StoryEdit

One day, a village full of Bombermen is attacked by a Lizard Man. As some of the frightened Bombermen try to run away, one of them trips and is about to be trampled by the Lizard Man. Suddenly Hero Bomber appears along with his companions to defeat the Lizard Man. A huge celebration is thrown for their victory.

Some time later, Hero Bomber, who has grown old and become King Bomber, is spending time outside on the castle's balcony when he is overcome by an omen. The evil Dark Bomber appears before him to terrorize Bomber Continent. Sensing the worst, King Bomber assembles his army to challenge this evil.[1]

GameplayEdit

Each player has 4 units as well as a King Bomber. The player can select his or her units before hand and must use their varying abilities to defeat the other team. Each character has different movement and bomb placement stats, and some units have special abilities.

When a bomb is planted, it has a timer on it that begins at 5. After each team ends their turn, all bombs on the field will decrease their timer by one.

In the bottom right corner is the Turn Panel, which displays the number of remaining turns as well as whichever unit or Soft Block may be selected by the cursor. After that number of turns reaches zero, Pressure Bomb mode is initiated, during which two bombs will fall onto random tiles on the screen after every turn. This will continue until the match ends.[2]

There are also items hidden within Soft Blocks that can be destroyed.

There are two ways to declare victory. The first way is for the player to destroy the King Bomber of the opposing team. The second way is for the player to defeat all the units beside the king, acting as a checkmate. In the case of bosses, however, the boss must be defeated in order to clear the stage.

A central hub, Bomber Castle, contains rooms that allow the player to save the game, purchase items, and select Bomber units.

Battle ModeEdit

In the Battle Mode, two players may compete against each other.

The following options may be set:[5]

  • Opponent - "vs COM" or "vs MAN"
  • COM Level - If the opponent is set to the computer, this selects the difficulty of the opponent's AI. It may be set to weak, normal, or strong.
  • Number of Matches to Win - Sets the number of rounds (1 to 5) that must be won by either player in order to finish the game.

Each player may then organize his or her party, comprised of the one to four Bomberman units.
