Before Your First BOMBANANA! Round, Agree on Your Signals

Before your first BOMBANANA! session, agree on how your team will communicate. Choose clear signals for yes, no, repeat, and stop. Describe one puzzle module at a time, and confirm the intended action before anyone touches the bomb. After a failed attempt, ask whether the problem was missing puzzle knowledge or a misunderstood message. That distinction gives your team something specific to improve next round.
I run BOMBANANA! Guide, an independent fan resource with role explanations and preparation checklists. My first session checklist expands on these ideas and offers a practical starting point for your next game with two friends.
