Timer, mistake and lobby rules

Give your team more time to read a module, change mistake pressure or start a mission with fewer players. Each rule has its own toggle.

Pause the bomb timer

Bytonian Mods keeps the bomb timer paused while the player works through the puzzles.

Time and mistakes change different things

Freeze the bomb timer holds its current time while enabled. Turn it off to let the countdown continue. Infinite mistakes replenishes the bomb's mistake allowance; it does not pause the timer.

Start a smaller lobby

As host, enable Start with fewer than three players, then use the lobby's Start button. This removes the player-count requirement; some modules can still require a full team.

For the app connection steps, use the setup section on the game overview.
