Not to be confused with Bomberman 2.

Bomberman II (written as Bomber Man II in the Japanese version) is an action game for the NES. This game was retitled Dynablaster in Europe. The game was included as part of Hudson Best Collection Vol. 1: Bomberman Collection for Game Boy Advance.

Story[]

While White Bomberman was walking through the city one day, he noticed Black Bomberman go into a bank. Black Bomberman comes out and leaves a bag of money beside White Bomberman. Before the police show up, Black Bomberman runs away and leaves White Bomberman to take the blame. White Bomberman must escape from prison and catch Black Bomberman to prove his innocence.

Gameplay[]

The gameplay has the same formula as the TurboGrafx-16 Bomberman with the removal of vertical scrolling stages, boss monsters, and four standard enemies (Onil, Minvo, Doria and Peggi); however, the returning enemies were given unique characteristics rather than being copies of Barom, and the power-up appearances, enemy arrangement, and stage order are different.

The goal of every stage is to defeat all the enemies, and then find the Exit, which is hidden beneath a random Soft Block. Bomberman begins with only one bomb and a one-tile blast radius.

Each stage is played under a time limit. The amount of time depends of the areas. If the timer expire, Bomberman is killed and the stage restarts. Like in the NES version of Bomberman, There is one power-up item per stage, and new enemies are introduced as you progress, each with different patterns. Stages come in two different sizes; single screen or scrolling screen, which span two screens. If you bomb an item, a single Pass is generated (and the item is destroyed). Bombing an Exit will generate 4 enemies of the same type - either Pontan, Pomori, Pass or Terupyo.

In the sixth stage of every area it has a Bonus item. Collecting it and completing the level will take you to a Bonus Stage, wherein the goal is to destroy as many Balloms as possible within the time limit. Like in the previous game, Bomberman is invincible and enemies will continuously spawn, so the "Chain Bomb" trick can be used there. Running Bombermen will also appear there - collecting them will earn you an extra life. There are 6 Areas with 8 stages in each, for a total of 48 levels. After eight stages, the player will see a brief scene before going to the next area.

Trivia[]

  • The fourth page of the Japanese manual calls White Bomberman an ambitious young man who worked in the mines. No other game in the series refers to him as a miner.
  • This is the only game in the series with a multiplayer maximum of three players (Red as Player 2 and an additional Blue through the use of a peripheral). Black Bomberman himself is non-playable, despite having a role in the game's story.
