![]() The new version for Nintendo Switch more accurately approximates that original VR experience.

To get an idea of what I’m talking about, check out a video I made with the Polygon family over Skype a few years ago. The Bomb Defusal Manual is freely available online, so you can have it open on your phone or printed out on sheets of paper. The instructions on how to defuse the bomb are in the hands of another group of players who are outside of VR. ![]() ![]() Trouble is, they have no idea what they’re doing. Players then use the controls to manipulate modules on the bomb, inputting codes and clipping wires before time runs out. On the virtual table in front of them is an elaborate bomb. The premise is simple: One player dons the VR headset, becoming fully immersed inside a dimly lit room. The original version was a virtual reality title, custom built for an early version of the Oculus Rift. In fact, I’m actually more likely to carry around the tiny, hybrid console knowing that I’ve got the game installed.ĭevelopment of Keep Talking started in 2014 as a result of the Global Game Jam. Porting the game over to Switch makes all kinds of sense. Keep Talking and Nobody Explodes, a game where you work together with friends to defuse explosives, is now available on the Nintendo Switch.
