Seconds

One bomb. One shared minute. Guess the word, pass the bomb β€” don't be holding it when it blows.

How to Play

  1. Set up a game - name your 2 teams and set member counts, pick word categories (or add your own custom one), and tune the rules: Round length (the shared fuse, default 60s), Lives per team (default 3), and Skips per turn.
  2. Open a room (optional) - get a 4-letter code so everyone can watch and play from their own phone. Without a room, it's pass-the-phone on one device.
  3. Two devices (optional, needs a room) - tick this so each team gets its own phone. Only the device holding the bomb sees the word and buttons; the other waits on a "get ready" screen.
  4. The team holding the bomb taps πŸ”₯ Arm the bomb to start the shared fuse burning.
  5. One player describes the word out loud for their team to guess - no typing, no buzzers.
  6. βœ“ Got it! - point scored, the bomb passes to the next team with a fresh word, same ticking fuse. ↻ Skip deals a new word to the same team instead, limited by the skips setting.
  7. πŸ’₯ BOOM - when the fuse hits zero, whoever is holding the bomb loses a life. A team at zero lives is eliminated and a fresh fuse starts the next round.
  8. The last team standing wins. If the word deck runs out first, whoever has the most lives wins (ties broken by score; a full tie is a draw).

Works solo-hosted on one phone passed around the table, or with a room open so everyone plays from their own device.
