Gameplay The gameplay of Boom Blox is centered around a series of Jenga-like block towers, with the game making heavy use of physics to control the movement of blocks. The developers kept the reception to the original in mind when developing the sequel, and so the shooting mini-games (by most critics mentioned as the worst part of Boom Blox) were mostly absent in this sequel. Though the developers tried to include features such as headtracking and Wii Motionplus support, limited time for development meant these couldn't be included in the final product. This sequel was first announced January 28th, 2009, and released later that year. Though a sequel was not originally expected, due to relatively weak sales of the original, it was said that Spielberg himself kept coming back to the developing studio with new ideas to possibly implement in the game that couldn't be fit into the first one. Boom Blox was the first (and so far only) project to come out of this collaboration. The original Boom Blox was released in 2008 as part of a collaboration between Steven Spielberg and EA Games originally announced in 2005. It works merely off a system that EA has created for the Nintendo Wii. Some of these levels will be levels from the first game, and will be free to download.īoom Blox Bash Party has also done away with Nintendo's friend codes, and doesn't feature support for the Wii MotionPlus as access to the needed development tools wasn't given early enough. The sequel keeps the core gameplay of the first intact, while adding a new slingshot mechanic, and removing some of the shooting mechanics. New blocks, tools, actions and characters have also been added, along with the addition of user-generated content. All of which is able to be browsed, uploaded, downloaded, and rated through an integrated system, although these levels must first be filtered by EA for inappropriate content before being made available for download. Some of these levels will be made internally at EA, even including one made by Steven Spielberg himself. Boom Blox Bash Party contains more polished gameplay, increased multiplayer components, and over 400 new levels venturing into both outer space and underwater.
