The premise, in the publisher's words
Bomberic is a top-down game inspired by Bomberman. The player is in a labyrinth, and must find and open the exit to enter the next level. Opening the exit requires collecting a requisite number of keys, which are hidden within destructible blocks that can be blown up by bombs or mines. The blocks can also contain a variety of other items, including health pickups and power-ups. The player's supply of bombs is infinite, but the number of mines is limited. The labyrinth is haunted by monsters which can only be destroyed by damaging them with explosives. Close contact with monsters or getting caught in an explosion lowers the player's health meter.
