Bubble Shooter

Classic match-3 bubbles. Clear the level before any bubble crosses the bottom line.

About Bubble Shooter

Bubble Shooter is the classic arcade puzzle. You aim a launcher at a ceiling of coloured bubbles and clear them by matching three or more of the same colour. The level is lost if a bubble crosses the bottom line. It takes one finger to play, and it is laid out for a tall screen.

This version has a detail worth knowing. The ceiling moves down after every five shots, so slow play gets punished, and bubbles that drop score more than bubbles you pop directly: 20 points against 15.

How to play

  1. Aim the launcher by moving your mouse or finger.
  2. Release to shoot. The bubble sticks where it lands.
  3. Connect three or more bubbles of the same colour to pop them.
  4. Any bubbles left hanging with nothing to hold them will fall.
  5. Clear every bubble before any of them crosses the bottom line.

These are the usual rules. If the game shows you something different on screen, follow the game.

Tips

  • Hit the bubbles near the top of a cluster. Pop the anchors and everything below will fall, and falling bubbles are worth more.
  • Bounce shots off the side walls to reach gaps you cannot hit directly.
  • Count your shots. The ceiling drops every five, so make your bigger moves before it does.
  • Do not stack single colours at the edges. Those spots are hard to reach later.

Questions about Bubble Shooter

How many bubbles do I need to match?

Three or more of the same colour.

Why did the bubbles move down?

The ceiling lowers after every five shots, which pushes everything closer to your launcher.
