The gameplay consists of walking through maze-like areas filled with monsters with a goal of opening the gate leading to the next area. Playing as a bomberman, the player can lay bombs to destroy all of the monsters, which will subsequently open the gate. Destroying blocks in the maze may uncover useful items including remote control bombs, accelerators, hearts, and increased firing range. Neo Bomberman includes Bosses that appear after each zone. Each zone is harder than the last, some featuring new traps and level obstacles such as conveyor belts.

Played during 2D Con 2022, a trip I went on with Ethan and some of his friends. Did not make it very far at all, just wanted to see what it was like.
The bomberman formula can get so repetitive. I haven't played a bomberman game in months, and I still find it boring, every game is literally the same.
You must know this was of my first gaming experiences because of the arcade machine that was in one of my village's bars.
I never finished the normal mode... until todady. It was hard, not only its an arcade and it must take your money but you have your greatest enemy: you. Thats a clever manner to play: you can be so powerful by the upgrades but you can hurt yourself.
I really love this game but I can put it any higher either. The music is great.

Very ambitious for a 2D Bomberman, you should rerelease this Konami, you should do anything Konami, you should
MY FAVORITE BOMBERMAN EVER!
it's so much fun playing with these characters's unique powers!

Man, it's 1997 and they are still making Bomberman for the Arcade? As if there weren't already-um... 13 Bomberman games on home consoles by 1997, at least this one is ok compared to the previous arcade games.
Alright, I'll point out the elephant in the room, it's a damn Arcade Bomberman game and it's easier than the home console games... I'm shocked...
Compared to Bomberman Arcade and Bomberman World Arcade this game is a breeze to complete! It only has 5 worlds with 7 stages each and... and... the easiest boss fights in the whole franchise?! I was not expecting that out of this game but my god it is quite a pleasant surprise, the bosses being piss easy really made me happy though it's still just a short and average Bomberman game that will eat all of your quarters just to play some multiplayer matches, so that's why I'm wondering why are they still making a Bomberman game that is very similar to its home console counterpart with no real gimmick to call it's own, it's a pretty odd release if you ask me.
If there's any Arcade Bomberman game you should play it would be that one but even then I'd still recommend something like Super Bomberman 4 or Saturn Bomberman if you just want to play Bomberman, like just buy a damn Super Nintendo because I know you won't buy a Sega Saturn it's 1997 nobody else did.
This game does have Slime Bomberman though which is definitely something that Saturn Bomberman can't say they have.
