Bomb Dodger

How to play Bomb Dodger

Bomb Dodger is played on an eight-by-five grid. Each wave drops a set of bombs onto random squares, and every bomb shows a fuse bar that fills toward detonation. You move one square at a time, so the whole game is reading which squares will be safe when the fuses run out.

Waves get bigger and fuses shorter as you go. From wave six some bombs are chained, marked in pink, and blast their four neighbours as well. Every bomb you survive scores, and three hits end the run.

Objective

Survive as many bomb waves as possible by moving off telegraphed squares before they detonate.
