In the classic versions of Minesweeper, it may happen early in the game that you click on a square containing a bomb when we had not yet emerged zone, which we would lost without being able to guess that there was a bomb.

In Ka-Boom, when we are in this situation, the bomb does not explode immediately. It appears in the top screen and you have 2 seconds to turn his match by blowing into the microphone.
