Castle Joe is the first boss of Saturn Bomberman.
Description[]
He is a great living castle, fought in the Amusement World. He is the guardian of the Blue Crystal, which is embedded on him. It takes 6 hits to defeat and yields 5000 points, and will drop the Blue Crystal for Bomberman to collect.
Attacks[]
- Castle Joe alternates between moving aimlessly and chasing the player. It can pass through all obstacles and will harm the player on collision.
- Hands - Castle Joe can use one of his hands to grab a bomb and destroy it.
- Balloons - Alternatively, the doors will open and 6 balloons will float in a curved motion. These balloons lift up, pop and stun the player momentarily when in contact, and if the player is riding a Tirra, it does the same thing with the exception that it makes the ridden Tirra scared.
- Flames - A princess can appear at the entrance and she sprays 6 flames in front of Castle Joe. Flames can detonate bombs and harm players and Tirras in contact.
Trivia[]
- During the boss's intro sequence, the top part of the castle detach from it and fly over and crush the 3 Hige Hige Bandits, before turning into Castle Joe.
