Read before your next round of Bubble Shooter

Try Bubble Shooter at your own pace and keep its objective in view. Clear the hanging bubbles before they reach the lower boundary. Keep the game area visible while you use its controls. Treat the first round as a chance to learn the controls. Use the example below to understand a decision.

Take a closer look while playing

Choose one rule to keep in mind for this round. Apply it consistently rather than guessing what another version might allow. Make the next step deliberately.

The challenge in front of you

Clear the hanging bubbles before they reach the lower boundary. Use the instructions to see which actions move you towards it. Check the rules when you are unsure.

From the start of a round

  1. Aim and fire.
  2. Attach bubbles to the cluster.
  3. Groups of three or more equal colours disappear.
  4. Floating groups drop; five misses lower the ceiling.

Keyboard and screen controls

Pointer/touch aim, angle controls and Fire. On a smaller screen, keep the active part of the board within view. Make sure you are interacting with the game rather than the surrounding page.

Work through an example

Removing one support can drop a larger mixed-colour group below it. Your next round may have a different position, so inspect it before acting. Keep the game’s format in mind.

Where a round can go wrong

Contact with a different colour is not a match. Check the rule before repeating the action. Take enough time to read a new position. If a game has a timer, learn its controls first rather than searching for them during the round.
