Game appearances[]
Angry Birds[]
Bomb makes his first debut in the original game as the fourth bird introduced and as a member of the core flock. After his first appearance in Poached Eggs 2-5, he becomes a playable character in all of the following themes. (excluding The Big Setup, which was entirely based on Hal and Terence, though you can use him as the shockwave powerup). In early versions of the game, Bomb had a white spot on his forehead. This appeared in his original plush toy, as well as promotions and animations. However, it has since been removed.
A very prominent appearance of Bomb is Short Fuse, where he is the center character. The entire episode focuses on him and his ability changes. His voice was changed for an update.
Bomb is a very strong character and was considered the strongest when the game was first released. He was the only bird at the time that could effectively destroy stone himself, though Matilda's egg bombs can as well. Bomb's strengths and weaknesses are seen here.
Short Fuse[]
- Main article: Shockwave
In the theme Short Fuse, Bomb is introduced with an entirely different ability named "Shockwave", which he obtains when he fiddles with the pigs' scientific equipment. This ability is much more powerful than his original and works similarly. It can be activated when the player taps the screen or a couple of seconds after he hits a surface. When his ability is activated, he sends out a growing circle of electricity to the objects around him, damaging and forcefully pushing them away, where most of the blocks are then completely obliterated. Rather than his original ability, which just breaks the closest bricks, the shockwave damages the blocks, racking up the players' scores significantly higher.
Though the shockwave ability is exclusive to the theme, it can be used as a powerup in all themes of the game. (The player will need to either spend coins, purchase or watch advertisements to get the powerup.) (Angry Birds)
Angry Birds Seasons[]
Bomb appears from the very start of the game when it was first known as Angry Birds Halloween. After his first appearance in Trick or Treat, he is then on a playable character in all of the themes that follow. Unlike all of the other installments of the Angry Birds series, Seasons keeps the characters' original designs, so Bomb is in his classic appearance. Once again, Bomb's spot on his forehead is removed. However, just like Chuck's Red-like appearance, Bomb can be seen with his spot in multiple promotions for the original Angry Birds Halloween game. This includes the trailer and early cutscenes for the game which has since been removed. However, it has been proved through these cutscenes that Bomb's spot was light being shined off of him, as the spot appears in a different part of his body depending on the way he is positioned. Because of this, it can be assumed that the spot was removed because Rovio wanted Bomb to be more bird-like with feathers, rather than made like an actual bomb.
Like all of the other characters, Bomb has costumes that can be unlocked by the player. Bomb, like all the other characters, can at times appear as the main character in specific themes for the game. (This happened in Ham Dunk, where he appeared in the cover art alongside Bubbles and Jay, Jake, and Jim.)
Bomb has the same ability to explode as before, and not much is changed about his size, strength, or speed. In water-themed levels, like Piglantis, Bomb reacts pretty normally to water logic. However, it can be noted that if he hits a structure the second he resurfaces, the player should instantly activate his ability, as once he hits the blocks he will bounce off of them and go back into the water. The Shockwave power-up is back in Angry Birds Seasons. It works completely similar to how it works in the Classic Angry Birds game. However, in the paid Ham Dunk levels, the power-up is converted into the State Farm Bomb power-up, which's fuse and electric rays are red instead of blue. (Angry Birds Seasons)
Angry Birds Rio[]
Bomb does not appear early on in the game, but rather in the Beach Volley episode. He is not captured with Red, Chuck, Jay, Jake, and Jim, but it can be assumed that he travelled there in order to help them. This is the first time that Bomb isn't introduced when the game is first released, but through updates. After his introduction level, he appears in all of the themes that follow.
Bomb and the other members of the flock manage to defeat Nigel and free all of the rare birds, and hijack the plane and go back to Piggy Island, where they arrive just in time to save the eggs from being stolen by the pigs once again. Bomb and the other birds later on travel back to Rio to visit their friends Blu and Jewel, beginning the Rio 2 segment. In this portion of levels, Bomb receives a different design like all the other characters. He is modeled after his Toons appearance, receiving slightly changed features in his beak, eyes, and eyebrows, and gets better shading and different outlining.
Bomb bears the same ability that he has in the previous two installments. No changes are made to his speed, strength, or size. High Dive introduced water features to Rio, and it works the same way that they do in Piglantis for Bomb.
