Gameplay
When all enemies are destroyed the player automatically goes to the next stage. Items are lost after each stage, reducing the inventory to one bomb, and the default blast radius and walking speed. There are six worlds with six levels in each; after every fifth level there is a Bonus Stage, wherein soft blocks contain many points items and power ups.
Story
King Bomber, the antagonist from Bomberman (arcade), has returned and has taken over the UN building with his armies of evil robots. The 4 Bomberman Bros. must now defeat him.
