Conventionally, bombs are associated with Stuff Blowing Up, but then there are special ones with different effects. Types include Smoke Bombs, Knock Out Bombs, Sticky Bombs, Stink Bombs, and Phlebotinum Bombs. Some Real Life examples include flashbangs, stinger grenades, fireworks (explode into pretty), and the aforementioned smoke grenades. Those who Throw Down the Bomblet may pack some of these in their arsenal. Compare and contrast with some Booby Traps. See also Grenade Tag and Trick Arrow. |

Bakuda of Worm has this as her Tinker specialization. Her least lethal variants kill off bugs, freeze the target area in time, and induce pain so intense it permanently renders victims less sensitive to pain. Her most lethal variants convert any material to crystal, disassemble people without killing them, and generate temporary black holes. | |

Dragon Age: In Dragon Age: Origins the grenades simply did area damage, but a spell called the Walking Bomb turns NPC's into potential explosives that can also infect others. The sequel-expansion pack-thing Dragon Age: Origins – Awakening added Dispel Grenades, which worked as a Power Nullifier against whatever active spells a mage had going. Dragon Age II presents a wider variety, with bombs that slow, stun and damage, or even revive fallen party members. A few rogue-specific skills are named and defined as bombs, a few more a labeled with a bomb icon and exhibit the same grenade range and visual effects. |

Team Fortress Classic had several cool grenades, unique to the classes, as well as the standard frag grenades that almost every class got: Heavy and Demoman: MIRV grenades. After it explodes, doing the damage of a standard frag, it disperses smaller grenades that proceed to detonate themselves for massive damage. Probably the strongest grenade in the game. Soldier: Nail grenades. When thrown, it'll hover up and start shooting nails in all directions. Ideal for taking out sentries or holding a choke point. Pyro: Napalm grenades. Similar to the MIRV grenade in principle, but instead of doing direct explosive damage (which only the initial explosion does), it scatters several small napalm fragments that light people on fire for damage over time. Useful for area denial and, in Fortress Forever, stacking multiple flame weapons for extra damage. Medic: Concussion grenades. No damage, but they cause the enemy to be stunned for a few seconds and mess up their arm and interface for a few seconds more, but they're most useful for "conc-jumping", since they propel the user MASSIVE lengths (without bringing them so high that they get fall damage) when primed and held until detonation. Spy: Gas grenades. They do a tiny bit of damage, but more importantly they actual cause the target to hallucinate, seeing explosions, grenades, and enemies that aren't there. Quite amusing, actually. Scout: Caltrops. It doesn't explode, but when thrown it'll release a bunch of caltrops that slow down and damage whoever steps on them. Useful for stopping pursuers. He also has the distinction of not getting frag grenades; instead, he gets the same concussion grenades that the Medic does, mostly for conc-jumping. Engineer: EMP grenades. Can potentially have the highest damage of all grenades in the game; throwing one causes whoever is hit by it to have all their ammo detonated at once, including shotgun shells and rockets. Damage spends on class; if thrown at a Scout, who only carries a few shotgun shells, it'll do next to no damage. If thrown at a Soldier, who carries a bucket load of shotgun shells for his Super Shotgun and a bunch of rockets for his Rocket Launcher, it'll be a One-Hit Kill. The only one who don't get unique grenades is the Sniper, but like the other classes (except the Scout), he does get standard frag grenades. |

The 2nd edition bombs can now be used by anyone, however Bomber Alchemists are the best users of it since they are the only class that specially has proficiency with bombsnote Although technically any class with martial weapon proficiency also has the same benefit, since bombs are treated as martial weapons otherwise, can learn feats that augment bombs, not to mention their Perpetual Infusion ability allowing them to make free bombs on demand. |

