Our take on Bombing Bastards
Players looking for a forgiving arcade campaign may bounce at the boss stages, where the game explicitly raises the difficulty. Local multiplayer groups can also hit a practical wall if they do not have game controllers, since that mode is specified for controller use.
What is Bombing Bastards?
Bombing Bastards is an arcade action game built around maze-based combat.
Its single-player adventure follows Dr. Wallow through five worlds and 30 mazes, where players blast assorted critters, collect items and power-ups, and face five boss stages. The game also includes local battles for one to five players using controllers, plus LAN battles. Controls support keyboard and mouse or a game controller. Dr. Wallow provides more than 10 minutes of voiced commentary, while seven classical compositions receive electronic reinterpretations. The structure combines solo progression through maze and boss stages with competitive multiplayer modes.
