Grumpus, known as Hibadon in Japan, is the sixth boss in Bomberman '93. He is a yeti riding on a green UFO. He appears on Icicle Planet.

Strategy[]

Grumpus will fly with his UFO diagonally throughout the stage, passing freely over any obstacles. He will fly in 5 seconds, and after he stops, he starts spinning his UFO and moves in to the last direction on Bomberman at where he's stopped. Grumpus's UFO has a weak spot vulnerable to bomb blasts: the rotary red panel on his UFO. The player must always hit the red panel towards the view of the bomb, either in horizontal or vertical, since the explosion range will not hit the panel with all "arms".

After 3 seconds, Grumpus will jump and pound the ground, and if he has pounded the ground, he will detonate any bombs. After 3 hits, Grumpus will spawn 4 snowmen which follow Bomberman at close-range. The snowmen will harm Bomberman on collision and each takes 2 hits to destroy, but they all re-spawn afterwards.

Grumpus takes 6 hits to defeat and yields a score of 50000 points. Upon defeat, the player will gain the sixth chip.

Trivia[]

In the comedic scene after defeating the boss, the scene varies depending on the language port. In the Japanese version, Grumpus appears asleep at a kotatsu, a Japanese heated table with a blanket down, and down the blanket, Bomberman is asleep while reading a comic book. While in the American version, Bomberman is seen sleeping on Grumpus's lap to stay cozy.
