Bomb Seeker - Game Overview

Bomb Seeker was written for DOS in 1995 (as a BBS Door program) and in 1997 (as a stand-alone program) by Brad Perolis.

Thank you for trying out 'Brad Perolis Bomb Seeker for Dos'. This game was originally designed for On Ramp BBS, a TBBS based Bulletin Board System in Akron, Ohio. Many hours of enjoyment have been discovered through the games I have created for Tbbs systems and over the years many people have requested versions of the games they could play at home on their own personal computers without having to be logged on to play. This demo is limited only by not maintaining a High Scores list and you may only play 3 games at a time each time you run the demo. If you enjoy playing this game please consider registering. You can obtain a registered version for as little as $6.00 (US). The registered version will maintain a high scores list and allow you to setup tournament type scoring.

He also released a version for Windows in 1997 and hosted competitions on his website.

Bomb Seeker is a puzzle game made for Windows 3.x and Windows 95. The object of the game is to earn as many points as you can by discovering where bombs are hidden (without setting them off) on each level.

The TBBS version was originally $55 later reduced to $25 and allowed a BBS admin to install the game for their users. The DOS version was also 10x10 with 25 mines and you are awarded points for correctly flagging and opening squares. Tournament mode lets you set a fixed number of games to achieve your best score. Version 1.0.1 introduced optional 256 colour mode and multiple lives (hidden under squares). It replaced tournament mode with multiple 10x10 levels where you keep advancing levels with more bombs per level until you lose. Once you complete Level 1 it is possible to lose on a first click but if you have extra lives you survive and keep playing.
