Bomb Squad (EN)

from Tasty Minstel Games:

The sergeant hangs the phone up. "Multiple hostages, numerous bombs. We're up." We grab our gear, prep the robot and load the van. It's go time...

An unknown terrorist organization is on the rise, looking to spread fear while profiting from the chaos they release. You, your fellow members of the Retro City Bomb Squad, and your trusty Bomb Squad Robot are the only barriers in the way between those dastardly villains and the innocent civilians of Retro City. Lives are at stake — and time is ticking — so let's go!

Bomb Squad is a cooperative game in which 2-6 players are members of a team operating a disposal robot with the mission to disarm bombs and save hostages. The players work together, racing against the clock to provide the appropriate instructions for the robot to achieve their mission objectives. Bomb Squad features:

- Real-time play: Players each take a turn in clockwise order and are free to take as long as they want on their turn. However, there is a timer counting down in real time until the bombs will detonate, so players will want to be as efficient as possible.

- Hidden Card Information: Players hold their cards so that the fronts are facing the other players, which requires that players give each other Intel to figure out which cards they have in hand.

- Limited Communication: While players have their cards up and visible to each other, players are allowed to communicate only via the Intel they give each other, which provides hints about the cards they have in their hands. Table talk about which cards are needed, or where the robot should go, and giving implied hints about which cards to play are prohibited.

- Co-operative game play: The players all work together, winning or losing collectively as a team.

Ihr seid das Team, welches vor Ort die gefährlichsten Bomben entschärfen muss, um unschuldige Leben zu retten.

Zeit ist in Bomb Squad alles und gilt es nicht zu verlieren, wenn man möglichst viele Bomben entschäfen will. Bis zu sechs Spieler können in diesem Brettspiel gemeinsam antreten und sich der Heausforderung stellen.

Jeder Spieler verfügt über eine Kartenhand, mit denen er den Sprengmechansimus jeder Bombe entschäfen kann. Das Problem ist nur, daß man selbst keinen Einblick in seine Kartenhand hat und demzufolge auf die Hilfe der anderen Mispieler angewiesen ist, um die richtigen Karten auszuspielen. Doch kann man lediglich über Hinweiskarten miteinander kommunizieren, welche lediglich die geeigneten Karten andeuten. Das ganze spielt sich schlussendlich noch in echtzeit ab und endet nach spätestens 30 Minuten mit der Detonation der letzten Bombe.
