About Bomb It
The short story of a very small game with a very loud ending.
How it started
Like a lot of people, we fell down the bomb-chip-challenge rabbit hole: friends around a table, a bag of chips, five secretly "armed" ones, and that beautiful moment of pure panic right before someone takes a bite. We wanted to play it too — except our friends live in three different countries, and shipping a rigged bag of chips across Europe felt like a logistics problem nobody needed.
So we built the web version. Same secret bombs, same bluffing, same panic — no chips required. You and one opponent each hide bombs, then take turns tapping cells, and hitting the other person's bomb costs you a heart. Last one standing wins. It's built for 2 players, plus as many spectators as want to watch the chaos.
What we believe
Party games should start faster than they take to explain. So Bomb It has:
- No accounts. Share a 6-letter room code, a link, or a QR code and you're in.
- No downloads. It runs in the browser, on phones and laptops alike.
- No dark patterns. No energy meters, no login streaks, no "watch an ad to keep your hearts." A full round takes less time than reading this page.
Who's behind it
Bomb It is built and operated by a small independent studio — an Estonian company, to be exact. There's no publisher and no growth team, just a few people who like making small games. The site is supported by ads, which is what keeps it completely free to play.
What's next
We're working on bigger party rooms and visual themes for the board. But honestly, the roadmap is mostly shaped by the people who play — so if there's something you want, tell us. We read everything.
