Bomberman has seen its up and downs over the years, but the overall formula is still a popular one with a lot of players. Brawl seeks to capitalize on a lot of the same gameplay elements while adding a horror aesthetic. All in all, it is a competently made game, but not one that does enough to make it a more compelling play than the games that clearly inspired it.
If you're interested in a horror Bomber-man with awful movement and uninspired arenas then this might be for you but if you are looking to scratch the bomber-man itch, I'd say go for the switch's Super Bomber-man R.
WTMG's Leo Faria: "If you remove the unnecessarily edgy and (im)mature setting, there's very little that differs Brawl from any other Bomberman game released over the last decades."
What's more fun than playing games with a bunch of psychos in an emporium? Choose from a cast of demented personalities and have a literal blast with the deadly explosions from your enemies' arsenal of bombs.
