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?

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.
