Bomberman is back in this crazy sequel by Hudson Soft.
The goal of the game is still the same. Our little blue and white Bomberman
friend has to complete each stage by placing timed bombs around and cleaning up every single
monster that populate them.
In this new episode, the evil Kurobon, the black Bomberman, has
stolen the components of the Galaxy's power station and has hidden them throughout seven
different worlds. The white Bomberman has been sent on a mission to
retrieve them and to capture the culprit. Bomberman '93 proposes
numerous new features compared to the original game. Tons of new traps
and devices have been added to each stages - like warps, gates and so forth.
Boss encounters have also evolved and the baddies found at the end of
each area are now larger and nastier. As in the Bomberman tradition,
the game also features an intense multi-player battle mode where up to
five Bombermen can blow each other up !

A rare Bomberman'93 Special Version exists (picture on the left) and was probably made available for
some sort of gaming contest organized by Hudson Soft. It is hard to
tell if if was part of the Caravan Competition (see
Super Star Soldier
for more information). Bomberman'93 Special Version comes as a single HuCard
and only features the Battle mode.

Bomberman'93 was also part of Bomberman Collection released
for PC computers by Hudson Soft and Konami in 2003. The game includes
the original Bomberman and Bomberman World.

Teaser text from the American version:
Tension, strategy, action, excitement - Bomberman's back!
You can bow battle against up to four computer-controlled maniacs
by yourself for the ultimate five bomberman mode.
Choose from seven exciting new stages with loads of new power-up
items like warps, conveyer belts, revolving doors and even kicking
bombs !
Or for portable thrills, go head-to-head against a friend using
TurboExpress for non-stop action.
The best competitive game is back, and it's more intense than ever !

Bomberman'93 is the second best Bomberman game for the
PC Engine system to my taste. Hudson Soft has added here several wicked
improvements to the original mix - the single player story mode is now
way better than its predecessor. It includes better structured worlds and
extremely fun boss encounters. Each end of stage
also features fun bonus images depicting
our hero messing around with the defeated boss. This great idea
was also later used in Star Parodia or Konami's Detana !! Twin Bee
and I wonder who ultimately came up with it first... doesn't matter really.
Anyway, once again the game really shines during the
frantic multi-player mode where up to five Bombermen can blow
each other up at the same time with unbridled joy. This game is a real blast -cough- sorry I couldn't resist
tossing this joke out...
