This Spelunky Bombs Guide will show you how to use Bombs in the game, and how to get more of the Bombs. These explosive weapons are very important for the gameplay and will require you to collect as many as you can, especially since you will be using them a lot.
Just like Ropes, you get four bombs at the starting of the level. However, you can also find them hidden in the corners of a stage, allowing you to obtain more and add in your inventory.

Below we have detailed how to use bombs and how you can get more of these.
How to Use Bombs
Bombs run a timer before they explode. Dropping a bomb at a location of your choice will have it run on a small timer for a few seconds before it can explode. If you have played Spelunky, you may very well be aware of the cooking method which allows you to hold the bomb and throw it at the last second, making it explode right upon impact.
While dangerous, it is the most effective way to take down enemies at the right time or if you want to be precise with your throws and hits. It is best to first learn how long the timer runs for and then practice your throws. Holding too long will risk the bomb exploding and killing you. The explosion radius of a bomb is quite large too, which means that you should have enough cover or space between you and the explosion radius.
