Missed it? Bomberman returns in the mobile form for fans of the old arcade games to rejoice at the old sounds and similar graphics to that of the oldest game concepts around.

Hudson Soft and Living Mobile worked together as to bring Bomberman back to mobile phones and pack all the classic action on the small screens of these devices. The graphics is just as poor as it has always been and make this game look as if more suitable for a 80s arcade. You can see every single pixel and that's as old fashioned as it gets in mobile gaming, which might be seen even as an advantage by some players.

Bomberman stars in a double pack comprising Bomberman Classic and Bomberman Supreme. The more evolved technology comes under the shape of a multiplayer mode, which uses Bluetooth connectivity. The difference between the two game versions comes with the graphics, which are more evolved in the Supreme game.

Bomberman Supreme offers a modern version of the game, with great graphics and high-end animations, brand new enemies as well as old guys and new power-ups. These are only some of the upgrades coming from the new game. Bomberman Classic, on the other hand, brings just the same fun as the original video game star from the 80s.

There are 50 levels of gameplay, full of old and new power-ups, as well as with five new Bosses to be bombed. Another interesting feature is that Bomberman now contains a special WAP feature that allows the player to upload and publish his high scores in daily, weekly, monthly and all-time high score rankings. This makes it possible to compare the personal scores with other users across Europe. Bomberman is now available for download and hours of classic mobile fun.
