"Keep Talking and Nobody Explodes" is an asymmetrical puzzle/party game where one player in virtual reality must defuse a time bomb with the help of their friends in the real world.

How does it work?

One player puts on a virtual reality headset and finds themselves trapped in a (virtual) room with a randomly generated (virtual) time bomb. On the bomb are a variety of puzzles that need to be solved - but this player has no idea how to solve them. Instead, they must rely on their friends in the real world who have the manual describing how to solve all sorts of puzzles.

Won't this get too easy after a few rounds?

In short, "No". The puzzles on the bomb are selected randomly, and the contents of those puzzles changes too. Every bomb is different. The manual itself is densely packed with information - even the developers haven't come close to memorizing its contents..
