FUSE is a tabletop horror game roguelike where you pass an IED explosive back and forth with the Handler, a serial killer wearing a hulking bomb disposal suit. With every pass the fuse shortens, until it eventually explodes on whoever holds it last. Use items to strategically rig the bomb, play against a smart, ever adapting AI, and hope you can survive long enough to find a way to escape. After every three rounds the Handler goes to rest, giving you the option to investigate the small room around you, maybe you will find something of use around here..

FUSE contains a rich, emotional story, uncovered through newspaper articles, dialogue, and exploration. In the beginning, you know that you have been sedated and kidnapped by a deranged serial killer who refers to themselves as the Handler, and forces you to play this deadly game with them. Will you play fair and to the end, or will you try to find another way out of this place? Replay FUSE multiple times to get alternate endings; each of them is unique and impactful.

• FUSE contains heavy themes such as suicide, substance abuse, and graphic descriptions/images of violence. Play at your own risk.

• Photosensitivity warning: FUSE contains very few, but some, flashing lights that could trigger seizures.

FUSE takes in separation from the following Games:

Resident Evil Biohazard: 21, Card game DLC
