Bomb Farm Guides

This hub is the map of every Bomb Farm guide on the wiki. The game launched on Steam on 28 August 2026 as a free-to-play idle RPG from Stream On. You pin a small window over the desktop, send miners and bombers across a grid, and come back to gold, sealed drops, and another stage tick on the Map.

If you just installed the client, start with Getting Started. That page covers the BombFarm account link, the eight bottom tabs, and the first Easy clear in Dawn Quarry. After that, How to Play explains the actual loop: Battle while a squad has energy, rest them in House, and swap one of the three teams so the mine does not sit idle.

What these guides answer

Players search Bomb Farm for a handful of jobs, and each job has a page:

• How to play the overlay client and what each tab is for — How to Play and Controls.
• How to rotate energy, recovery speed, and hero slots — Energy and Team Rotation.
• How to forge, reveal sealed drops, and chase +15 — Gear and Ritual.
• How to spend the account-wide tree — Skill Tree.
• How the five worlds and five difficulties actually unlock — Progression Walkthrough.
• How the Steam Community Market fits a single-player idle game — Steam Market.

The Heroes Hub and the Tier List Hub sit beside this category. Use them when you are choosing roles (Attacker, Support, Collector, Specialist) instead of learning a menu.

Read this before you chase Inferno

Bomb Farm looks simple because Battle is automated. The stall points are not mechanical skill. They are House capacity, Ritual investment, and whether you raised difficulty before the squad could break the next rock layer. Official store copy lists five difficulties, five worlds, and 600 stages. The Map UI names the worlds Dawn Quarry, Deep Roots, Deep Glacier, Iron Depths, and Crystal Abyss, and it stars difficulties Easy, Normal, Hard, Very Hard, and Inferno. Achievements exist for clearing each of those difficulties.

Treat Easy as a teaching track. Finish Dawn Quarry, fill Uncommon capsules in House, and only then open Normal. The squad planner is a checklist for that habit. The review explains why launch-week players compare the overlay to older taskbar idlers, and why that comparison should not turn into a rush.

How we keep guides honest

This is an unofficial fan wiki. Numbers that are not on the Steam page or readable in the live UI are marked as observations, not patch notes. We do not invent drop rates, exact energy timers, or hero names the client has not shown. When Stream On ships a season or a new character, the Updates Hub is the place that absorbs it.

Steam lists Bomb Farm as single-player. Other people enter the game through the Market, not through shared Battle instances. If a page on this site ever sounds like shared Battle, that is a bug — file it against the facts we actually published.

Suggested reading order

1. Getting Started — install, account, first Easy clear.
2. How to Play — the daily loop.
3. Controls — mouse-only, keyboard-only, pin, overlay.
4. Progression — worlds, stage bars, difficulty stars.
5. Gear and Skill Tree — power that is not a new hero.
6. Market — listing extras without breaking your own build.

When a guide and a hero page disagree, trust the page that cites a tab you can open. Ritual, House, Map, and Battle are the four rooms that settle most arguments.

Related tools

The system requirements page is for anyone on integrated graphics or a small SSD. Bomb Farm asks for Windows 10/11 64-bit, 4 GB RAM minimum, about 1 GB of disk, and a broadband link because the BombFarm account is online. The client is built in Godot and is light enough that launch reviews call it well optimized — still check the page if you plan to leave it pinned for hours.

Use this hub as a table of contents, not as the last page you read. Every article below is written to stand alone and to send you to a sibling when the next decision is in another tab.
