Loosely based on The Sims, Bumper Blast asks you to "tag" as many of the Sims as you can in each level. This is done by hitting a same-colored Sim with the ball, which also causes all nearby Sims of the same color to be tagged as well, and the Sim that was hit to move. If all bumpers of the same color are tagged, they turn into completed Sim Bumpers, which reflect shots instead of catching them. Each level has a maximum number of shots. While not all Sims need to be tagged, tagging most of them will earn Bronze, Silver and Gold medals, with a diamond if you do manage to tag every last one.

Levels can feature blockers, which need to be hit once or more to disappear, boosts, which change the way the ball works, portals, which teleport shots and Sims, undecided Sims, which need a nearby Sim to be hit before they turn into regular Sims, and more. There are 120 levels in all, which can be replayed at any time to get a higher score, or tag more Sims. There's also a quick-play mode, which lets you replay levels with unlimited shots, or try levels that aren't in the campaign mode.
