Board Game Timebomb

The Timebomb is an exciting board game of social deduction and bluffing, designed by Yusuke Sato and published by Arclight Games. In the game, players take on secret roles as agents or terrorists, aiming either to defuse or detonate a bomb planted at Big Ben. The game supports 4 to 8 players, ages 10 and up, with an average playtime of about 15 minutes.

During the game, players receive role and wire cards, which they shuffle and place in front of them. In each round, players select a wire from another player to cut, revealing either success cards that aid in defusing the bomb or threat cards that bring the explosion closer. The agents' team wins if all success cards are revealed, while the terrorists' team wins if the explosion card is uncovered or if four rounds are completed without the bomb being defused. Timebomb offers tension, strategic thinking, and entertaining moments of bluffing, making it ideal for groups seeking a quick and interactive game.
