Toys and Games Reviews of Mad Gab

Customer Review: Fabulous Game!
Summary: 5 Stars

I could not believe how much fun this game is! Its pretty much where theres some words (ex. Eye Felt Hour) and you say them and you hear that they really sound like something else (ex. Eye Felt Hour is Eiffel Tower).
We don't play with the timer and all that stuff, we just look at the card and try to figure out what it really is. Its really funny and competitive. I really think this game is great, but I'd say for ages 13 and older.

Description of Mad Gab

Introducing the new game that has everyone speaking a strange new language called Mad Gab. Read a group of simple words aloud, like: "Ask Rude Arrive Her." You and your team-mates have 30 seconds to sound out three puzzles. Guess right and snatch that card. Miss it, and the other team can steal the point.

O.K. the time is set, the card flipper is loaded, and everyone's ready for a laugh riot. Just remember, when it comes to scoring points in Mad Gab, it's not what you say, it's what you hear.

Includes 1,200 Mad Gab puzzles on 300 cards, timer unit, flipper unit, timer/flipper label, score pad and instructions. For 2 to 12 players.


Canoe Key Pace He Grit? Mad Gab is one of the most entertaining and fun talk-out-loud games you'll even play. Teams square off against their opponents in trying to be the first to 25 points, which are earned by solving word puzzles. The puzzles are mondegreens of small words that, when said together, sound like a phrase, famous person, place, or thing. For example, "Canoe Key Pace He Grit" when pronounced quickly sounds like "Can you keep a secret?"

Mad Gab
300 cards, a timer, and a score pad are included. "Eiffel Tower" and "A Model Citizen" are the shown puzzles.

Talking to yourself might have people looking at you funny any other time, but it's almost a prerequisite for Mad Gab. Simply reading "Sea Grit Dress Up Ease" may not be enough to solve the puzzle. But once you start sounding it out slow, fast, slurred, or with quick repetitions, you start to hear "secret recipes" and have the answer. But players should be careful, because if they don't guess correctly before time runs out, then the opposing team has a chance to steal for the point.

The game includes 300 cards featuring 1,200 puzzles with two levels of difficulty. An easy example is "Sand Tack Laws" being Santa Claus, while a hard clue might be "Thigh Sing Gone Thick Ache" (the icing on the cake). A timer, a flipper, labels, a score pad, and instructions are also included.
