feels like walking through a minefield! This makes it super fun and strategic. The game has a really cool theme with curses, monsters, and different stages that add to the excitement.

I was a little hesitant at first because I thought it would be weird not knowing the forbidden words. But it's actually really fun! You have to think differently about how you're going to describe the word, and it makes it much more engaging than just relying on a pre-written list of words.

The game also has a lot of customization options. You can change the stages, the number of curses, and even add more abilities to the monsters. This makes the game super replayable and keeps it from getting stale.

If you're a fan of Taboo or Codenames, then you'll definitely enjoy Trapwords. It's a great game for parties, family game nights, or just hanging out with friends. I'm really glad I got it, and I'm sure you will be too!
