Synopsis

Tetris Blast, known in Japan as Super Bombliss is a 1995 puzzle video game released for the Game Boy. Developed by Bullet-Proof Software, Tetris Blast has its roots in a game called Bombliss, designed by a Japanese team and first released in Tetris 2 + Bombliss for the Famicom in Japan. Tetris Blast follows the mechanics of Tetris with the addition of bombs to some of the blocks. When a full row of blocks is completed, any bombs within the blocks explode which has the potential to set off a chain reaction of other blocks nearby. The game has three modes: one for practice. The second is titled "Contest" where the goal is to clear an area of blocks in a chute already filled with blocks and bombs. The third is Fight mode which allows for the player to play the game while insect-like creatures cause problems on the playing board from adding blocks to eating bombs. Tetris Blast was released in Japan in 1995 and then the following year for the Game Boy. The Japanese publication Famitsu lamented the lack of a puzzle mode and said it lacked enough differences from previous iterations of Bombliss. A number of English-language reviewers generally complimented Tetris Blast, while finding it not as strong as the original Tetris.
