Pyramid Head isn't bad either, he's actually quite BS since you can activate his ability on top of people and instakill them. Nerf Green, too OP! Jokes aside, being able to punch, throw and kick bombs from the start is pretty good and the Lv1 Flame isn't so bad either since you can use your own bombs defensively. The underlying game here while mostly unchanged from 1985 is still great fun with friends, and the flexibility of setting up a match with friends both in person and online is fantastic.My only two wins are with Green so. Really it’s the price that makes Super Bomberman R hard to recommend. Overall though, the single player campaign feels like an obligatory add-on more than an essential part of the game. A great feature is the ability for a second player to jump into the story mode at any moment, tedium with a friend is at least a little more fun than tedium alone. These end-world bosses are the highlight of single player, with each requiring a bit of experimentation and eventual strategy to weaken and defeat. First, against a Dastardly Bomber who seems to have a superhuman ability to avoid your bombs, and secondly against a more interesting giant robot boss. The last two stages of each worlds are boss stages. Most level objectives are simply ‘destroy all the enemies’, but occasionally the objective will change to something else like flipping switches on the ground or escort missions. Each world opens and closes with a nicely animated cut-scene leading to the five worlds of ten levels, each with a particular objective to complete before the exit will open. There is a single-player Story mode here too for lonesome bombing, but it’s not particularly engaging. It’s a shame since online multiplayer with friends can be a blast if accompanied with voice chat, but the experience is marred by the ever-present lag, at least in my experience. Most matches exhibited laggy inputs and more often than not I would have to press the button to lay a bomb more than once for it to register. Once in a match, the experience is fairly average, in my experience at least. Not a major issue, but it would be nice if there was some way for the host to delay the game starting. One minor annoyance in this process is that the room always has a countdown going to the game starting, and if you have a second player in the room a game will start even if you’re waiting for other players to appear. One person sets up a room, and everyone else can choose the Join Friends option and they will soon appear in that open room. Setting up an online match with friends is simple. Free online play is where you can play a more relaxed game without worry for your online ranking, and also where you can bring your friends along. Right now games aren’t hard to find, but as always it remains to be seen whether this will continue in the future. League games are present which allow you to compete for Battle Points and climb the Bomberman ranks. Online multiplayer is present too and Super Bomberman R is one of the only games to support this at launch. Fortunes can change in fractions of a second and that moment of realisation is sure to set off a cacophony of joyous screams. Super Bomberman R is fantastic fun with a group of friends. Konami have done a great job allowing so many different ways for friends to join in. The ease of setting up multiplayer matches with 8 people whether they have Joy-Cons, Pro Controllers or even their own systems is fantastic. Switch might be the best platform yet for Bomberman. Throw yourself and up to 7 other players onto a stage and have at it until one bomber emerges victorious. Sometimes breaking walls will uncover power up icons which give you special properties like larger explosions or the ability to kick bombs across a stage. You walk around on a grid-style map, dropping timed bombs which can break brittle walls or destroy your opponents.
