DefuseOrder launched on Steam on August 24 as a first-person bomb-disposal challenge with a 30-minute limit. Red bombs require a left click, blue bombs require a right click and yellow bombs must be left alone. One wrong action ends the mission immediately.

DefuseOrder: confirmed details

The room switches between a white Safe Mode and a purple Danger Mode marked by an alarm. Moving or interacting during the dangerous phase causes a failure. Three levels introduce the bomb colors in sequence, while Easy, Normal, Hard and Nightmare adjust bomb totals and shorten the safe intervals.

What changes for players

The rules are intentionally small enough to memorize, so pressure comes from applying them while the room changes state. A blue bomb is not difficult by itself; recognizing it, stopping movement and waiting through purple lighting is the actual test. Higher settings tighten that conflict between speed and restraint.

Release and platform context

DefuseOrder is a Windows single-player release from developer Chataro and publisher ChataroTaka. Keyboard movement and mouse actions are central to play. The official description confirms the 30-minute objective and four settings but does not advertise multiplayer, procedural campaigns or accessibility options beyond the listed controls.
