How to play
Navigate your character through the arena using the directional keys. Place bombs to clear paths or trap opponents. In the two-player mode, one player uses the WASD keys and G to drop bombs, while the other uses the arrow keys and L. Success depends on timing your explosives so they catch your rival within the blast radius while ensuring you have a safe place to retreat.
Tips for beginners
- Always identify an exit route before placing a bomb to avoid getting trapped by your own blast.
- Use the environment to your advantage by forcing opponents into narrow corridors or dead ends.
- Watch your opponent's movement patterns closely to predict where they will place their next explosive.
