What Makes Them Bombs – co-op board game Stand Out
8/10 Everything Board Games
“Awesome experience”
A text message leads you to a ticking bomb. Tic-toc! Tic-toc! Every second counts. Which wire to cut – the blue or the red one? Tic-toc! Tic-toc! How to set the control knobs? Tic-toc! Tic-toc! Only two minutes left… Your flashlight battery runs out. The adrenaline kicks in. Will you keep a cool head and manage to defuse the bomb?
FEATURES
- Work together with your Expert Team and see how many people you can save
- Describe what you see using just words so that others understand
- Let your Expert Team talk you through the bomb defusal
- Put your communication skills to the test
- Check leaderboards and see how teams from around the world are doing
WARNING: Time pressure and adrenaline rush may lead to shouting, swearing, and misunderstandings, which can cause temporary resentment between friends or silent treatment from a spouse…
GAME RULES
One of the players takes on the role of the Unlikely Hero, who finds a bomb and tries to defuse it. The hero is the only player who uses iPad or iPhone. The other players become the Expert Team and they have access to the bomb defusal manual. They cannot see what the Hero sees on the screen, and the Hero cannot see the content of the manual.
Players can only use verbal communication, just as if the Expert Team and the Unlikely Hero were talking through a radio.
PLEASE NOTE:
- IMPORTANT – Defusing bombs on iPhones and iPads requires slightly different defusal approaches – make sure you download a version of the "Manual" compatible with your device!
- Some game items and features are available in the in-app purchase.
This Board game offers engaging gameplay and regular updates for mobile players.

Community Insight:
Varied and cooperative, very fun for two and probably more people as well.
We have lots if fun playing this.
Very fun a bit confusing at first but we think thats the charm of it you have to figure some stuff out at the beginning but when you get the hang of it, it gets really fun.
Love this game for long distance relationships, we had a great time with our boyfriend we love it so much.
Really amazing game to play even challenging.
We like that you need to work with your peers to beat the gsme.
Great game to play with friends and test communication skills.
The game is absolutely fabulous. We played this with our friends and we had so much fun! 10/10 would recommend.
Omg us and our friend bonded so greatly over this game. We giggled and smiled and had a jolly old time. We learned how to work together and really strengthened our communication skills. For sure an awesome team building activity , especially for women who are doubted in the field of engineering. We felt pride in accomplishing this task and even had a snack together afterwards. Thank you them bombs, lol (lots of love) -us.
We played this with our boyfriend and we had so much fun, its amazing, we thinking to buy the full game.
We played this with our sibling and it keeps us entertained for great amounts of time.
If we buy the full version, does the other person have access to it or would we also have to buy it.
Played with a cousin when together, great 2 player game.
Cool game to play with your girl.
Very fun if youre bored or not even just to play something entertaining.
Awesome game love the pressure of the game.
The game is great especially with the girlfriend or spouse who loves puzzles. But based on the free levels we think Id prefer ads than a paid version as much was left to the imagination of how difficult it can be.
It was a great game, our friend and we were addicted! 10/10 would recommend.
Its so interesting, we love it and our friends love it too.
This is a fun game to play with friends wether in person or online! The only thing we dont like is that it stresses us out a lot. Other then that this is a really fun game to play.
Us encanta aunque discuta con mi pareja pero la amo mucho.
BEST GAME EVER Its pretty stressful but its a good game to play with friends. Its fun and you can do it over and over again without it getting boring.

We downloaded this game because we enjoy puzzles and co-op games, this app is the perfect fusion of both.

Am absolutely amazed at this game and love it.

This game is fun to play, it gets easier with experience and the more players the harder it will be.
