Bomberman was one of the most fun and unusual games I played as a child. Just like in the Tank game, it aimed to offer maximum fun with its structure based on simple dynamics and it was really successful in this. The game, which lost its simplicity over time, was naturally never as popular as it was in those first moments, but it managed to keep that nostalgia alive with its successful plays from time to time. Here we can say that the newly released Super Bomberman R Online is holding on to that nostalgia, but at the same time feeding its gameplay with new dynamics.
Super Bomberman R originally appeared in 2017. We can say that this renewed version is more connected to the roots of the game. Moreover, with the phrase "Online" added to its name, it took on a kind of Battle Royale and entered a path where we tried to survive among these explosions.
As you know, the theme of the Bomberman series is that your character drops the bomb, explodes the bricks and equalizes his opponents with the Power-Ups he receives. Here, Super Bomberman R Online has placed all these dynamics I have mentioned in the center of the game. For this reason, while playing, you both catch that nostalgic atmosphere and gradually start to enjoy the game more.
On the battle royale side of the game, a system similar to the one we saw in Tetris 99, Super Mario Bros 35 and Pac-Man 99 awaits us. In all these games, a Battle Royale system was created by taking into account the dynamics. Here's the same situation used for Super Bomberman R Online. You are fighting against 64 players in the game, but actually players are fighting against a few people in random arenas. More precisely, they primarily fight each other in small groups. As the rounds progress, the number of players decreases and you try to reach the leader's seat.
Of course, even if you start with your classic laughs in the game, the game starts to get a little more complicated with the power-ups you get. Because in the first place, only a few blocks are blown up, then much more powerful bombs start to explode and strategy and dynamics of acting quickly become more important.
In addition, when you equalize an opponent, the buffs he receives are scattered around, and I can say that there is a fight situation in this short moment. But the general structure of the game is based on taking the right position and having a lot of luck. When different arenas are added to the work, it is a little more distant from that classic line. The game, which starts out simple, becomes more and more complex. This can cause distraction as well as tiring you out. You can suddenly find yourself under the influence of a bomb. Especially if you get caught in the mess at the end, the situation is of course even sadder.
Super Bomberman R Online is a completely free-to-play game on all platforms. You can still unlock different and iconic characters by spending money on special packages. Yes, there is a character system in the game and each character has its own characteristics. Some move faster, while others can drop more powerful bombs at the start. When we look at the special character packs, we see that known characters from different series such as Naked Snake, Raiden, Lance, Alucard and Old Snake are included.
