Bomberman

Bomberman is the most famous character created by Hudson Soft. This is the first game with his participation. The rules are simple to the point of genius - you have to destroy all the unfriendly creatures on the level using bombs and then find a way out before time runs out. The blast from each bomb travels in four directions, so you need to be aware of this so you don't accidentally explode yourself. Also make sure you don't get trapped in a corner by a bomb. Bomberman starts out weak and feeble, but by picking up power-ups on each level you can pump him up quite a bit. It's an insanely addictive game that's a real thrill to play.
