The bomb lives in the link
Everything about your bomb is in the address you send. There is no database, and no server sees what you built.
Magic CamelotMagic Bomb
Build. Send. Defuse.
Fit wires, locks, lasers and gears to your bomb, set the detonator and send it to your friends as a link. They turn the bomb in 3D, crack one module after another and hope that confetti, slime or a cake doesn’t blow up in their faces.
A rebuild of Magic Camelot’s old FunBomb: full 3D from a first-person view, real physics and puzzles that are new with every bomb. The graphics, the music and every sound come from code.
What makes Magic Bomb
A bomb that’s only fun
The idea is simple: you build, your friends defuse. Anyone too slow, or wrong three times, gets the payload – on screen.
13 modules, 5 levels
From the number lock to the infernal machine: every puzzle is generated fresh from a random seed and is guaranteed to be solvable.
Seven payloads
Kiss, butt, slime, confetti, glitter, cake or water. When the bomb goes off, the payload lands on your screen, not in your face.
Real 3D
The bomb sits on the workbench; you turn it with a finger or the mouse and get right up close to every module.
Privacy from the start
No account, no tracking, no cookies, no third-party servers. What you play stays on your device.
Free and honest
No ads, no in-game purchases. If you enjoy it, a little support helps the next module come to life.
Game modes
Six ways to break a sweat
Build for friends or defuse yourself: alone, against the clock or against everyone else on the leaderboard.
Build a bomb
- Share a link
- Personal question
- Cheeky message
Choose case, payload, time and difficulty, fit up to eleven modules and try the bomb yourself. The number lock can ask a question only your friends can answer.
Daily bomb
- Same for everyone
- One attempt
- Top 100 per day
A new bomb every day, the same for everyone, harder towards the weekend. Only your first attempt counts: defusing time plus 15 seconds per strike.
Campaign
- 15 missions
- Up to 3 stars
Fifteen fixed missions that bring in the modules one by one. In the end they all come together. Three stars only without a strike and with half the time left.
Seasonal bombs
- Halloween
- Christmas
- Easter
- Summer
Pumpkin, Christmas bauble, Easter egg and water balloon, each with its own room and its own music. In season there is the bomb of the year with its own leaderboard.
Random bomb
- 5 levels
- Endless supply
A fresh bomb at the press of a button, from the firecracker with three modules to the infernal machine with eight and a pressure valve that keeps demanding attention.
Endless
- Ever harder
- 3 strikes for everything
Bomb after bomb, one level harder every second bomb. Strikes count across the whole run. How far can you get?
The modules
Thirteen puzzles to defuse
Every module has its own mechanics, and every bomb rolls it anew. Learning by heart won’t help, understanding will.
Hot wires
Use the probe to measure which wire carries how much voltage, and cut them in the order the rule demands.
Number lock
A number riddle, or a personal question from the sender that only friends can answer.
Laser mirrors
Turn mirrors and beam splitters until the laser hits every crystal.
Mercury maze
Tilt the module and roll the mercury ball to the goal – but not too hard into the walls.
Light mixer
Turn the controls until your mixed light matches the target lamp exactly.
Circuit
Turn the track pieces until the current from the battery reaches every lamp.
Light sequence
Remember the order in which the domes light up and tap it back. A label may swap the colours.
Oscilloscope
Set frequency, amplitude and shape until your wave lies on the target.
Logic switches
Set the switches so the logic gates light the output lamp.
Safe dial
Turn the dial and listen: the right number clicks deeper. Left, right, left – like a real safe.
Morse radio
A lamp blinks a word. Decode it, tune to the matching frequency and transmit.
Gears
Place gears until the motor winds the fuse back in the right direction.
Pressure valve
Never solved: the pressure keeps rising. Let off steam in time while you puzzle elsewhere.
Made of code
Built, not stored
Cases, circuit boards, modules, cables and explosions are made the moment you play. Even the music is composed while the bomb ticks.

