You will need all your brain cells firing as you frantically try to think of a word containing the letters on the card and pass the infernal ticking Bomb on to the next player. As you hold the Bomb, there may be only seconds to come up with an answer and beat the variable timer!

1. What does the game involve?

Pass the Bomb is a simple concept that involves throwing a ticking bomb around a circle of players - the aim being not to have it blow up in your hands! Primarily, it's a word game: each player draws a card from the top of the deck and has to use theletters, in their order on the card, in a word - something that requires quick thinking! To make it more challenging, players can opt to use thedice provided. On each player's turn they roll the dice to determine whether the letters on the card should appear at the front, the end or in themiddle of the word. Naturally, this is not a game for the faint of heart!

2. What skills can you build/gain from the game?

The fact that Pass the Bomb is a word game confers obvious benefits to players' vocabulary but, mainly, the game teaches you to think on your feet and respond quickly to challenges.

3. What's your favourite tactic or are there any tricks you can teach us?

I find that the best approach it is to picture the words, visualising theletters in their particular order. That way, you can quickly determine whether the letters on your card will match up with the word you've thought of. When in doubt, however, look at the environment around you - there might be some inspiration!

Lots of good info, easy to read
Format: Paperback
Okay, I do need to disclose that I was one of the technical reviewers for this book, and that I'm also a fellow Packt Publishing author. Reviewing the book was a fun project, which I really enjoyed. There's a lot of good information here, and lots of hands-on projects for both x86_64 and Raspberry Pi. The author writes in a clear, concise, and conversational style that makes the material really easy to digest. If you have a good foundation of C programming knowledge and want to get into Linux kernel programming, you'll definitely want to check this book out.

A good book but...(update, formatting fixed)
Format: Kindle
A good book but the code in the Kindle edition is very badly formatted. The downloaded source code seems correct. Update formatting issue seems to have been fixed.

Good for basic x86 64 but avx coverage is horrible.
Format: Paperback
After having read Irvine 7th I had a good knowledge of x32 but soon enough I realized it’s all obsolete so now it’s on to Hyde 64. The hello world program involves interfacing to c++ and assembly/linking with batch commands. Really? I’m using visual studio ide have you heard of build and run? Hyde doesn’t even mention the debugger and without this tool assembly language is impossible. But I was already familiar with this after reading Irvine so I was ok. The following chapters 2 to 9 about 600 pages worth are great so for what I paid the book is 4 stars. Great explanation, lots of complete programs. Now it’s time for parallel processing via Simd and avx and this is chapter 11, over 100 pages of instructions with no examples. It could be useful for reference but actually, no. Amidst all the formats, memory operand and register sizes the actual explanations of the instructions are vague. Well that defeats the purpose of thumbing this chapter as a reference doesn’t it? But where Hyde fails Kusswurm modern x86 begins. If you’ve made it this far sell Hyde, Irvine, and buy Kusswurm. Then you’ll have Jedi powers like me.
