Now I know what you're thinking, "Jules you incredibly handsome IDIOT, what words are coming out of your mumbly-bumbly face right now? Keep Talking And Nobody Explodes is a multiplayer game at heart so how can you say it's harder with Co-op when it's solely co-op?"

Well my friend, as per usual, the evil finger temple of doom has made its way into these lists, because while it's technically true that Keep Talking And Nobody Explodes is a multiplayer game, that's not to say it's the only way to play it. Thanks to the ingenious mind of developer Devan Hurst there now exists a bot that allows players to tackle the game solo, with the bot reading audio queues and responding it its own voice back to desperate bomb defuser.

Arguably this makes for a much, much easier play session than with friends as the bot immediately responds and does so with impeccable clarity. This means you can rattle through questions and get a hold of the situation far quicker than the panicked scrabbling and stumbling real-life players fall prey to.

Now I know that it's not as fun per se to play with a bot programmed to assist you, but the fact it exists and works this bloody well sure is a marvel. As is the money you'll save on anger management courses which this game normally feels sponsored by.
