Keep Talking & Nobody Explodes in IOS

Defuse bombs with your friends

Walkthrough, Guilds, Tips on this special game

Our Expert Score

94/100

Keep Talking and Nobody Explodes is arguably the best local co-op game ever brought to mobile. It turns your iPad or phone into a ticking time bomb and forces players to actually communicate under pressure. One person sees the bomb, the others see the manual, and neither can see the other's screen. The result is pure, hilarious chaos.

The touch controls work perfectly for manipulating the bomb modules—cutting wires, pressing buttons, and navigating mazes feels tactile and urgent. It is a fantastic party game that bridges the gap between digital and physical play. Just be prepared for some shouting—it’s all part of the fun!

Available on: iPhone, iPad, iPod

Version 1.9.23Mon Nov 23 2020

Now available in 26 new languages!


You’re alone in a room with a bomb. Your friends, the “Experts”, have the manual needed to defuse it. But there’s a catch: the Experts can’t see the bomb, so everyone will need to talk it out – fast!

Rounds are fast-paced, tense, occasionally silly, and almost always loud. Whether it’s defusing a bomb or deciphering information from the manual, everyone has a crucial role to play.

Put your puzzle-solving and communication skills to the test as you and your friends race to defuse bombs while attempting to communicate quickly before time runs out!

Features

• Challenging puzzles – Test the limits of your communication skills… and friendships?

• A different bomb every time – Procedurally generated puzzles keep the action fresh.

• A pocket party game for two or more local players – Bring it to your next game night, party, or event to play with friends.

• Mobile portability – Shield your screen from the prying eyes of your Experts.

• Only one copy of the game needed – Have friends join in as “Experts” with their own device. Share the Defusal Manual using AirDrop or visit bombmanual.com

• In-person, multiplayer only – A team game intended for players in the same physical space. Online play is not supported.

• Mission and Free Play Modes – Missions increase in difficulty as players face new modules and constraints are introduced. Unlock Freeplay Mode to set your own pace by creating custom bombs.

In Keep Talking and Nobody Explodes, one player is trapped in a room with a ticking time bomb they must defuse. The other players are the 'Experts' who must give instructions 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!
