Taboo: The Sixth Sense is a video game developed by Rare and published by Tradewest for the Nintendo Entertainment System in 1989 that simulates a tarot reading.

Upon loading, the game requires input of the player's name, birth date, and gender. The game then asks the user to input a question, and shuffles the cards. The game then generates a tarot reading via the Celtic cross layout. Afterward, the player chooses the state that he/she is from and will be given lottery numbers accordingly.

The game's many criticisms arise from the fact that there is no actual game activity to be found apart from repeated readings. Due to the controversial nature of tarot reading, and its perceived unsuitability for use with what was commonly perceived as children's toy, the game suffered poor sales.
