Bomberman: Panic Bomber
TurboGrafx CD · 1994
About this game
It is a "falling blocks" puzzle game based on the Bomberman franchise.
The goal of the game is essentially to cause your opponent to lose by causing their gameplay field to fill to the top with objects.

You do this by causing chains of bombs to explode, sending useless rubble over to your opponent's field, which they must then remove themselves.
Bombs are earned by causing chains of three identical blocks to disappear.
Bombs can only be blown up with an explosion from a lit bomb, which falls from the top of the screen every so often.
If the player causes enough damage, they can eventually earn a giant bomb, which will remove a large amount of debris from the playing field, and cause their opponent a good deal of trouble.
The game's regular story mode revolves around Bomberman's hunt for the Golden Bomber statue.
During his trek, he fights against several different odd characters, like Drifty the balloon, or Cecil the tiger.
However, all that can really be earned from playing through this mode is a harder difficulty level, earned by finishing the entire story at the "hard" difficulty level.
About TurboGrafx CD
The TurboGrafx-CD (1989) was one of the earliest CD-ROM add-ons for a home console, expanding the TurboGrafx-16's library with games too large for cartridges. Its already-niche parent platform combined with the added cost of the CD add-on kept the North American audience small, making complete TurboGrafx-CD sets a genuinely rare find for collectors today.

Rarity & condition
Only a handful of market sales have been tracked for Bomberman: Panic Bomber, suggesting it doesn't trade hands very often — a sign of relative scarcity compared to more common TurboGrafx CD titles.
Complete-in-box (CIB) copies typically command a premium over loose cartridges/discs because the original box and manual are more fragile and get discarded or damaged over time — fewer complete sets survive.