Dungeons & Dragons: The closest thing the game has to a standard grenade is alchemist's fire, a liquid stored in throwable bottles that ignites on exposure to oxygen. From there things get a little weird. Bottles of holy water can be thrown to do damage to undead, acid flasks... do acid damage, tanglefoot bags release an adhesive to slow opponents down, choking powder makes it hard to breathe, and thunderstones deafen the subject. The catchall term for these is "grenadelike weapons". Alchemist's fire and acid flasks are particularly useful in low-level parties for finishing off trolls, which will eventually regenerate from wounds inflicted by any other type of damage. For higher-level parties willing to abuse the rules for fun and profit, the ever-lovely explosive runes spell persists until it is set off due to being intended as a trap. It is also explicitly stated to go off if a dispel check is failed while attempting to erase or dispel it. As a corollary, you can also intentionally fail checks. Certain enterprising parties have been known to scribe hundreds of these spells over the course of arbitrarily-long periods of downtime and bundle them up into rather unconventional paper grenades. To use, simply lob a bundle or book of them at enemies, and set them off with a single intentionally-botched dispel magic spell to deliver the equivalent damage in pure concussive force damage of all of these runes going off all at once. Do not try to sucker your DM with this, however: equally beleaguered DMs have been known to rule that this will set off the first explosive rune so affected, which then shreds the others without setting off the expected chain reaction. |

Stargate SG-1: The Goa'uld have stun grenades, that give only a second or so of warning in the form of a whining noise before creating a massive flash that knocks everyone in a room unconscious. In Stargate Atlantis, the Wraith also used something similar. | |

Borderlands: Certain grenade mods qualify. They can range from the mundane (cluster bombs, mines, Sticky Bomb), to the weird (ones which fly into the air and blast massive amounts of a given element on anything below, teleporting grenades) to the completely insane (grenades which release particles which smash into enemies then return to you to restore health). | |

The Halo series has normal grenades used by space marines, while Covenant forces use sticky plasma grenades. Later games in the series include sticky shrapnel grenades, napalm grenades, grenades that project an aura that rapidly drains shields, and grenades that leave behind floating sparks that will explode if anyone walks into them. | |

Mass Effect 3 adds more Trick Bomb varieties; in addition to standard frag grenades, there are inferno grenades, biotic lift grenades, cluster grenades and sticky grenades. These are both powers and a limited resource, meaning any squad member can use them with no cooldown but they need to collect resupply caches to restock after a few uses. Also, unlike the last game, the only grenade launcher in the game (the M-37 Falcon) is classified as an assault rifle rather than a heavy weapon, meaning it can be armed with Incendiary Ammo, Warp Ammo, Disruptor Ammo, Cryo Ammo, and Armor Piercing Ammo. So, in addition to somehow using thermal clips as large projectile ammo, it can also launch grenades that electrocute people (disruptor) and grenades that snap-freeze targets (cryo). | |

Bomberman in general came to love this trope as the series progressed. The original series had remote bombs that were detonated manually instead of on a fuse, rubber bombs that bounced around when kicked or thrown, and spiked "piercing bombs" that blew right through every block in their blast range. Later games added elemental wind, water, electric, ice, and light bombs, turning normal bombs into fire-elemental ones. Still other games have included bait bombs, pile bombs, barrier bombs, salt bombs (for killing slugs and nothing else), bombs which curved left, right, or towards enemies when thrown, poison bombs, radio-controlled bombs, speed bombs, power bombs, dangerous bombs (which act like small nukes), and many more. | |

The Witcher contains five different types of bombs, manufactured using alchemy just like potions and blade coatings. The only one that acts even remotely like a traditional explosive is Dragon's Dream (releases a cloud of flammable gas that Geralt can detonate with the Igni sign). The other four bombs produce poison, evoke fear, stun, and blind, respectively. The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings adds a fragmentation bomb, an incendiary bomb, one that releases noxious gas, a light bomb (illuminates the area), and a psychoactive gas bomb. |

The dwarves of Deep Rock Galactic have some unusual grenades to help them combat the Glyphid swarms of Hoxxes IV. The Driller has a High-Explosive Grenade, a Neurotoxin Grenade that releases a cloud of flammable poison gas that the dwarves are thankfully immune to, and the Spring-Loaded Ripper, a self-prepared buzzsaw capable of crawling up cave walls and across ceilings, tearing through anything - ally or enemy - in its path. He also has disposable collapsing axes that give off a small shockwave when they hit. The Engineer can toss a L.U.R.E. hologram emitter that distracts enemies with the glowing image of a dancing dwarf, a Plasma Burster that unleashes four consecutive blasts of energy away from the point of impact, a Proximity Mine with multiple charges that don't all explode at once, or a grenade that explodes into a reprogrammed Shredder Storm that seeks out and dices enemies for a short period. The Gunner starts with a Sticky Grenade, but can swap it out for an Incendiary Grenade, Cluster Grenade, or a Tactical Leadburster that embeds itself into the point of impact and sprays bullets everywhere around it. The Scout's Inhibitor-Field Generator creates a sphere of energy that drastically slows all enemies moving through it, his Cryo Grenade temporarily freezes anything in its burst radius (with fatal results for flying enemies), or he can toss a Pheromone Canister that causes enemy creatures in the splash zone to go berserk and attack each other. He also has a boomerang that automatically chains between enemies in a large radius. |

