What is Bomberman?

Bomberman is an arcade game with local multiplayer and single-player game modes. The game levels are comprised of open spaces to walk around a corner, safe from explosions. Also, there are destroyable blocks and persistent blocks. Each player can place bombs. Once a block is destroyed, a powerup may sometimes be found where the destroyable block once was. Powerups give the player bigger explosions and faster movement. These skills make finishing off the last opponents easier.
