This is the dihydrogen monoxide joke of video games.

Who knew Bomberman was a cowboy named Eric before becoming a spaceman?

This game is pretty much just a lesser version of NES Bomberman, the idea is the exact same the only difference is that this one is way rougher to play. The main issue comes from the fact that you only move half a block at a time unlike how most Bomberman do it, normally one step = one block but here it's one step = half a block making it hell to get through the stages and avoiding enemies, especially with how fast they are, they cut you no slack and it's pretty much impossible to outrun them unless they go another direction and it feels more like Pacman than Bomberman.
The second main issue comes from the fact that the enemies WALK THROUGH THE BOMBS! You can't trap them! It means this game is 100% luck whether they'll walk through the explosion or not.

Though this game does fix one issue I had with Bomberman on the NES and it's the fact that in the NES version, the stages are way too big making it a chore to go through them, here the stages are just size of your screen making them pretty cozy and not too overwhelming.

There's no debate whether you should play the original version of the NES version, go for the NES if you want to avoid the headache, or just play any other competent Bomberman game that doesn't have walkthrough bombs.

Decidi não dar uma nota anacrônica a este jogo. Para um jogo dos anos 80 até que dá para se divertir em momentos de tédio e passar o tempo, claro que hoje é praticamente injogável mas isso não importa para o contexto.

Os inimigos passarem pelas bombas não chega a ser terrível mas muda completamente a forma de jogar se comparado com Bomberman.
