![]() ![]() ![]() The boss fights all looked good graphically and the battles themselves were some of the best parts of the story mode. Upon defeating those bosses, you will then fight a bigger and more powerful version of these Bombers, which is certainly a repetitive – but effective – way to scale up the difficulty levels. Indeed, these boss fights can be tough at times, even on the easy difficulty level. Each of the five Dastardly Bombers has a special bomb to contend with, so there’s a learning process in order to be able to take them on. The first fight will be you against one of the five Dastardly Bombers, one-on-one. The levels have a decent variety to them, and as an added bonus you can also play the full story mode with drop-in two player couch co-opĪfter eight levels on one stage, you will face two bosses. Each world adds something to the basic game, such as one world had ice while others have jump spots and moving platforms. Way to almost arrive at diversity only to take a giant leap backwards, Konami. Oddly enough, and really quite terribly, even though there are now two Bombergirls in the game, the references towards the characters within the game is still “Bombermen” and even “Bomber bros”. ![]() You can also play as any of the eight Bombermen – no, sorry, now it’s Bomberpeople – each with his or her own personality. Defeating all the enemies is not the only objective in this game there are a few levels that have you hitting switches, or others that require you to collect keys and so on and that adds a little verity to the levels. There are 50 story mode levels spanning across five worlds. The story may have been geared for children but the game itself is fun for everyone. I wasn’t expecting much from the story – this series isn’t known for that – but it was decent enough in looking and feeling like a Saturday morning cartoon. I jumped right into the game’s story mode. Thankfully this one takes serious steps in redeeming the entire franchise. Years after first playing Bomberman I find myself buying a Nintendo Switch, and with it the 33rd game in the series, Super Bomberman R. I always liked Bomberman games, though the series has flagged a bit in recent years, with ill-conceived attempts at making 3D takes on the game, as well as a very poor attempt to cyberpunk the series in Bomberman Act Zero, and then some very forgettable minor releases clearly made just to keep the series alive. It’s been a good six years since the last Bomberman game was released, but it’s good that the series, which kicked off way back in 1983, is still kicking around. ![]()
