In "Hide and go boom," players navigate through a first-person perspective, racing against time to outsmart opponents in quick, addictive matches. Ideal for both solo play and multiplayer sessions with friends, this early access title offers endless entertainment with its classic Bomberman gameplay.
About this game
Hide and go boom is a modern take on that classic game. With more than one twist.
Play with your friends either on split screen or over the internet.
Run around in a maze, drop bombs to destroy the boxes and collect the powerups.
Avoid being killed by your enemies or your own stupidity. Playing in insanity mode, the latter is harder than the former.
Playing much like the original, Hide and go Boom adds its own twists to the game.
Instead of the birds eye view, you now enjoy a first person view of the action.