In most games in the Atelier Series, the protagonist is an alchemist whose primary form of attack (other than their Magic Staff) will usually be throwing bombs that you create via Item Crafting. These come in a variety of flavors, including but DEFINITELY not limited to: Ice Bombs and Lightning Bombs to supplement the fire-elemental normal bombs, Crafts (improvised explosives made by stuffing spiky chestnuts and gunpowder into a bag; Atelier Totori has a Fish Craft which showers enemies in seafood), Meteors (which cause strange exploding items to fall from the sky over multiple turns), thrown exploding barrels, and the Dimension Bomb (which apparently travels through a fourth spatial dimension to bypass enemy defenses). | |

Tribes: Ascend has unique explosives for all of its nine classes. Perhaps the most notable is the Brute's Fractal Grenade, which levitates in the air for a few seconds after it hits the ground, firing powerful lasers that ricochet off walls in every direction. Also of note is the Pathfinder's Impact Nitron grenade, which does some damage but is mostly used because it knocks enemies back and forces them to drop the flag if they're carrying it. |

SCP: Secret Laboratory has two throwable SCP objects which can be found in the facility: SCP-018 is an anomalous toy rubber ball which bounces with 200% efficiency. Upon being thrown, it will bounce around the room, dealing damage on contact and eventually gaining enough velocity to break windows and even doors. 80 seconds after being thrown, 018 will exit the facility by exploding through a wall, injuring anyone nearby. SCP-2176 is a lightbulb which shatters when thrown (or 10 seconds after cracking from being dropped). Depending on circumstance, it will either blackout a room, turning off the lights and locking the doors shut, or it will prematurely end a blackout started by SCP-079, forcing the doors open. Any Tesla Gates in the room will also be temporarily disabled. |

In Kirby: Squeak Squad, after getting the Bomb Ability Scroll, the player can mix the Bomb Ability with Ice and Spark in the bubble inventory. These result in Ice Bomb, which freezes enemies, along with the Thunder Bomb, which explodes into sparks of electricity that move on the ground. Kirby Star Allies brings these back and adds a couple more: Bluster Bomb, which produces bombs that generate gusts of wind and can be used as makeshift balloons, and Splash Bomb, which produces bombs that explode into blobs of water. Marx's Jester Ball also functions like a bomb and can be augmented with elements, some of which will let him use one of the moves he used in his original boss fight. |

Mage: The Awakening: With Alchemy, a mage can create an explosive device that discharges a spell instead of a blast. Any Area of Effect spell works, so there can be bad-luck bombs, Time bombs, anti-gravity grenades, or almost anything else. | |

Filmation's Ghostbusters had "Zombie Bombs," which could turn people nearby into zombies when detonated. Scarechrome tried to use one against the Ghostbusters, but he caught his peg-leg in a small hole on the deck. Its only use was to set up Prime Evil's immortal line, "Did anyone ever tell you that you drive like a zombie?" | |

In Hogs of War, pigs promoted into the Medic class-line gain access to a Medicine Ball, which functions exactly like a grenade but releases pink healing gas instead of fiery explosive death. Espionage pigs also get a 'poison gas' grenade, which is pretty much Exactly What It Says on the Tin. | |

Left 4 Dead has the pipe bomb, an explosive canister with a fire alarm attached to it that attracts Infected to it before exploding and killing them all. Left 4 Dead 2 adds the bile bomb, a canister filled with Boomer bile that can be tossed at infected to get all the untouched common infected to chase after and attack them. | |

In Starship Troopers, Johnny Rico uses a device that shouts "I'm a thirty second bomb! I'm a thirty second bomb! Twenty-nine! Twenty-eight! ..." in the Skinny language to clear out one of their command bunkers. The vocal countdown is designed to create mayhem, but this also counts as a subversion, because the bomb is an actual explosive, blowing up when it reaches the end of the countdown. | |
