Как играть в «Бумки»: гайд для новичка

Bumki is a free browser arcade in the bomberman genre, where round little blobs blow each other up with bombs on real-time PvP arenas. If you loved bomberman on retro consoles but want to play online against real people — Bumki is for you. There is nothing to install: the question "how to play" is answered in seconds, right in your browser or Telegram, on PC and phone. Here is a step-by-step start for beginners.

Step 1. Instant entry, no signup

Click play for free — an account is created automatically, no forms to fill in. You land straight in the lobby. Later you can link Telegram so your progress, gold and looks are saved.

Step 2. Rooms and lobby

Battles happen in rooms: pick a free room or create your own and wait for opponents. It is classic bomberman multiplayer — gather a duo or play bomberman with friends. Once players gather, a round starts on one of the maze maps.

Step 3. Controls on PC and phone

There are only two core actions — move and drop a bomb:

• On PC: arrows or WASD to move, a separate key to drop a bomb.
• On phone: an on-screen gamepad — a joystick on the left to move and buttons on the right for bombs and actions.
• Emotions use F and G; there is also a voice radio for in-battle chat.

Step 4. Bombs and power-ups

A bomb explodes into a cross of flame that hits in every direction, breaks blocks and catches opponents — just like in classic bomberman. During the fight power-ups drop from broken blocks: an extra charge (more bombs at once), blast radius, speed and guns. Grab them to grow stronger as the round goes on. See the items section for the full list.

Step 5. Round goal, points and gold

The goal is simple — be the last one standing. Your placement earns rating points and gold. Gold piles up and is spent in the cosmetics shop on blob colors, glows, hairstyles and scarves. Cosmetics never affect combat power, only style, so there is no pay-to-win to fear.

What's next

Once comfortable, try Adventures — a separate open-world RPG mode — and check the other guides on tactics, gold and clans. Above all, play for fun and try not to blow yourself up.
