However, the problem is that the game starts to become easy – despite procedural generation, you can end up with an almost rhythmic approach to diffusion. It’s a big experience that forces you and friends to work together as one to try and find a solution to a very serious problem. An interesting concept, though by no means perfect (7/10)įor most, Keep Talking offers an interesting party game that feels a bit more robust than other alternatives. Each bomb comes with numerous modules to diffuse, and each piece works apart from one another – they can be disarmed in any order, making it easier for both parties to work as one. The end result is a highly comical experience where expert and diffuser need to find consensus and work together without getting frustrated. The diffuser has to take the instructions and try to translate them into the actual bomb in front of them. Co-operation is essential, forcing experts to try and diffuse a bomb they cannot see based on instruction alone. One takes the role of actively combatting the bomb, while the other(s) will take the role of providing the instructions on what to do next. Players are asked to work with at least one other person to try and defuse the bomb. Trying to diffuse a bomb is a stressful experience, but Keep Talking finds a good way to make it fun and engaging. If you have ever played other co-op games like Rockets Are Super Hard, you’ll feel very much at home in this experience.

The game uses procedural generation to ensure the bombs always change to a certain extent, keeping replays fresh and intriguing.
