Bomberman DS is quite strange. First you use the stylus to inflate a ballon on the other screen. After that, you play Bomberman.

Make sense yet? The point of the balloon is to do it really fast. The faster you do it, the more power ups you get before the game. During Bomberman, the top screen displays a 3D view point of Bomberman, while the bottom screen shows a 2D overview. If you have played any Bomberman before, then you know what to expect. However, a new DS twist emerges. That balloon you inflated will float around and posses a Bomberman. If you get possessed, you must use the stylus to shake the ghost of Bomberman.

A really enticing fantasy for Bomberman DS is Wi-Fi multiplayer and such. Bomberman is a simple yet rather neat way utilize DS’s dual screen. In short, I liked it.
