Kaboom!

Kaboom! is an arena game for head-to-head battles with 2 to 8 players. You use quick thinking, planning and luck to outwit opponents, collect power-ups and attack them with bombs and other abilities. Arenas have their own set-pieces and obstacles, and you can play in custom lobbies with your own rules or compete in ranked tournaments.

Game modes

Modes include free-for-all and team battles, with different objectives and match rules:

• Elimination Classic: In this single-life mode for 2 to 8 players, be the last player standing to win. If the timer runs out, the player with the most kills wins.
• Team Battle: Play in 2 or 4 teams: either 4 teams of 2 or 2 teams of 2–4. Each player has one life, and the last team with at least one player standing wins.
• Deathmatch: Respawn repeatedly and try to score the most kills, losing your powers each time you respawn. Defeat the current kill leader to take their powers and abilities. Team-based variants are also available.
• King-Of-The-Hill: A new section of the map becomes the Hill every 30 seconds. Hold it for as long as possible; the player or team with the most accumulated hill time wins.
• Capture the Flag: Take the flag to your home base to score. You cannot place bombs while carrying it, so you must rely on teammates to clear the way.
• Boss Fight!: One heavily powered player faces 3 to 7 opponents in a short, timed match. The opponents must take down the boss before time runs out.

Multiplayer

You can play online, host local LAN games or play split-screen with up to 4 local players.
