Bomberman '93 is a Bomberman title for the TurboGrafx-16. It was re-released in the on the Wii Virtual Console, with full multiplayer capability intact, in Japan, Europe and the United States. It costs 600 Wii Points ($6 USD).

Bomberman is a maze style game similar to Pac-Man or Dig Dug.

You navigate around a maze dropping bombs that explode after a delay. Some squares can be destroyed by bombs, opening paths or revealing trasures underneath. The base grid consists of blocks which cannot be destroyed and can used as shelters.

As you pick up powerups you are able to drop more than one bomb at a time, create a larger explosion or actually kick bombs. The map may have additional features such as conveyor belts, warp points or no-bomb squares that will affect the strategy.

In single player mode your goal is to cause all the monsters in the maze to die in explosions. In multiplayer mode there are no monsters and there can be up to five characters, either player or computer controlled, running around the map.
