Dynamite Dare Game
Diffuse or lose! In this whacky Wild West game players try to diffuse the dynamite to get the gold. Put red foam dynamite in the back of the safe, wind up the timer and start the game. With the clock ticking, you have to quickly decide what detonator plugs diffuse the dynamite by pushing the plugs as fast as possible. But use the wrong one or take too long and the dynamite explodes.
