Keep Talking and Nobody Explodes is a two or more player game about diffusing bombs where one or more people have the instructions and one can see the bomb. however they can't see what each other are doing.

its surprising intense and an amazingly fun thing to watch.

from the page:

In Keep Talking and Nobody Explodes, one player is trapped in a virtual room with a ticking time bomb they must defuse. The other players are the “Experts” who must give the instructions to defuse the bomb by deciphering the information found in the bomb defusal manual. But there’s a catch: the experts can’t see the bomb, so everyone will need to talk it out – fast!

Rounds are fast-paced, tense, occasionally silly, and almost always loud. Everybody has a role to play whether they are defusing the bomb or not. Swap out between rounds and share the experience with all of your friends!

Puzzle solving and communication skills - and maybe a few friendships - will be put to the test as players race to defuse bombs while communicating quickly, clearly, and effectively.
Features

    Challenging puzzles that will test the limits of your communication skills… and friendships?
    A different bomb every time! Procedurally generated puzzles keep the action fresh.
    Local multiplayer party game – A great way to experience VR with all of your friends at the same time!
    Only one copy of the game needed! If you can talk to the bomb defuser, you can be their expert! Try using your favorite voice chat service and playing remotely.


The bomb defusal manual is freely available at http://www.bombmanual.com and can be printed or viewed on a tablet or any other web-enabled device.

Well, let's say you're going away from Earth on huge spaceship and suddenly shit goes wrong and you have Super Mutants. Social Experiments prepared them for this.

Some days you just can't get rid of a bomb.

You almost got them all!

The bomb defusal manual

Wait, is that a word? I don't think that's a word.

Um.... Crap. *boom*

This does sound like a fun concept.

"Defusal"? I think it is, but dictionary.com seems to think otherwise.

... Yes, the hugs are for everyone.  No stabbing, though.  Just hugs.

Modern bomb disposal techniques were advanced light years by hte discovery of brownian motion.

I'm interested in the game but I only have on efriend I could play it with and he just had a baby.  If people wanted to arrange some kind of thing to make it happen I'd be all over that.  Probably using skype or something.

Might I suggest Discord? It's much more convenient than adding people to skype or finding teamspeak servers etc.

That works too!  I'm always up for a game, if anybody wants to play.  I haven't looked at the manual yet so I'm not sure.  How easy is it to remember its contents?  Like, is this the kind of game where you're one class or the other and you can never switch?  Would reading the manual ruin the game for me?

Yeah, I took a peek, there's no way.  I can't imagine figuring it out enough to even play the expert.  There's a ton of shit to look at, sometimes with multiple steps, and if you get the wrong info or you take too long to find out what to do next your friend is dead.

Oh boy, this game is all over the Internet at the moment. The craziest playthrough belongs to LtHummus and his crew of four experts - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5BhHkvHcUfo
If someone wants to play at a reasonable time for Europe, I'll be up for doing the manual :)
