About Hide and go boom

✦ AI summary

Hide and go Boom brings the classic Bomberman formula into first-person perspective, letting you drop bombs to destroy crates and outsmart opponents in a junkyard maze across split-screen or online multiplayer. The fresh FPS viewpoint transforms the strategic bomb-placement gameplay with new angles of attack and verticality, while a variety of powerups and an intense Insanity mode keep the chaos unpredictable.

Back in 1983 Hudson Soft and Konami released Bomberman (in Europe known as Dynablaster).

Hide and go boom is a modern take on that classic game. With more than one twist.

Play with your friends either on split screen or over the internet.

Run around in a maze, drop bombs to destroy the boxes and collect the powerups.
Avoid being killed by your enemies or your own stupidity. Playing in insanity mode, the latter is harder than the former.

Playing much like the original, Hide and go Boom adds its own twists to the game.
Instead of the birds eye view, you now enjoy a first person view of the action.

Very bad game with no players to even try it.

Игра "Hide and go boom" – это взрывной коктейль из ностальгии по старым добрым пряткам и современного экшена. Простая концепция, где нужно прятаться или искать, превращается в напряженное противостояние благодаря динамичному геймплею и огромному количеству кастомизации. Выбор разнообразных персонажей, каждый со своими уникальными способностями, добавляет тактический элемент. Понравилась возможность подстраивать правила под себя, создавая хаотичные и веселые матчи с друзьями. Графика хоть и не поражает воображение, но вполне приятная и не отвлекает от геймплея. Звуковое сопровождение отлично подчеркивает атмосферу, особенно взрывные звуки, которые заставляют вздрагивать даже опытных игроков. Есть небольшие нарекания к балансу некоторых способностей, но разработчики активно работают над обновлениями и прислушиваются к мнению игроков. В целом, "Hide and go boom" это отличный выбор для компании друзей, желающих весело провести время и поностальгировать о детстве. Рекомендую попробовать!

This is a pretty great bomberman game. The mode where you're on top of a tower of boxes is really fun, looking forward to playing this again with my friends
