Bug Bomber 4+

Great game!

I loved Dr. Mario on the NES and this version is tons of fun! I like that the controls are what you expect from a mobile game (tap the screen to turn the pull, slide down on the screen to drop the pill to the bottom). I don’t like the versions that have the directional buttons on the screen. While I’d prefer to use real buttons like those try to mimic, I’ve never had good experiences with them on a mobile game. One thing I wish this version could do is drop the pill quickly, but not all the way to the bottom. If I’m playing a slow speed or against an opponent I want to move the pill quickly and slide it into place but I don’t know if this game has that capability. Otherwise, fantastic game!

Developer Response ,

Thanks for your feedback! After you swipe down to fast-drop the pill you can swipe up to return to normal drop speed. That behavior can be a little finicky though.

Good game, could be great with just a little attention

I remembered playing Dr Mario years ago and went looking for an app. I like this one because it works well, and especially because it allows for a two-player game so I can play against my sister like I did years ago. Tapping to control takes a bit of getting used to, but this version is well-designed and works better than the others I tried. Worth the dollar for sure.

If I could request ONE addition, it would be a *pause button*! I don’t think this is a big ask from a programming standpoint, so would you please add that for us? A kid needs my attention or I get a phone call—it would be nice not to start over every time. Also important for a two-player game—twice the interruptions.

A secondary request is a way to rotate the pill counter-clockwise when desired. Maybe tap the left half or left edge of the screen for counter-clockwise. I like to start with the pills stacked to 19 or 20, and that rotation option would be helpful.

Thanks for a good little game!

Super Fun!

Love this game. It’s great if you have a few minutes of downtime to play a couple rounds. The controls feel better than other Dr Mario type games I’ve tried. Definitely with the dollar since other similar apps have pop up ads.
