- Pass the bomb is a game of intrigue and skills played between 2 teams of up to 5 players
- Players are to pass around a ticking bomb and scoring for each successful use of the bomb.
- Bomb tricks (abilities) can be acquired and used in-game to sabotage your opponent or get out of a sticky situation.
Gameplay
- The objective of the game is to be the first team to reach the score limit within 10 rounds. In the event that no team reached the score limit by the final round, the team with the highest score wins
- Play begins with a random player starting off as the dealer, and he/she will be the only player who knows the detonation number for that round
- Each player will have a number of available options when the bomb is passed to them. (Shake it 1/2/3 times, skip, reverse and if available, a learnt ability)
- With the exception of Shake 1 (+1), all other available options are limited to one use per round.
- Special abilities are limited to one use per game.
- Players increase their score by safely shaking the bomb, pushing it closer to detonation each shake. The higher the bomb counter, the higher the risk of detonation and the greater the score increase.
- The unfortunate player who triggers the detonation will incur a penalty or 25% to his current score or 100, whichever is greater.
- Upon detonation, the current round ends and the new round begins with the player who triggered the detonation being the dealer.
