Super Bomberman R 2 is a fun offering that improves upon its predecessor in some obvious ways, and tries to execute on the core formula faithfully and well.

It also tries to expand upon that core offering in many ways. Many of these experiments do not play out, but some do, and its attempts at iteration are admirable regardless of the end result. And even when they don’t quite land, it does enough things just well enough to end up as a fun to play Bomberman game that will find a lot of traction at many parties for many fans.
