Description

From the Official Website:

How it works: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 that will 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 at the same time!
Virtual Reality supported, but not required. Play with a regular monitor!
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 and playing remotely.]]
