What is Bubble Shooter?

Bubble Shooter is a 2D puzzle game in which you aim a launcher at the bottom of the screen and fire colored bubbles into a hanging cluster. Connect three or more of the same color to pop them, and any bubbles left unattached fall too. Each level gives you a limited number of shots, the cluster creeps downward when you keep missing, and clearing every bubble moves you to the next level.

How a level plays out

You see a grid of bubbles hanging from the top, a launcher at the bottom center and the next bubble beside it. Aim, fire, and the bubble sticks where it lands. If it joins at least two bubbles of its color, the whole group pops, and anything no longer attached to the top falls away for extra points. Miss, and you edge closer to a push-down that adds a new row. The AMMO counter shows shots left and the PUSH IN counter shows how many non-popping shots remain before the next row appears.

How to play

  1. Press PLAY, then move the pointer (or drag on a touch screen) to aim the launcher.
  2. Release or click to shoot. The bubble flies in a straight line and sticks to the first bubble or the ceiling it meets.
  3. Match three or more bubbles of the same color to pop them. Bubbles cut off from the top fall automatically.
  4. Tap the next bubble beside the launcher to swap it with the one you are about to fire.
  5. Clear every bubble to finish the level. Run out of shots, or let bubbles reach the bottom line, and the game is over.

Bubbles and scoring

  • Levels one and two use four colors, levels three and four use five, and from level five there are six.
  • A shot that pops a group scores 10 points per bubble times your combo, and bubbles that fall free score 15 each times your combo. The combo rises with each consecutive popping shot and resets after a miss.
  • Special bubbles appear automatically: a rainbow bubble every 15th shot, a fire bubble every 20th and a bomb every 25th.
  • Rainbow takes the color of a neighboring bubble, fire burns a line through the cluster along its path, and the bomb clears the bubbles around where it hits.
  • Shots left at the end of a level add 50 points each, and your high score and level are saved on this device.

Tips

  • Look for bubbles that hold up large clumps. Popping a single supporting bubble can drop a whole section for a big combo.
  • Watch the PUSH IN counter. When it reaches 1, a miss will add a new row, so prioritize a safe popping shot.
  • Save the swap for when the bubble you hold has no good target but the next one does.
  • Bank your special bubbles for crowded areas near the bottom line rather than using them on an easy shot.

Bubble Shooter FAQ

How many bubbles do I need to match?

Three or more connected bubbles of the same color pop together.

What happens when I run out of shots?

The game ends and the final score is shown. Each level starts with a fixed number of shots that gets smaller as levels rise, down to 15.

What does PUSH IN mean?

It counts the non-popping shots left before a new row is added at the top, which pushes the whole cluster down. A shot that pops bubbles resets the counter.

What do the special bubbles do?

A rainbow bubble copies the color of a neighbor, fire clears a line of bubbles, and a bomb clears the bubbles around its impact.

Is my progress saved?

Your high score and current level are saved in this browser on this device.

Can I play with a keyboard?

The game responds to mouse and touch only. Keyboard keys do not aim or shoot.
