Keep Talking and Nobody Explodes

K​eep Talking and Nobody Explodes is an indie puzzle co-op game developed and published by Steel Crate Games on 8 October, 2015. It has only been released on the PC. In the game it is mainly for two players, as it is impossible to play single-player. The game involves one player having a bomb in front of them, and the other player/s telling them how to defuse it. The other players will have to read the game's bomb defusal manual, while the player playing the game listens to them and acts upon what they say e.g. cutting a wire they tell them to cut. The player will have a limited time to defuse the bomb before it explodes, so the players reading the manual will have to constantly talk to the player about what to do.

The player defusing the bomb will be sitting in a small room. The players not playing will have the bomb defusal manual in front of them. The bomb defuser will pick up the bomb and ask the other players what they should do. The readers have to read the manual carefully and ask the defuser to identify what several areas of the bomb are like e.g. two red wires and a yellow wire. The readers will then tell the defuser what to do with the information they got from the defuser. If they say the right information and the defuser does it properly, the light next to the puzzle will turn green. If the defuser does it wrong, they will get a 'strike'. If they get too many strikes the bomb will explode by itself. The bomb defusal systems that occur include cutting wires, pressing/holding buttons, pressing buttons in order, moving a dot across a board and pressing a number combination.
