Kaboom

Save the president’s mascot

Players are the leaders of a field squad of four agents and must defuse the bomb in the building. To do so they must cut the correct wires. If they cannot defuse the bomb they must get their agents out of the building on time.

The countdown cards are stacked in decreasing order and face-up, 4 wire cards are set aside face down – this is the combination you need to achieve to defuse the bomb. A move comprises drawing of action cards, to play an action for each agent from your hand, maybe defuse the bomb and reduce cards on hand to four.

Some actions can only be played on or for agents that are in the building, other cards are only valid for agents outside the building. At the start of the game all agents are in the building. Possible actions – among others – are looking at a wire card, cut through a wire – you place the corresponding color card under your agent, taking the agent out of the building. An agent outside can take a card from another player’s hand or remove the top countdown card to shorten the time to bomb explosion. When your agents together have acquired 4 cut cards you can try to defuse the bomb with these four cards in the correct colors. This attempt to defuse the bomb ends the game; before you turn up the cards the mascot is handed to the player who has most of his agents outside. If you defuse the bomb, you win, otherwise the player holding the mascot wins the game.

This is a cute little game with same interesting ideas, the victory condition is very witty and coordinating your agents well is of paramount importance.
