Description
Japanese CyberConnect top-down action, where bomber Jutah Fate plants and detonates bombs to liberate the Dante cruiser. Created by CyberConnect and Bandai, released in 1999 in Japan, in 2000 in the United States, Europe, France, Germany, Italy and Spain with multilingual versions under the Silent Bomber title. Fourteen 3D top-down arena missions, bomb-laying-and-detonating gameplay with chains, unlockable VR Arena mode for two-player versus combat and Chikayo Fukuda electronica soundtrack. European multilingual editions.
A top-down arcade action game where you neutralize everything with bombs you plant and detonate from afar, in a flood of stylish explosions. A touch repetitive, it launched to indifference. But its frantic pace, its clarity and its instant fun make it an effective stress-reliever for fans of scoring and nonstop action.
Is Silent Bomber still worth playing in 2026?
An explosive action game from Bandai and CAProduction, Silent Bomber has you plant timed bombs on enemies and structures before detonating them remotely, in snappy, strategic top down action. The original placement and detonation concept, the brisk pace and the science fiction aesthetic stand apart from classic shooters. The demanding difficulty curve and the short length are worth knowing. A singular action game to recommend for fans of original gameplay and cerebral arcade.
