Bomberman GB 2 is one of those classic Game Boy gems that somehow feels both simple and chaotic at the same time. You’ve got your usual grid-based mayhem—drop bombs, blow up walls, and try not to get cornered by enemies (or your own explosions). The Japan version adds a few quirks, like different power-ups and some weirdly charming enemy designs.

First few minutes in, you’re just figuring out the timing—when to plant bombs, when to run—but then you hit that sweet spot where you’re chain-exploding half the stage. The controls are tight, and the music’s got that classic Game Boy chiptune vibe. It’s not as flashy as the SNES versions, but there’s something satisfying about the stripped-down chaos.

If you’re into retro games, this one’s a solid pick for quick sessions or just blowing off steam. Bomberman never gets old.
