4 | ''Bomberman Land'' is the ''VideoGame/{{Bomberman}}'' franchise's personal series of [[MiniGameGame minigame-centric]] {{Party Game}}s. The first three games were only released in Japan, then the series began being released internationally with ''Bomberman Land Touch!''. |

6 | The story for each game is the same at its core: Shiro Bom / Cheerful White and his friends all travel to a theme park and take part in its attractions. Unlike games such as ''VideoGame/MarioParty'' which use a ''TabletopGame/{{Monopoly}}''-styled board game layout, the theme park is an explorable overworld, and the player must complete the park's various minigames in order to unlock more of the park to explore. |

24 | !!This game series provides examples of: |
25 | * AmbiguouslyGay: Racer Bomber, considering he never notices Pretty Bomber's crush in 3 and is protective of White to the point of insisting he gives up on saving Pretty in the Adventure mode of 2. |
26 | * BigBrotherInstinct: Racer Bomber is really protective of White in the ''Land 2'' Main Game. |
27 | * CheerfulChild: [[MeaningfulName Cheerful White.]] |
28 | * ChuckCunninghamSyndrome: Aka Bom and Racer Bomber vanished after the third game. |
29 | * DamselInDistress: Pretty Bomber is kidnapped pretty often. Aqua as well in ''Touch! 2''. |
30 | * DubNameChange: Each protagonist was renamed when the series started being brought over from Japan. This can be confusing as Pretty Bomber is an established character, but she was called Cute Pink. |
31 | ** In ''Bomberman Hardball'', Shiro Bom became Ivory Bomber, Kuro Bom became Star Bomber, Midori Bom became Jade Bomber, Ao Bom became Blue Bomber ([[JustForFun/IThoughtItMeant not]] [[VideoGame/MegaManClassic that one]]), and Pretty Bomber and Gold Bomber were left intact. |
32 | * JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Gold |
33 | * {{Keet}}: Blue |
34 | * MiniGameGame |
35 | * MsViceGirl: Pretty Bomber |
36 | * ObliviousToLove: In ''Land 3'', Racer Bomber doesn't notice Pretty Bomber is smitten by him. |
37 | * PartyGame |

39 | * TheRival: Black. |
40 | * ScarfOfAsskicking: Black in some games and Racer Bomber. |
41 | * SmittenTeenageGirl: Pretty Bomber. |
42 | * SpinOff |
43 | * SuperDeformed: Well, more than usual. It got dropped after ''Land 3'' in favor of the franchise's traditional art style. |
44 | * VerbalTic: Black says "dude" quite often. |
