Bomberman (DS)

This is really a nostalgic game and for it to be brought on the DS is fantastic! I am disappointed that it doesnt make full use of the stylus and touch screen but the mic is great for defusing bombs in special modes. It has single player and multiplayer modes, but no wifi. the principle is that you are in a maze like grid and you have to place bombs to bomb away the obstacles/boxes which may contain powerups, pick them up be stronger, get bigger flames, walk faster, more bombs etc. The aim is to bomb all other monsters in story mode, in multiplayer or arcade it is to bomb other players. The single player mode is great but is easy to complete, and ...  Read the complete review

Bomberman is a game that isn't the same price range as the other top games, it is cheaper. The gameplay hasn't changed much since the very first Bomberman game - you'll still find those familiar items and characters So, when you see the single player, you could be disappointed at the boring repetitiveness of your character walking around a rectangle grid collecting powerups and dropping bombs and hiding behind solid blocks. The single player isn't great. There is a sort of storyline with some bosses, but it wasn't too good. The save system can be frustrating as you can only save after every section with a boss. You can quick save after ...  Read the complete review
