About the game

What you do in a play session

In All Is Bomb you take on the role of a royal servant with an explosive mission: whip up the perfect breakfast for the sleeping princess before everything literally blows up. The deck consists of just 18 cards, each with a passive and an ignited side that change state as you play them. After an initial setup you equip a few cards; the number on the card you play tells you which card in the deck you will equip next, creating a chain of choices you must manage. The goal is to discover, via Prophet cards, which dish the princess wants, ignite (prepare) that dish, and finally play the Princess card to serve the dish exactly when she opens her eyes. There is no luck or hidden information – once the setup is done everything is deterministic, turning each game into a logical puzzle. You must balance discarding important cards against the need to advance card states, because the deck is constantly on the brink of exploding. The game supports solo or two‑player cooperative play; in co‑op both players share the same deck and work together to meet the three win conditions. A playthrough lasts 5‑15 minutes, making it perfect for quick sessions or as a warm‑up. In addition to the core, six modular expansions, a variant and a campaign add new dishes, prophets and challenges, but the base game already feels complete and highly entertaining. The art leans into a comedic fantasy vibe, emphasizing the absurd urgency. Being a Print‑and‑Play title, you simply print the cards and follow the component list, though a translated sheet is recommended for non‑English speakers. All Is Bomb is light, strategic and ideal for fans of card‑based puzzles who dislike randomness.
