BOMBANANA Slider CHAOS Guide

This is the CHAOS Slider, not the standard Color Slider puzzle. Use this guide to identify the interruption, keep its instructions separate from your normal puzzle solver, and manage it during the run.

Is this the Slider you mean?

Two modules are called a slider. Only one of them is a standard puzzle.

Managed during the run

Keep the interruption under control without losing track of the main puzzle.

What should I do when Slider appears?

  1. 01

    Confirm the module

    Make sure you are looking at the CHAOS Slider shown above, not the standard Color Slider puzzle.

  2. 02

    Keep it separate from your Standard puzzle

    Slider is a CHAOS interruption. It is not another Easy, Medium, or Hard puzzle slot.

  3. 03

    Follow the current Slider state

    Watch what the Slider is doing during this run and manage it from there, rather than waiting for one fixed answer.

Manage Slider During the Run

Slider is a management job rather than a lookup. This page keeps the interruption and its instructions separate from the standard puzzle tools, so the team can handle both at once.

Status

Slider needs attention during the run

Right now

What it does to the run
Slider interrupts the bomb while the rest of the run is still being worked on.
What your team has to do
Keep the interruption under control without losing track of the main puzzle.

This is a management guide, not a solver: there is no module state to enter and no answer to read.

Slider vs. Color Slider

They are not two versions of the same module. One is a standard puzzle with a solver; the other is a CHAOS module handled during the run.

Where Slider fits into the bomb

Slider belongs to the CHAOS system rather than the 11 standard puzzle modules. A Campaign setup can include standard puzzles and CHAOS at the same time, which is why Slider may interrupt a run while your team is still working on modules such as Piano, Maze, or Switch.

Standard task

Both can matter at the same time.

Slider in the Campaign

Every level below lists Slider in its CHAOS setup. The list comes from the same 30 level rows the Campaign pages read, so it cannot drift from them.

Keep the Slider callout separate

Call out that the CHAOS Slider needs attention without mixing it into the standard puzzle information your team is already sharing.

Say "CHAOS Slider," not just "Slider."

Good callout

"CHAOS Slider."

Not

"Slider."

Standard puzzle

"Color Slider."

Common Slider mistakes

  • Opening the Color Slider solver

    Check the module image first. CHAOS Slider and Color Slider are separate modules, and the solver only answers the standard one.

  • Treating Slider as a Standard puzzle

    CHAOS is managed separately from the Easy, Medium, and Hard puzzle slots, so there is nothing to enter into a solver.

  • Calling out only "Slider"

    Say "CHAOS Slider" so a teammate cannot confuse it with the standard Color Slider.

  • Looking for one permanent answer

    CHAOS is a run-management problem rather than a standard lookup puzzle. Work from the current state instead of expecting one fixed answer.

Back to the bomb

Once the current Slider interruption is under control, return to the standard module your team was already solving.
