Bomberman Story

items

In-game, items are split across two separate inventories: bombs and items. I've chosen to split them into six categories to easier identify them

Bombs Items Upgrades
Quest items Bomb crafting Dungeon kit

Throughout the game you can acquire new bombs by crafting various items, each with a unique trait specialised for certain situations.

Bomb / ボム

"Normal Bomb."
The regular variety of bomb - detonates after 3 seconds with a cross-shaped explosion. You should be familiar with these!
ACQUIRED: You begin the game with this item.

Landmine / じらいボム

"Enemies won't see this kind of bomb."
Landmines will remain on the ground until they are detonated or you leave the screen. They will detonate even if Bomberman treads on them, so think carefully before you place one!
ACQUIRED: Get the Sensor from Temmay and get it fused at the Bomb Shop.

AquaBomb / アクアボム

"Only works in the water."
Necessary to protect yourself during the underwater areas of the Beach Zone. Otherwise, rather unnecessary.
ACQUIRED: Get the RainDrop from Sampei and get it fused at the Bomb Shop.

RCBomb / ラジコンボム

"Can move bomb while holding A."
Bomberman is motionless while the bomb is controlled. Let go of the A Button to stop it. The bomb will still detonate even if you're in control, so place it fast!
ACQUIRED: Get the trans. by winning five Karabon fights in a row; take it to the Bomb Shop.

HoldBomb

"Gets stronger the longer it's held."
Pick up and hold the bomb; every second held will increase its blast radius once it's thrown. Maximum blast radius is 10 tiles. Too slow and unwieldy to use, to be honest.
ACQUIRED: Get the balloon from a knight and get it fused at the Bomb Shop.

PowrBomb / かんつうボム

"Goes through all breakable blocks."
Functions like a Penetration Bomb and burns straight through soft blocks. Would've been nice to have had it way earlier in the game, though.
ACQUIRED: Buy a hammer in Theta and get it fused at the Bomb Shop.

Items that can be found on the overworld or bought in shops.

Sm. Med. / ちいさいクスリ

"Recover 1 Heart."
Select this from the item menu to refill one heart. Only one can be carried at a time. If any extra are picked up, they are are automatically used.
ACQUIRED: Dropped by defeated enemies.

Lg. Med. / おおきいクスリ

A very valuable item, and can be bought in any store for 100G. Only one can be carried at a time.
