BOMB CO.™

"This job is the bomb!" – Former BombCo Employee

Welcome to BombCo, the world's leading provider of Explosive Disposal Solutions™. You're the newest hire on the disposal desk. Bombs come in. Bombs must go out (defused, ideally). Your coworkers will not stop talking. The clock is ticking, both on the bombs and on your shift.

Survive the workday. Hit your quota. Try not to explode in front of HR.


The Job

Bombs slide onto your desk all shift long. Grab them, crack them open, and defuse them before the timer hits zero. Then submit the defused bomb in the disposal drawer.

Miss a deadline, and it detonates. Detonate and... uh... your parking spot opens up.


Know Your Bombs

Every bomb is a different flavor of workplace stress:


The Screw Bomb

Grab the screwdriver, pop the panels, and expose the guts. Honest, satisfying, blue-collar bomb work. The kind of bomb your father defused.


The Memory Bomb

It flashes a sequence. You repeat it back. Get it wrong, and it politely deducts time from your remaining lifespan. It's basically a team-building exercise.


The Wire Bomb

A number is scrawled on the casing. Dial it on the office phone, and a deeply unbothered operator tells you which wires to cut. Then you snip them. Cut the right ones, and it's defused. Cut the wrong one and, well... don't cut the wrong one.


The Office Is Also Trying to Kill You

The bombs are the easy part. The office is the real challenge:

  • Chatty coworkers who wander over mid-defuse to share their weekend.
  • The boss, who slaps a clipboard quiz on your desk at the worst possible moment.
  • Flies. So many flies.
  • A needy computer with emails piling up, hoping to find you well.

Everything wants your hands and your attention. The bomb does not care that you're busy.


How to Work the Desk (Controls)

  • Left-click to interact: flip switches, mash buttons, snip wires, answer the phone.
  • Right-click to grab and drag anything around your desk.
  • The disposal drawer is where defused bombs are filed.
  • Left-click and type on the computer to answer those pesky emails.
  • Left-click and enter digits on the phone to call a number.

Clock in. Defuse. Repeat. Don't get fired.
