Program Description

Event Details

You’re alone in a vr room with a bomb, your group have the info you need to defuse it but they can’t see the bomb, so everyone will need to talk it out– fast!

 

The game tasks a player with disarming  bombs with the assistance of other players who are reading a manual containing instructions. It is designed to be played with at least two players, with one player as the "Defuser", playing the game on a the virtual reality headset and the remaining players as the "Experts" reading the bomb defusal manual.  The Defuser cannot look at the manual and must rely on the Experts to instruct them. The Experts cannot see the bomb, and must rely on the Defuser to describe the bomb to them; The Experts and the Defuser can communicate with each other either.

Each bomb in the game consists of multiple modules that can be disarmed in any order; whebn all the modules on the bomb are disabled, the bomb is successfully disarmed.
