Description

Boom-O is a fast-paced and simple elimination card game that's all about clearing your hand before your opponents do. With just 20 minutes of playtime, you can jump into a game with 2 to 6 friends and family members. The rules are easy to learn, so you can start playing right away. Each player starts with 7 cards and three time bomb cards, and the goal is to get rid of all your cards without flipping over all your time bombs. As you play, you'll use cards to increase or decrease the timer total, trying to keep it under 60. You'll also encounter familiar commands like Skip, Reverse, and Draw, which can help you or hinder your opponents. The game is all about hand management and strategy, and the player who clears their hand first wins. But be careful - if you can't play a valid card, you'll have to flip over one of your time bombs, and if you flip all three, you're out of the game.
