❤ Unique Gameplay Concept

Players trap one teammate in a virtual room with a bomb while others huddle around a complex manual. The isolated player describes intricate bomb modules, while manual-holders frantically decode defusal instructions against a ticking timer.

❤ Module Complexity and Variety

Six distinct module types challenge players: precise wire-cutting puzzles with counterintuitive rules, button interaction challenges demanding split-second decisions, 'Who's on First' word games requiring exact letter identification, Morse code deciphering requiring careful listening, memory sequence reconstructions, and coordinate-based maze navigation.

❤ Communication Mechanics

Success demands players develop rapid, precise verbal shorthand, listen with laser focus, make instantaneous strategic decisions, and manage escalating psychological pressure.

❤ Dynamic Challenge System

Procedurally generated bombs ensure no two defusal attempts repeat, constant unpredictability, and escalating difficulty that adapts to player skill.

❤ Skill Progression

Module complexity increases incrementally, allowing teammates to naturally refine communication strategies and problem-solving techniques.
