Now that Normal Game is complete, it's time for the Battle Game!
Now it's time for the battle mode.
In the battle mode, you can play with up to four players. If you don't have the Super NES Multi-Tap, you can set the third and fourth players to computer controller or turn them off entirely. You also have ten different difficulty settings for the computer players, assuming there are any in the match.
Each round lasts two minutes. When time gets low, blocks will start surrounding the battlefield from the outside in. You want to avoid having their blocks land on you, as they will kill you. Eventually, they'll stop dropping down, and you'll have a smaller playfield that increases the odds of somebody blowing somebody else up. If there is more than one Bomberman standing when the two minutes are up, no winner is declared and another round begins.
After that, you can see how many victories it takes to win a match, and you also have a choice between twelve different zones to play in. Some of the zones have their own special hazards, such as conveyor belts, a limited field of visions, bombs with short fuses that blow up quickly, among others.
Grab power-ups, avoid the curse icons, run into other Bombermen if you need to after running into the curse icons to curse them, and have fun! While future games would beat this game in terms of presentation and options (looking at you, Saturn Bomberman), this was the first one to allow more than two players to blow each other. See you next Let's Play!
