You Can't Say Umm – The Fast-Talking Party Game That Bans “Umm”

Think you’re smooth under pressure? Think again.

You Can't Say Umm by Big Potato Games is a hilariously chaotic team-based party game where hesitation is your worst enemy. If you pause, stumble, or let an “umm” slip out, the bell rings and the pressure instantly rises.

This is loud, fast-paced fun designed to get everyone talking, laughing, and thinking on their feet.

How to Play

Two teams race to move their pieces across the board first. To advance, players must describe strange and unusual objects from randomly drawn cards without saying “umm” or any other banned sounds.

It sounds simple, but it quickly becomes a frantic challenge.

As each team moves closer to the finish line, more sounds become off-limits. What starts as a straightforward speaking challenge transforms into a high-pressure race filled with quick thinking, creative descriptions, and plenty of hilarious slip-ups.

Why You’ll Love It

You Can't Say Umm is designed for instant engagement. The rules are easy to learn, making it perfect for mixed-age groups and first-time players. Each round lasts around 15 minutes, making it ideal for parties, family gatherings, or as a warm-up game before a longer session.

Because the cards and escalating restrictions change every time you play, no two games feel the same. The added pressure of the bell creates unforgettable moments and keeps the energy high from start to finish.

Child Development Benefits

Beyond the laughter, You Can't Say Umm offers powerful developmental benefits for children aged 10 and up.

Builds Communication Skills

Players must describe unfamiliar objects clearly and confidently without filler words. This strengthens vocabulary, verbal fluency, articulation, and expressive language skills.

Encourages Quick Thinking

The time pressure develops cognitive flexibility and fast processing skills. Children learn to think on their feet and organise their thoughts rapidly.

Improves Confidence

Speaking in front of others without hesitation builds public speaking confidence in a low-pressure, supportive environment.

Strengthens Listening Skills

Team members must actively listen to one another to respond quickly and avoid banned sounds, reinforcing attention and auditory processing.

Promotes Teamwork and Social Skills

As a team-based party game, it encourages collaboration, turn-taking, empathy, and cooperative problem-solving.
