The game features five types of cards: <strong>Good, Bad, Joker, Heal-Bill, and Peek-o-Boo.</strong></p></li><li><p class="bb_paragraph" >Before starting, you can either build your own deck from these cards, or simply begin with Good and Bad cards. (We recommend starting with the basics first, then spicing up your strategy with the other cards.)</p></li><li><p class="bb_paragraph" >When players join, each receives 5 cards. The first player creates a packet from their hand and plays it to the center. Others then draw from that packet. The main goal: <strong>be the first to reveal 4 Good cards.</strong></p></li><li><p class="bb_paragraph" >If a player draws a Bad card, they must roll a die—and depending on the result, the TNT crate they’re sitting on might just explode!</p></li></ul><p class="bb_paragraph" ></p><p class="bb_paragraph" ><span class="bb_img_ctn"><video class="bb_img" autoplay muted loop playsinline poster="https://shared.akamai.steamstatic.com/store_item_assets/steam/apps/3567800/extras/f72c9a3484ff34016967d4919fc9b6f4.poster.avif?t=1763645677" width=780 height=438 ><source src="https://shared.akamai.steamstatic.com/store_item_assets/steam/apps/3567800/extras/f72c9a3484ff34016967d4919fc9b6f4.webm?t=1763645677" type="video/webm; codecs=vp9"><source src="https://shared.akamai.steamstatic.com/store_item_assets/steam/apps/3567800/extras/f72c9a3484ff34016967d4919fc9b6f4.mp4?t=1763645677" type="video/mp4"></video></span></p><p class="bb_paragraph" ></p><h2 class="bb_tag" ><strong>Gameplay</strong></h2><ul class="bb_ul"><li><p class="bb_paragraph" >The starting player is chosen at random. They build a packet of 1–5 cards from their hand and place it on the table. Players then take turns revealing cards from that packet.</p></li><li><p class="bb_paragraph" >Revealing a <strong>Good</strong> card allows you to keep going. Revealing a <strong>Bad</strong> card forces you to roll the die, bringing you closer to the TNT limit. If the total exceeds the limit, you literally blow up and return to the game as a <strong>monkey</strong> to mess with the others.</p></li><li><p class="bb_paragraph" >If you already have Good cards on the table and then reveal a Bad card, all your Good cards return to your hand and you must roll the dice.</p></li><li><p class="bb_paragraph" >If you have no cards in front of you and draw a Bad, the Bad stays on the table. When you later draw a Good, both return to your hand.</p></li><li><p class="bb_paragraph" >Special cards trigger their unique effects immediately when drawn, then return to the player’s hand.</p></li></ul><p class="bb_paragraph" ></p><p class="bb_paragraph" ><span class="bb_img_ctn"><img class="bb_img" src="https://shared.akamai.steamstatic.com/store_item_assets/steam/apps/3567800/extras/2d1d369c6bed2af0dd67e7cb81dbdda2.avif?t=1763645677" width=940 height=250 /></span></p><p class="bb_paragraph" ></p><h2 class="bb_tag" ><strong>Good</strong></h2><p class="bb_paragraph" >The players' main goal to win is to reveal 4 Good cards.