It is notable that caged birds/dolphins and marmosets are much more tougher than the poppable pigs, so Bomb cannot destroy the targets as easily as he can with the pigs. If the player activates his ability near Luiz in Beach Volley, then the dog will fly off into the air, and can destroy blocks and enemies with ease. This is a good strategy to use during the level, but the player must note that he will go after the beachballs, not the structures. (Angry Birds Rio)
Angry Birds Friends[]
Bomb appears as a playable character in Angry Birds Friends. Bomb is the same as in previous slingshot games. When launched, if the player taps him, he will explode. He is very strong against stone, glass and wood. His explosion is very strong against materials and has an strong shockwave. In the Star Cup, he can be leveled up by obtaining feathers. Bomb also appeared purchasable in the Bird-O-Matic. He can wear any accessory and can be chosen as the player's avatar. (Angry Birds Friends)
Angry Birds Space[]
In Angry Birds Space, Bomb appears as Space Bomb.[1] At the start of the events of the game, he and his friends were taking care of their eggs as usual, until they spotted a wormhole in the sky and, falling from it, Ice Bird and an eggsteroid. Eventually, they saw a large metallic claw fall from the wormhole, which grabbed a chunk of soil with the eggsteroid and the left with it. Furious, Ice Bird used the group's slingshot to enter the wormhole. While Bomb and his friends initially did not care about this, they soon after found out that their eggs were stolen as well. Enraged, they used the slingshot to enter the wormhole as well. They soon after found themselves in space, with new transformations, stopping King Pig from stealing the eggsteroids. (Angry Birds Space)
Bad Piggies[]
Bomb makes a cameo in Flight in the Night, where he appears asleep next to Red in one level. Even if the player attempts to land near him or wake him, he will not move and remain asleep. Though he appears in this level, he does not make an appearance in the rest of the levels or any of the other levels as an enemy. (Bad Piggies)
Angry Birds Star Wars[]
- Main article: Bomb/Angry Birds Star Wars/Obi-Wan Kenobi
Bomb is Obi-Wan Kenobi in this game.
Obi-Wan Kenobi[]
Obi-Wan Kenobi is a version of Bomb that appears in both Angry Birds Star Wars and Angry Birds Star Wars II, where he is old and young respectively. He is a Jedi Teacher.
Angry Birds Star Wars II[]
See: Bomb/Angry Birds Star Wars/Obi-Wan Kenobi, Bomb/Angry Birds Star Wars II/Mace Windu and Garazeb "Zeb" Orrelios.
Bomb is Obi-Wan Kenobi, Mace Windu and Garazeb "Zeb" Orrelios in this game.
Obi-Wan Kenobi[]
Bomb makes a major appearance as once again Obi-Wan, though much younger. After his first appearance in Naboo Invasion, he appears as a playable and main character in the themes afterward. (only on the bird side portions)
Mace Windu[]
Bomb is also the counterpart of Mace Windu in the game, a well-respected and feared Jedi in the game, as well as a valued member of the Jedi council.
Garazeb "Zeb" Orrelios[]
Bomb appears as Gazareb "Zeb" Orrelios, a character in the Star Wars Rebels TV series. He was introduced to the game along with a set of other characters, all in promotion of the TV series.
Angry Birds Go![]
Bomb appears in Angry Birds Go! as the second bird (3rd bird in Version 1) to be introduced in the game and is first seen in Seedway. After the player unlocks him, they can use him in any of the races as a playable character.
Like all of the other characters, Bomb receives his own 3D animation for the game. He also appears in his Angry Birds Toons animation style.
Bomb also had merchandising, having a Jenga playset as well as a Telepod figurine.
Gameplay[]
All of the characters have their own unique abilities in the game, and Bomb's is activated once his power-up beaker is filled. Following the trend of previous Angry Birds games, Bomb can explode, causing the birds and pigs near him to be knocked and jolted away.
While the ability may seem effective when Bomb is first unlocked, once the player unlocks stronger characters and progresses to harder levels Bomb will become less and less useful.
The ability is best used when Bomb is near other players, putting him at a disadvantage if the player is far behind other players.
Angry Birds Epic[]
Bomb appears as one of the 5 playable characters in the story mode and is a main character in the game. Once he is unlocked, he is a playable character for the rest of the game. (excluding a portion where he is kidnapped at one part of the game) Bomb appears in promotional art and trailers for the game.
Bomb, like all of the other playable characters, can be customized and upgraded to the player's preference provided that they have enough resources. (Angry Birds Epic)

Angry Birds Transformers[]
Main article: Bomb/Angry Birds Transformers
Bomb initially appeared in promotional art for the game before he made his official debut in the game in 2016 as Deadlock, a former Deceptihog that later became Drift, Wheeljack, Grapple, Warpath and Omega Supreme. (Angry Birds Transformers)
Angry Birds POP![]
Bomb first appeared in the game as a limited edition character and was only available for a short period of time. Later on, the game was changed to a regular Angry Birds game rather than an attachment to the Stella series, and the characters (excluding Stella) were changed to members of Red's flock. Bomb took what was originally Poppy's section, Beat The Clock.
In the Beat The Clock section, the player must assist Bomb in popping the bubbles and blocks. The player beats the level by popping all of the bubbles before the clock's countdown goes to 0. In both of these segments, the player is given a limited amount of bubbles and if the player runs out, then the player loses the level. Bomb, like all of the other characters, has his own special bubble that can be used when the player makes enough pairings. His pop, entitled the Explosive Pop, will pop a line of bubbles that the special bubbles are aiming at. (Angry Birds POP!)
