'''Bob-omb Breakers''' is a ''Tetris''-like four-player [[minigame]] from ''[[Mario Party 4]].'' It reappeared in ''[[Mario Party DS]]'' as a Puzzle minigame. Each character starts with his or her own column, three squares wide and nine 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 similar 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 minigame can be compared to [[Block Star]] from ''[[Mario Party 6]]''. In ''Mario Party 4'', the player who gets to 100 points first wins the game.

In ''Mario Party DS'', there are a few changes. The bottom screen shows the entire action, while the top screen shows a tip about surrounding a Bob-omb. In addition to that, there is an "all clear" bonus that gives the player an additional 1,000 points. Each match is worth the number of blocks cleared times the current level number. For example, clearing three blocks on Level 2 is worth six points (3 × 2), while clearing four blocks on Level 3 is worth 12 points (4 × 3). Moreover, if a chain reaction is performed, the number of points granted is multiplied by the position in the chain. For example, if three blocks are cleared on Level 3 on a second chain, it is worth 18 points (3 × 3 × 2). On each level, there is a gauge that depletes. Once it passes the first checkpoint, the leftmost and rightmost columns are closed off. Once the second checkpoint is passed, two additional columns are closed off, for a total of two on each side. Once the gauge is completely depleted, two more columns are closed off to leave only the middle three columns open. Closed-off columns remove any pieces within them. Once the player levels up, the gauge is filled to the max again, causing any closed-off columns to be opened, if there are any. The maximum level is 99, but it can still be completed for the purpose of refreshing the gauge, although the level stays at Level 99.<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=Japanese}}</ref>

Gameplay[edit]

Mario Party 4[edit]

Each character starts with their own column, three squares wide and nine squares high. Two by two, blocks fall from the top of their column. Players must use the falling blocks to earn points by making groups of three or more similar-colored blocks, which breaks them. If the blocks break in such a way that one set falls to form another group of three, a chain is formed and even more points are scored. Sometimes, Bob-ombs fall; surrounding a Bob-omb with blocks causes it to explode and destroy all the blocks touching it, scoring points for each one. The player who gets 100 points first wins the minigame.

Players are not restricted to placing blocks and Bob-ombs in their own columns. Any player can place any block anywhere, but they get points only 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 their blocks are cleared by other players. If three columns are filled up, the player whose column was not completely filled up wins, regardless of points.

Mario Party DS[edit]

In Mario Party DS, there are a few changes. The bottom screen shows the entire action, while the top screen shows a tip about surrounding a Bob-omb. In addition to that, there is an "all clear" bonus that gives the player an additional 1,000 points. Each match is worth the number of blocks cleared times the current level number. For example, clearing three blocks on Level 2 is worth six points (3 × 2), while clearing four blocks on Level 3 is worth 12 points (4 × 3). Moreover, if a chain reaction is performed, the number of points granted is multiplied by the position in the chain. For example, if three blocks are cleared on Level 3 on a second chain, it is worth 18 points (3 × 3 × 2). On each level, there is a gauge that depletes. Once it passes the first checkpoint, the leftmost and rightmost columns are closed off. Once the second checkpoint is passed, two additional columns are closed off, for a total of two on each side. Once the gauge is completely depleted, two more columns are closed off to leave only the middle three columns open. Closed-off columns remove any pieces within them. Once the player levels up, the gauge is filled to the max again, causing any closed-off columns to be opened, if there are any. The maximum level is 99, but it can still be completed for the purpose of refreshing the gauge, although the level stays at Level 99.[1]

The two-player version has the same rules as the Mario Party 4 version.
