What Makes Bug Bomber Stand Out
Bug Bomber is a classic action puzzle game. Your board is full of red, yellow and blue bugs. Destroy all the bugs using the colored bombs dropping from above. Sequences of four or more of the same color will clear that entire sequence. 21 levels of difficulty and 3 different speeds make this game easy to grasp, but harder to finish at the higher levels and speeds.

Community Insight:
There is something that calms our nerves while playing and it is nice, basic fun. But for whatever reason, we find the sounds creepy and although they are set to off every time we reboot the game, the music and sounds are back. Clearly not the end of the world, we can just turn the sound off on our device or re-tell it to turn sounds off its just a little tedious.
Love this game. Its great if you have a few minutes of downtime to play a couple rounds. The controls feel better than other Dr Mario type games Ive tried. Definitely with the dollar since other similar apps have pop up ads.
We remembered playing Dr Mario years ago and went looking for an app. We like this one because it works well, and especially because it allows for a two-player game so we can play against our sister like we did years ago. Tapping to control takes a bit of getting used to, but this version is well-designed and works better than the others we tried. Worth the dollar for sure. If we could request ONE addition, it would be a pause button! We dont think this is a big ask from a programming standpoint, so would you please add that for us? A kid needs our attention or we get a phone callit would be nice not to start over every time. Also important for a two-player gametwice the interruptions. A secondary request is a way to rotate the pill counter-clockwise when desired. Maybe tap the left half or left edge of the screen for counter-clockwise. We like to start with the pills stacked to 19 or 20, and that rotation option would be helpful. Thanks for a good little game.
We loved Dr. Mario on the NES and this version is tons of fun! We like that the controls are what you expect from a mobile game (tap the screen to turn the pull, slide down on the screen to drop the pill to the bottom). We dont like the versions that have the directional buttons on the screen. While Id prefer to use real buttons like those try to mimic, Ive never had good experiences with them on a mobile game. One thing we wish this version could do is drop the pill quickly, but not all the way to the bottom. If Im playing a slow speed or against an opponent we want to move the pill quickly and slide it into place but we dont know if this game has that capability. Otherwise, fantastic game.
We just got into NES Dr. Mario and wanted to find a good app to play with our girlfriend. This is a really great version and we're glad we found it. We're confused about the one negative review that calls this a scam, because it's not. It's literally what it's marketed as, a puzzle game that's a Dr. Mario clone, and it's great.
Im not sure why no love is coming this way. This game is full on classic Dr. Mario without the flash, which we find a good thing. It is almost impossible to find a well crafted puzzle game now a days that isnt some flashy, fast forward, extreme, pay to win, blah blah blah. Our wife and we love this game. Thank you, Dev.
