How to play
Move through a grid of destructible and solid walls, dropping bombs that detonate into a cross of flame. Blast through soft walls to open routes and reveal power-ups, and time your bombs to catch enemies in the explosion, while never standing in your own blast radius.
Bombs explode in a plus-shaped flame; the flame is stopped by solid walls.
Destroy soft walls to find power-ups that lengthen your blast and let you carry more bombs.
Trap opponents in the flame while keeping your own escape route clear.
Controls
Desktop: Player 1 uses WASD with Q or Shift to bomb; Player 2 uses the Arrow keys with Enter or '.' to bomb.
Phone & tablet: on-screen movement and bomb buttons make it playable by touch.
Game modes
Campaign, clear stages of computer enemies.
Versus AI, duel the computer at adjustable difficulty.
Versus 2P, local hot-seat battle; plus an online option.
Tips & strategy
Always drop a bomb knowing exactly which way you'll flee, never box yourself into the blast.
Open up the soft walls early to collect power-ups before the fights get tight.
Herd opponents into dead ends, then seal them in with a well-placed bomb.
