How to play
Every round one phone secretly gets a lit bomb. Every phone shows the same screen: a button for each player and a pocket you can peek into. Tap a name to pass the bomb. If you don't have it, tapping does nothing, but it looks and feels exactly the same, so keep tapping to cover for whoever has it. The TV only shows a burning fuse; nobody knows how long it is. Every 4 seconds you hold the bomb earns 1 heat point, so the greedy keep it a little longer. When it blows, whoever holds it loses that round's heat and 3 points. Then everyone bets 3 chips on who had it: +1 per chip on the right player. The holder gets +1 for every player who didn't bet on them (up to 3). Finally the TV shows the bomb's whole path. Five rounds; most points wins.
