Incommunication Guide: The three roles and what each one can do
About
OverviewIncommunication is a two-player bomb-defusal puzzle where your team is split into three roles — the Mute, the Deaf, and the Blind — each holding only part of the information needed to win. Normal communication is deliberately broken, so you have to find creative ways around it.

[2 PLAYER] Incommunication
The three roles and what each one can do
Table
Every game splits the two players across three roles. The Mute understands the solution but cannot speak. The Deaf can hear nothing from the world around them but can read every gesture the Mute makes. The Blind cannot see the bomb panel at all, yet they are the only one whose hands can actually defuse it.
| Mute | knows what to do, cannot speak it |
| Deaf | cannot hear, but reads the Mute's gestures |
| Blind | cannot see the panel, but is the only one who can operate it |

Setting up communication before the round starts
TipsBecause the game deliberately limits how you communicate, deciding on your method beforehand matters. Roblox voice chat lets you give real-time instructions, and Roblox text chat works well if your environment makes voice difficult. Agree on gesture signals too, since the Mute will rely on them heavily.
- Use Roblox voice chat for real-time instructions whenever possible.
- Switch to Roblox text chat if voice is not available.
- Agree on basic gestures before each session
clear signals for numbers, colors, and yes or no cut down on mistakes.
Troubleshooting a stalled defusal
Warn
If the bomb is not getting defused and time is ticking, stop and diagnose before pushing forward. The most common culprits are a gesture that was read differently than intended and a player acting outside their role.

Common questions
FAQCan I play this alone?
No — Incommunication is built entirely around two-player cooperation. You need a partner to fill the roles, since no single player can access all the information required to defuse the bomb.
What should we do if voice chat is not an option?
Roblox text chat is a fallback option. Agreeing on gesture signals before you start also helps.
Why does the game recommend Roblox chat over external apps?
The game page specifically suggests using Roblox voice chat or text chat rather than outside applications.
Can I earn all badges without spending Robux?
The Fashion Icon badge requires buying every skin from the shop.
