How does a party game that allows Android devices to take part look like? What does it need to bring to the table to be fun and engaging? Pardon the obvious pun in the title, but we feel like BombSquad – a game designed by Eric Froemling – really hits the nail on the head as a cooperative party game that users will have no problem picking up from the get go.


The game mechanics may be simple – but they’re challenging enough to not push users to the edge of boredom. Skill in the game will shine through, and people who have played the game before will have familiarity as an advantage. BombSquad is a bomb game, hence the name, and players expectedly will use bombs to blow up other players. There are power-ups galore and different bomb types with special abilities. You get the picture, right?

Bombsquad takes game design to absolute fun as it allows players the ability to sprint, jump, punch, and grab each other. Translate this to a gaming party and it is all boisterous enjoyment for everyone. If you’re thinking however that the game could become stale at some point, you will be right – but the developer has got you covered. Bombsquad has a slew of different game types to keep gameplay fresh and interesting, including football, tower defense, and other games where you can blow enemies up.

The game was previously only available for iOS devices, and then on the OUYA gaming console, before finally landing on Android. It’s a free download right now via the Google Play Store, with in-app purchases. You should get all your other friends who have Android devices to download the game so that the party can begin.