Angry Birds Fight![]
Bomb appeared in Angry Birds Fight! as once again as the tritagonist. He was one out of the 6 playable characters the player could have chosen from and was the first character that the player was introduced to in the very beginning of the game. Other than being a playable character, he also appeared as an icon in the matching board. Certain parts of the game used computer animation, such as the player's customizable characters. Bomb used computer animation when fighting other characters as well as some other parts of the game. He took on his Angry Birds Toons animation style and while other games had their own styles, Fight! takes character animation directly from the Toons series.
Like all of the other birds in the game, Bomb was customizable to the player's preference, and the player would be able to purchase costumes and weapons for Red with in-game currency.
The game wouldn't include direct gameplay with the birds, but rather a tile-matching objective. Matching 3 of the bird icons would have popped the birds out, and matching 4 or more would activate the specific bird's special ability. If 4 of Bomb's icons were matched, then he would explode and cover the panel board of the opponent in ashes. Once the round was over, the two battling players began fighting, and the player's success would entirely be based on how much points they were able to gather together. (Angry Birds Fight!)
Angry Birds 2[]
Bomb appears in the first official sequel to the original game, Angry Birds 2, as once again one of the protagonists. He is unlocked after obtaining a key, which can be used to unlock a character of the player's choice, meaning that Bomb can be unlocked anytime. He returns with his classic ability but he is stronger. The game also introduced computer animation for the birds and the pigs, which had never happened with the previous slingshot installments of the series. (which used pre-set separate sprites for when the bird is idle, flies, etc.) Bomb also appears in his Toons animation style, along with the voice used in the series. In addition, Bomb has his own daily event, named Bomb's Blast, which can be played on Saturdays.
He is strong against stone, glass or wood, he blows up after touching the screen or waiting for him to flash red and then explode. In this game, his ability is stronger, pushing blocks and structures after blowing up. When the player is aiming Bomb, stone objects will be highlighted, indicating that that is the material Bomb is best at destroying. His card can be leveled up using feathers, which increases the points obtained after using him, his card will change form and change color, matching the power of it. (Angry Birds 2)
Angry Birds Action![]
Bomb appeared in Angry Birds Action! as once again a tritagonist. He appeared for the very first time (in an Angry Birds game) in his Movie animation style, which prominently included arms and legs.
Bomb appeared in the 7th level of the game as a strong character that blows up upon the first contact with objects.
The game was based on 3D animation, so Bomb, along with all of the other characters used 3D character models.
As of October 2017, the game had been discontinued.
Gameplay[]
The entire game was based on a puzzle-pinball genre, and there were certain objectives that each level could have to complete the level.
The player could have used Bomb by pointing him at a target and shooting, and Bomb would then hit, bounced off targets until he ran out of speed.
Bomb's ability is exploding when he hits an object that he is targeted to hit, after that, he will stop exploding and start to bounce off other objects if any.
Like all of the other characters, as Bomb leveled up he would have received special boosts. In his bronze stage, he would have the bounce boost. In his silver stage, he would have the speed boost. In his gold stage, he receives an extra move.
Angry Birds Ace Fighter[]
Bomb appeared in Angry Birds Ace Fighter, as once again a playable character and tritagonist. He appeared in promotional material and trailers for the game.
Bomb's Description In-Game:
The main goal of Bomb is to enjoy life. He has no interest in tactics, strategic meetings or even tidying his room. He only feels happy when he's setting off an explosion or making mischief
Rovio announced that the game would be discontinuing due to adjustment of structure platform, as well as an expired contract with Siamgame. On September 6, 2016, the game was removed from the Play and App stores and recharge was turned off, making the game nearly impossible. On October 10, servers were shut down.
Gameplay[]
The gameplay was based on a Shoot em up style, with the player located at the bottom of the screen as the enemies fly downwards from the very top. Not much was known about Bomb's role specifically in the game. It was known that he was one of 4 different playable characters, and could be paired with different kinds of planes.
Angry Birds Blast![]
Bomb appears in Angry Birds Blast! as one of the main characters and like most of them, he has to be freed to complete the level. Like most of the characters, he doesn't use his ability in-game.

(Angry Birds Blast!)
Angry Birds Holiday[]
Bomb appeared in Angry Birds Holiday as a main character. He took care of the slingshot and flung pigs to other players. However, the game stopped development and was shut down as of December 31, 2016.
The app was a building game, with Matilda guiding the player as they build a paradise for pig tourists. Some items could be unlocked with in-game currency, and Bomb's item was the slingshot. Not much is known about the gameplay otherwise, as the game was never given a worldwide release. (Angry Birds Holiday)

He also appears when the player fails a level, crying. The game uses vectored sprites, so, Bomb, along with the other characters, uses this type of design.
If the player merges a Chuck with another Chuck, Bomb will appear. The larger Chuck is, the larger Bomb will be. If tapped, Bomb will explode, popping a bunch of bubbles, almost all of them. If there is a block near him, he will destroy it with his explosion. Bomb also appears like a profile picture that the player can unlock and choose.

In the Space Race, his design is based on his one in Angry Birds Space. He is also introduced as an icon and artwork character, which he often appears.
Bomb can be unlocked at the Piñata by collecting points. The points to unlock him are 120 like all of the other characters. Bomb can appear at any level where the player uses him.
