About This Game



Armed with nothing but a guide book, you and your teammates must collaborate and tackle intricate puzzles to launch rockets in this exhilaratingly stressful co-operative game. Not for the faint of heart, teamwork and communication are your keys to success!

Assemble your team however you like and work together to launch the rockets. The campaign has various missions designed to be played by 2 to 5+ people effectively. Missions cover a wide variety of launch procedures from pre-launch through to lift-off, flight and orbit. There are different puzzles for different missions at different stages of a launch.

The 130+ page guide book can be downloaded for free by your teammates (at rocket.guide) and includes instructions and other cryptic details for all of the puzzles in the game.

This game is hard. Super hard, in fact. The challenge is in knowing what to do and being able to actually perform the operation on time. Communicating with your teammates, learning iteratively, and quick thinking under pressure are all key. We believe in you.

Other features include:

  • Local co-operating gaming (only one person in the group needs to buy in order to play).
  • 20 mission campaign consisting of dynamically generated puzzles and 130+ page guide.
  • Tutorial video to assist you in getting up to speed.
  • Arguably a stress test of friendship.



In 2024 we released “ROCKETS ARE SUPER HARD: RELAUNCH”: a free major update to the game. Here’s a breakdown of what’s included:

  • A complete visual overhaul of the entire game end to end. Launch those rockets in style with a higher, shinier fidelity!
  • We’ve polished and consolidated our core campaign into 20 missions spanning a range of difficulties.
  • A new tutorial video to help get your party started.
  • Epic remastered music. Soundtrack that stress.
  • Brand new sound effects and voiceover.

This game is already shaping up to be really special. This is helped tremendously by devs who are extremely active in the community and receptive to suggestions. They work quickly and respond in the forum. I made a list of typos and suggestions for the manual and it was a fairly long list. They did every single thing on the list in the same day that I posted it. From a gameplay perspective, this obviously is inspired by Keep Talking and Nobody Explodes, but I think this game stands up extremely well on its own. Being in the control room is significantly more fun than being the defuser in KTaNE, and the game itself feels more cohesive. The manual is also over 100 pages even though the game is in early access. The ktane manual is 23 pages. I've played it quite a bit already and I still feel like I haven't even scratched the surface. The single player campaign helps to teach the game, and even puts the manual pages inside the game to make it easier to look things up, but playing multipl...

A very fun game similar to the old Keep Talking and Nobody Explodes. Quite challenging, and you'll definitely have to try each puzzle once or twice before the manual makes much sense - but overall it's very fun and has a promising future!

If you're thinking of playing this game, please take care. The manual needed for this game is absolutely, impossibly, unnecessarily dense. If you've played Keep Talking and are looking for a new game type, this game is nothing like it. The tutorial alone was difficult for myself and two friends. The first mission throws stuff at you that isn't covered in tutorial. This game is HARD. I can see it being fun, but we didn't have proper expectations and don't find this sort of game fun. Very realistic it seems, though.

Amazing that this game does not have any more reviews. It looks a bit rough, and might be a bit hard for some, but absolutely great fun for people who like games such as Keep talking etc.

bugged inputs, and no higher resolution than FHD, a lot of work left on the new version, the earlier was way less bugged than relaunch, still great potential though

The first few hours are very solid. Haven't delved much deeper than that but it seems like a fun, complicated game requiring the effort of several people. The individual puzzles/modules aren't too difficult but you WILL need to manage more than one at once, you might end up needing more than two players eventually and the person controlling the game will likely turn into a person who handles debugging and only takes care of inputs that they're given as it does require some precision. The game is quite stressful and the manual is immensely thick. Very fun if you enjoy micromanaging several things at once and being directed by a friend or two who is sitting on an opened PDF in their browser.

I was really looking forward to this one because I loved Keep Talking and Nobody Explodes. After several failed attempts to launch the rocket, me and my friend finally figured out how to do it. We started making progress, and then the rocket exploded. The error message read something to the effect of "Input given: 5. Input should have been: 5". That's when we gave up. EDIT: I feel like I should give more constructive feedback if the devs happen to be reading reviews. It wasn't just that a bug caused us to fail even when we did everything right. It was that getting to that point was more often frustrating than fun. It all comes down to the instruction manual that the "helpers" are reading. It's dense, vague, and gives almost no indication as to what diagrams correspond to on-screen systems. Some sections are even just poorly formatted - for example, the page that tells you what buttons to press depending on the error code readout doesn't list all the possible error codes for a cor...

The manual is wayyyyy too long. The rocket wanted input 5, and I input 5. Still exploded.

This game is good, if you are willing to sit through it's manual. I've played my fair-share of modded Keep Talking and Nobody Explodes and it's arguably easier than this. The manual could absolutely be rewritten for clarity and to make it much easier to understand. If you play KTaNE vanilla and are looking for something like it, this isn't it. However, if you want extra complexity, This might be worth grabbing.

Great game! A bit more stressful than KTANE. Not everything works perfectly, but totally playable and very enjoyable. Maybe a bit much for single-player, but with two or three friends you can make a true mission control environment. You just need other devices for reading the manual... I hope that it gets some updates and mods in the future. Recommended!
