Bomb Barge

How to Play

Hold the Wii Remote sideways.
Press the D-Pad to move and 2 to jump.

Ready for a rough and rowdy raft ride? In Bomb Barge, all players sail down a rushing river on a small wooden raft, and Bob-ombs quickly begin to rain down from above!

Don’t get caught standing near a Bob-omb when it blows or you’ll be blasted off the raft. The last player standing is the winner!

Caution

Don’t take a tumble off the raft while attempting to avoid the Bob-ombs—the water is way too cold this time of year!

Watch the raft carefully for tiny shadows that signal inbound Bob-ombs, then bolt out of the way as fast as you can.

Running into a Bob-omb before it erupts causes you to kick it a short distance. Try kicking the Bob-ombs toward your rivals to rid the raft of them fast!

Within moments, your raft will be inundated with dangerous explosives. It doesn’t take long for the Bob-ombs to blow, so hurry and flee, or kick them away!

When a Bob-omb becomes bright red, it’s about to go boom—get out of there on the double!

Jumping can help you dodge the Bob-ombs, and it also helps you leap over pesky players who get in your way.

But don’t jump too often or you won’t be able to kick those short-fused Bob-ombs out of your path! Bomb Barge minigames are usually short, so just do your best to survive this silly trip downstream.
