About this game

In Keep Talking and Nobody Explodes, one player is trapped in a virtual room with a ticking time bomb they must defuse. The other players are the “Experts” who must give the instructions to defuse the bomb by deciphering the information found in the Bomb Defusal Manual. But there’s a catch: the Experts can’t see the bomb, so everyone will need to talk it out –fast!

Features:

  • Challenging puzzles – Test the limits of your communication skills… and friendships?
  • A different bomb every time – Procedurally generated puzzles keep the action fresh.
  • Local multiplayer party game – A great way to experience VR with all of your friends!
  • Only one copy of the game needed – If you can talk to the bomb Defuser, you can be their Expert. Try using your favorite voice chat service to play remotely.
  • Requires 2 or more players – Bomb defusing is a team endeavor. Going solo is not an option!
  • Mixed reality supported – See your friends in the lobby as you select missions.

Requires free Bomb Defusal Manual available at www.bombmanual.com

What players say

4.5 from 572 ratings on the Meta Quest Store

A hidden gem...

This game really shines when you take the extra step to print out the physical pages to the manual which really helps add to the frantic fun and just really takes it to another level...do yourself a favor and familiarize yourself with the game and how it works ahead of time for more…

Critical review

Hmm.

Pulled it out for a party. Kind of a bust. Most people were newer to vr and really struggled. It should be setup for like 8 minutes by default not 5.
