STORY

In this age of heroes, you are apprentices of the prestigious Academy wielding the Boom Gauntlets that bestow diverse abilities to its wielder by charging it with Gold Energies.

But before you shall own your own genuine gauntlets, you will need to use the limited Gold Energies & special hand actions you learned during your training to attack and deal damage to other apprentices, defend against attacks, or use other actions to reach your objective. Since you are all just trainees, damage dealt without the Boom Gauntlet will not threaten your life. Virtual red cubes will just float around you in this special training ground so that trainers will be able to see your current damage.

And one of the skills to be tested is how you can read your opponents. So, the trainers gave you secret roles for your objective.

Will you be able to pass this challenge to be the next Boom Hero?


OVERVIEW & OBJECTIVE

Over the course of several rounds, players will try to achieve their secret Role's objective and also guess other players' secret Roles to hinder their objectives by simultaneously making specific hand gestures; with all sorts of Actions but often involve taking damages and energies or affecting a player's Role.

After all Action Cards are played and discarded, players will guess all the players' Roles. The player that achieves their Role's objective and correctly guesses the most Roles wins the game!