Only the Magic Camelot logo. Wood, metal, circuit boards, wrapping paper and every display are computed on your device.

audio files
No MP3, no samples. Music and sounds come from oscillators and noise, like the sound chips of the home computers.
≈ 2 MB
for the whole game
Physics engine and fonts included. Less than a single phone photo.
Puzzles from chance
Every module builds the solution first and the puzzle around it. Before every release a test checks thousands of bombs for solvability.
Music that sweats with you
Every bomb gets its own song from its seed. The less time is left, the faster and denser it gets.
Every sound synthesised
The click of the safe dial, the hiss of the valve, the snip through the wire and the big bang: all generated live.
Real physics
The fuse dangles, and when the bomb goes off the modules fly across the table.
How to play
Get up close
No download, no sign-up. Open the link, unwrap, defuse.
On your phone
Swipe to turn the bomb, tap to zoom in on a module. In the maze you can tilt the phone. A strike makes it vibrate.
On a PC
Drag to turn the bomb, click to zoom in on a module. The maze takes the mouse or the arrow keys.
Five languages
German, English, French, Spanish and Japanese. The game follows your browser; you can switch in the menu.
How a bomb goes on its way
Build
In the builder pick case, payload, time and modules, add a message and try it once yourself.
Send
Press “Share link” and send the address to your friends by messenger or email.
Watch
Your friends unwrap the parcel and defuse. Whoever makes it sends you a bomb back.
Privacy, honestly explained
We don’t want to know about you
At Magic Camelot privacy isn’t small print, it’s part of the design. This is how Magic Bomb handles it:
The bomb travels in the link
Your bomb sits in the part of the address after the #. Browsers never send that part to a server, not even to ours.
No account, no tracking
No sign-up, no analytics, no cookies, no ad networks. We don’t know who plays.
Progress stays in your browser
Stars, records and settings are remembered only by your browser. The Top 100 only gets what you enter yourself: nickname, time, date.
Feedback only if you send it
The form goes to our own server. Our script stores no IP address; the email address is optional.
Nothing from third-party servers
Fonts, physics engine and everything else come with the game. While you play, Magic Bomb contacts no outside service.
Works offline too
Installed as an app, Magic Bomb runs offline. Only the leaderboard and feedback need a connection then.
To be honest: The game and the website live on our own web space at IONOS. Like every web server, it briefly needs your IP address to send you the page; we don’t analyse it. All the details are in the Magic Bomb privacy policy.

Questions
Good to know
Does Magic Bomb cost anything?
No. The game is free, with no ads and no in-game purchases. If you like, you can support us voluntarily.
How does the bomb get to my friends?
As a link. The whole bomb is in the address you send, for example by messenger. Whoever opens the link gets exactly your bomb – with the same puzzles.
Who is the game for?
For groups of friends aged 16 and up. The humour is cheeky (there is a butt bomb), but none of it is meant to be harmful or offensive.
What happens when the bomb goes off?
Nothing bad: a big bang, the modules fly across the table, and the payload lands on your screen – confetti, slime, glitter, cake, water, kisses or a butt.
Do I need to install anything or sign up?
No. Magic Bomb runs right in the browser. If you like, install it as an app: the game menu has a button for it; on iPhone and iPad use “Share” and “Add to Home Screen”.
Does it run on my phone?
Yes, on current phones and tablets with an up-to-date browser. On weaker devices the game switches off a few effects itself so it stays smooth.
Why does only the first attempt count for the daily bomb?
To keep the leaderboard fair: anyone who already knows the bomb is much faster the second time. You can keep playing, as practice.
What data does Magic Bomb collect?
None. There is no account, no tracking and no cookies. Only what you send yourself reaches us: a Top 100 entry (nickname, time, date) or your feedback – both without an IP address.
Do old FunBomb links still work?
No. Magic Bomb is a complete rebuild; old links show a notice. Just build a new bomb, it takes a minute.
Ready?
The fuse is lit
Open the game in your browser, build your first bomb and send it off. Or try today’s daily bomb straight away.
What you need
