About the Game
You’re alone in a room with a bomb. Your friends, the “Experts”, have the manual needed to defuse it. But there’s a catch: the Experts can’t see the bomb, so everyone will need to talk it out – fast!
Put your puzzle-solving and communication skills to the test as you and your friends race to defuse bombs while attempting to communicate quickly before time runs out!
Rounds are fast-paced, tense, occasionally silly, and almost always loud.
Whether it’s defusing a bomb or deciphering information from the manual, everyone has a crucial role to play.

A game that helps you top off your anxiety and stress, strain your friendships, and test your mettle. With the variety of challenges and modules, it can do well in a party game playlist.

Incredible game, and there are still no games like that. Very fun and unique, and despite there being a literal manual, you have to figure out a lot on your own (with a friend). Like, what to optimize, what
