'''Bob-omb Breakers''' is a ''{{wp|Puyo Puyo}}''-like 4-Player [[minigame]] from ''[[Mario Party 4]]'' and a Puzzle minigame from ''[[Mario Party DS]]''.
'''Bob-omb Breakers''' is a ''Tetris''-like four-player [[mini-game]] from ''[[Mario Party 4]].'' It reappeared in ''[[Mario Party DS]]'' as a Puzzle mini-game. Each character starts with his or her own column, three squares wide and about fifteen squares high. Two by two, blocks will fall from the top of their column. Players must control the falling pieces to make groups of three or more like colored pieces. Doing so will break them and earn points for the player. If the blocks break in such away that one set of blocks falls to form another group of three, a chain is formed and even more points are scored. Sometimes, [[Bob-omb]]s will fall. Surrounding a Bob-omb with blocks causes it to explode taking out all the pieces touching it, scoring points for each piece. This mini-game can be compared to [[Block Star]] from ''[[Mario Party 6]]''.


==Overview==
Players are not restricted to placing blocks and Bob-ombs their own columns. Any player can place any block anywhere, but they will only get points if they are the one who completes the group of three. As a final note, if any player's column gets completely filled up, that player cannot participate until some of his or her blocks are cleared by other players.

<br clear=all>
Players earn [[point]]s by grouping three or more similarly colored blocks to break them. Further points are earned from chains, where more groups of blocks are broken in a row. [[Bob-omb]]s can sometimes fall and explode by being surrounded with blocks. Though a 3x9 column is assigned to each player, they can still match blocks in others' columns, but if a player's column overflows, they are unable to play unless the blocks are cleared from their column. The first player to get 100 points wins, though if only one player's column has not overflown, that player wins instead.

Some changes were done in the one-player ''Mario Party DS'' version, though the two-player version has the same rules as in ''Mario Party 4''. Gameplay is done from the touch screen, while the top screen only gives a hint about surrounding a Bob-omb. There is also an "all clear" bonus worth 1,000 points. The amount of points earned from matching blocks equals the number cleared at once multiplied by the current level number, and a chain reaction also multiplies the position of the chain. Each level has a gauge, with the leftmost and rightmost columns closing after the first tier, then two more columns after the second tier, and two more columns once the gauge is full, leaving only the middle three columns open; by leveling up, the gauge resets, and the affected columns are reopened. One can go up to level 99, and clearing it only empties the gauge again.<ref>{{cite|author=Dark Deal|date=April 4, 2022|url=www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm40274774|title=【マリオパーティDS】ボムへいパズル TAS|publisher=NicoNico|accessdate=March 24, 2024|language=ja}}</ref>
