Boom! brings the Action genre to life, and throws up exciting challenges for gamers. Developed by 1Button, this Android game is best experienced on BlueStacks, the World’s #1 app player for PC and Mac users.
Boom! feels like a turn-based 2D artillery brawler with chunky pixel art and a lot of mayhem. Each turn is a tiny puzzle. Aim an arc, watch gravity, maybe try a ricochet off a wall or two, then see if the terrain even survives the blast. Maps crumble fast, and that is the fun. One second there is a neat hill to hide behind, next second someone drinks a Brick Potion and carves a staircase or drops a big hole. Movement toys keep things wild too. Players can leap, burrow tunnels, teleport onto a cliff, go invisible, or throw up shields and walls to buy a turn.
The arsenal is goofy and serious at the same time. There are classic shots like bazookas, lasers, grenades, drill rockets and flying bombs, and then the silly curveballs like ducks, chickens, poop, fart beans and mirror shields. Some weapons are luck driven, so a round can turn from genius to disaster in one button press. Battles are quick online duels, and the game splits players into arenas from Training up to God, each with its own rules and hand-made stages. There is a global ladder for bragging rights, seasonal modes with odd twists like lunar gravity or sudden death, and private rooms for friend groups who want their own rules.
Collecting is a whole thing. More than 200 fighter skins are tucked behind achievements and milestones, from unicorns to wizards to classic knights. Emoji chat is built in, daily gifts drop coins and items, and the base guns never run out. It is free to play with optional purchases, but there are no ads breaking up the matches. On PC with BlueStacks, the big screen and mouse aiming make angles and long bounces easier to judge, and hotkeys keep turns snappy without losing the simple, tap-friendly controls that make it easy to learn. There is a player level that climbs to 100, so there is always another small target to chase while the maps explode into confetti.
Slay your opponents with your epic moves. Play it your way on BlueStacks and dominate the battlefield.
