Bomberman 64 (ボンバーマン64, Bonbāman Rokujūyon) is a Japanese Nintendo 64 game of the Bomberman franchise.[1]

Gameplay

It is based more on the SNES Bomberman titles, and is fully 2D without any 3D graphics.[2] It includes "Panic Bomber" mode from the SNES Bomberman games.[3] It also includes a mini-game called "Same Game" which is a tile matching 2D puzzle game focused on eliminating blocks.[3]

"Bomberman Mode" features standard Bomberman gameplay, but also features multiple exits per room, and thus branching paths.[4] Multiplayer also features "Tandem Mode", where two players work together.[4] Up to four players can play multi-player mode.[5]

Release

The game was released on December 20, 2001.[1] It was the final game released for the Nintendo 64 in Japan.

It is often confused with the 1997 game Bomberman 64, which was known as Baku Bomberman.[2]
