Pass the Bomb

One of our best-selling games is none other than Pass the Bomb! The ultimate word game that will have the whole family on the edge of their seats.

Pass the Bomb – The Big One

Pass the Bomb - The Big One was brand new for 2020, and is a bigger version of the classic game. It is super fun, fast-paced and action-packed. Pass the Bomb – The Big One contains five different challenges. Rhyme Artist tests players’ rhyming abilities; Word Acrobat forces players to think of words containing all three of the letters on the cards; Category Captain challenges you to think of things that are “smaller than a mouse” or “larger than an elephant”; Puzzle Pro tests your puzzling skills; and Bounce Boss pushes your dexterity to the limit – can you bounce that little wooden ball into that tiny cup? All the while the ticking time-bomb piles on the pressure!
