Bombfest

Graphics are weak. My kids ages 10 and 12 got board pretty quick

This is a great game for a party setting! While it may not have the staying power if it's just you, when you grab 3 more people to play, it's a great experience

This game is super fun to play with friends. It's also fun to play by yourself. AIs are suprisingly competitive. You play as these cute little wooden toy figures which gives the game a unique charm. You play on multiple different stages every round trying to earn points by blowing players off the stage with all kinds of bombs, trying to earn the most points to win. It can get very chaotic and unpredictable. So much is going on that you don't know what's happening or who will win. You can customise the game on the menu like changing the number of each type of bomb you want, or how many rounds and how long they are. There's even fun little modes like having a big head or low gravity which make it more fun to play. The best part I think is that as you play, you unlock new characters, bombs, masks, stages and modes which keep you playing longer. I will say that the game is low on content right now, making gameplay a little short. But after a few updates, that shouldn't be a problem.

I played this some time ago but noticed how little it's been reviewed. Bombfest is fun in both MP (party mode) and SP. It's far from a knock-off (as another reviewer said) and I found it quite unique and fun. Some achievements are harder than others. While I WOULD but this at its current price of 13USD, I think I got it on sale. The music, game variety/customization, and overall aesthetic are very charming and worth experiencing either solo or with some friends.

This game is so much fun. I'm a couch multiplayer guy so this is right up my alley with friends. BUY IT!
