  • Summary: Smart Bomb delivers a tense gameplay experience as players are faced with a series of fast paced, challenging 3D puzzles based around diffusing sophisticated AI bombs. Gamers are faced with a series of bomb modules split into tiers and each tier must be disabled to unlock the next. As a tier is disabled the player moves closer to the detonator at the core of the bomb which must be deactivated before moving onto a new challenge. Single player action includes story, arcade and challenge modes while multiplayer mode challenges four players in a series of head to head gaming action. [Eidos Enteractive]… Expand

    Smart Bomb will make you alternately hate and love it. You'll swear, curse, kick and scream, and come back for more. If you're up to the challenge, Smart Bomb will give you one of the best puzzle experiences in years.

    Had potential, but it's ultimately too unpolished and player unfriendly for any but the most puzzle hardcore. [July 2005, p.88]

    The visual performance is poor, the puzzles are drab, and the story mode is laughably lame.

    Short load times.Pretty good game, although it does get frustrating. Most of the even early level puzzles are challenging. An innovative game for the PSP.… Expand

    This may be the most frustrating game i've ever played. It is by far the worst game i've played for the psp. The controls fight while you try to figure out in 45 seconds how to acomplish complex goals. the screen shakes and can make it hard to see just whats going on and if you don't get one puzzle right you start from the begining of the level. I was looking forward to this one and hoped it would be a unique puzzle game but instead i get a steaming turd of a game.… Expand
