Outburst is a team-orientated trivia game. The game plays similar to the game show "Family Feud." Each game begins with two teams. Each team draws a topic card and places it into the plastic holder, which conceals the answers. Each topic has multiple answers. For example, a topic could be "Top 10 Brands of Cereal." A minute timer begins, and the players must yell out possible answers to the topic. Players earn points based on each correct answer, and the teams take turns with different topic cards. The first team to 60 points wins the game.
Outburst has developed updated and alternate versions of the game named Outburst 2, Outburst Remix, Outburst Junior, Ultimate Outburst and Outburst Bible Edition. All of these games once carried or currently carried a retail price of $29.99.
