What is this game about? It's a logic puzzle game. There's sources of energy and lines on which the energy travels, there's components on those lines, such as switches, logic gates (AND, OR, XOR) and some others, that will change on which lines the energy travels or doesn't. The goal is to either get the energy to certain endpoints (often multiple ones, at the same time) or to cut an already existing energy line, all while avoiding to supply energy to specific other endpoints. Namely, for most levels, there's a timer with detonator, featuring one endpoint for power which is already supplied by default, one to three "disarm" endpoints that have to be simultaneously supplied with energy to work, and one "detonator" endpoint, supplying which will mean instant defeat. A few levels are introduction levels, which only serve to show off how a part works, and the remainder - slightly more than a handful, really - are the most interesting ones, featuring clocks and detonators as separate parts, with the goal being either to cut power to the clock, to the detonator, or to cut the connection between the power output of the clock (that goes active once the clock hits 00:00) and the detonator input of the detonator.

I really loved playing the game's campaign missions. It was such a thrilling experience to witness the gradual buildup of tension and difficulty throughout. The more I immersed myself in the game, the more challenging the puzzles became, keeping me on my toes. While I could conquer most of the bombs with my logic-thinking skills, there were a few mind-blowing ones that left me craving for hints. It's truly awe-inspiring to see the level creator's imagination at work, crafting such imaginative challenges that push the boundaries of what I thought was impossible.

Decent puzzle game. Not too easy or too difficult, if you can pick up understanding of logic functions.

The recent "The Fastest Hand Event" is totally a carnival of crazy CHEATERS, of course including MYSELF. It is IGNOMINIOUS that all top players sell their souls to just $100, and that the developers are totally unaware of all these apparent cheating activities. We all should be nailed to the pillar of shame. Any conscientious steam user needs to look at what we've done. Hope everyone can realize why he/she buy and play a game, and what fair competition is.

[b]Who knew defusing bombs could be so much fun?[/b] This game is a blast, it's like Dark Souls but with bombs. You gotta be careful with every move you make, or the dreaded explosion sound keeps banging your head. You might even start to feel like a real-life bomb expert. Indeed it is a hardcore game, I mean like millions of lives would depend on your every move, but you'll find some stages amusing and easy to take, guess the developers and publishers have some sense of humor. Workshop is also available for this game, you could be the bomb technician or the wildest terrorist. [i]At least those IoT course sessions in universities won't go to waste![/i] ^V^

I don't normally write reviews for games before finishing them, but the developer currently requires you to write a review (positive or negative) to be able to submit your scores. This is kind of a crap system, but it looks like they're trying to put something better together. That's really the only criticism that I have of this game so far. I'm about four chapters in, and it is a super fun little circuit puzzle game. Each stage is a bomb that you have to defuse. It starts off very simple - just a couple of wires and a switch. But little by litte, more components get introduced, and the designs become more and more complex. There's a timer (it's a bomb, so obviously), but you can retry as many times as you like. For me, it seems like the perfect difficulty curve, and it's very satisfying defusing each bomb. If that sounds interesting to you, you'll probably love it. If it sounds awful, you should probably stay away, but then again you're probably not reading reviews for this game to begin with. I'm a big fan of Zacktronics games, and games like Turing Complete, Signal State, and stuff like Factorio and Satisfactory. If you like some or all of these (and possibly even if you don't), I'm pretty sure that you'll enjoy this. Personally, I'm having a blast.

Amazing game, this game teaches the basics of eletronic components while you defuse the bomb. The Level are superb, also a well-designed level editor, hope to see people start making their own bomb

The more I spent my time playing this game, the more brain cells I lost for it. :< This is a puzzle-solving game which require the understanding for logic gates and timing, the more I play, the more difficult it get. If you are trying to find a great strategy with precise timing and hardcore game, this is a game I am going to recommend it. Thank the publisher and developer for making me feel dumb with this game <3
