Kaboom! is een actiespel ontworpen door en ontwikkeld en uitgegeven door Activision. Het spel werd in 1981 uitgebracht voor de Atari 2600 en in 1983 voor de Atari 5200 en Atari 8 bit-familie. Het spel zou initieel uitkomen voor de Atari 2600. Echter wegens hoge verkoopcijfers, die één miljoen overschreden, koos Activision ervoor om het spel ook naar andere consoles te porten.
