Do you remember as a kid how you used to make block towers just so that you could see them fall down, crashing to the ground? Boom Blox is just like a set of those wooden blocks, only in video game form.

Comments:
the original game emphasized careful Jenga-style block removal, Boom Blox Bash Party favors more destructive variations, which is great because they're a lot more fun.
