Bubbles is an action puzzle game where the goal is to fill the opponent's screen with bubbles. You launch bubbles from a cannon and have them stick in a hexagonal grid. If three or more bubbles of the same colour wind up adjacent, they burst. Any bubbles hanging from them fall down and are sent as penalty bubbles to your opponent. Bubbles that are connected to the ceiling can never fall. When you have fired ten bubbles, your bubbles move down a row and a new row of bubbles with random colour appear above them.
Controls (keys)
Press the left and right keys to tilt the cannon left and right respectively. To launch a bubble, press the up or action key.
Controls (touch screen)
Press to the left and right of the cannon to tilt it left and right respectively. To launch a bubble, press below the cannon.
How to win
You win by having your opponent’s bubbles dropping below the marked line of the playfield. Therefore, making it harder for your opponent is crucial as this is the only way for you to win (unless your opponent happens to lose by his/her own fault). Try to send random penalty bubbles as often as you can to fill your opponent’s playfield. Remember, you only send bubbles hanging from the ones bursting.
Time limits
There is a maximum game session time limit of 15 minutes. If this limit is exceeded, the winner is calculated as follows; each player gets 1 point for every bubble launched and 10 points for every set of penalty bubbles sent to the other player. The player with the highest total score wins. If both players have the same score, the player who scored the last point wins.
