Welcome back, haters and reviewers. The question bank is now fixed and you shouldn't be getting any undefined questions. Medals should also be working, but a fix is coming in the next couple days that should get them to 100%. The game's not easier, but it should work better. Again, please accept my sincere apologies.

Welcome to the game where knowledge is a bastard and Lady Luck's his bitch. Drop the Bomb is the newest Pacdude Game, having been over 6 months in the making. Test your luck and knowledge in this intense trivia game set in an industrial warehouse. You'll have to be smart and lucky to gain not only precious Newgrounds medals but also a chance to sit atop the Leaderboards. If you have Facebook, you can even challenge your friends to play.

Wow. I didn't realize making such a tough game would cause such controversy! I'm very proud of this game, as it's quite challenging and those who get on the top scoreboard generally earned it. We didn't set out to make the game tough, it just sort of happened. Now I'm glad it did, though. The original version of DtB was a "click stuff, win at random" sort of game, and if you like that sort of thing, perhaps Cory will re-post it at some point. I hope those of you who are frustrated will stick with it, and maybe learn something. I also hope that those of you who actually have the knowledge to be successful at this game feel well-rewarded. Remember, some people in 1984 thought Jeopardy! was too difficult to be successful, and it's still on 25 years later. Cory was right... Knowledge really is a bastard sometimes.

it gud i guess

I did it! I actually won the Bonus Plant by using all of my spins, and I walked away with $12,000.

Wow, "Marathon Grill" is a doozy of a medal. To get it, you need to get 25 questions in a row right, but if you earn 5000, the game ends, which means you need to get lucky with low cash values. Out of interest, I simulated this game with a Markov Chain, and the odds of having a game with 25 questions or more is 0.6326%, about 1 in 158; and that's presuming you get all your questions right!

To better the odds, reset the game if the first or second cash value is above 200, that increases your odds to 3.739%, or about 1 in 27.

This was a really fun and really dangerous quiz game I have ever played. I compete in the bonus plant and won $12,350 and I add the $5,200 I won in the main game, and it gives me a grand total of $17,550. I hope I can play it again sometime soon.

It's alright, just wish there were more achievements.
