An introduction to playing Bubble Shooter
Bring your attention to one round of Bubble Shooter. Clear the hanging bubbles before they reach the lower boundary. Check the relevant rule before repeating a move. Make your first input carefully and watch the result. Look at what changes after your first action.
Original hexagonal matching board and bouncing projectiles.
Something to practise
Read one step at a time and try it on the playing area. Match the instruction to the control you use. Refer to the controls when needed.
Understand the aim
Clear the hanging bubbles before they reach the lower boundary. An attractive position is not enough unless the goal is met. Try to explain the aim in your own words.
Start here and follow along
- Aim and fire.
- Attach bubbles to the cluster.
- Groups of three or more equal colours disappear.
- Floating groups drop; five misses lower the ceiling.
How to interact with the game
Pointer/touch aim, angle controls and Fire. Read a button’s label before selecting it. Look at the feedback after the action.
See the idea in action
Removing one support can drop a larger mixed-colour group below it. Use the example as a guide rather than a substitute for reading your board. Read the matching step again.
An important reminder
Contact with a different colour is not a match. Compare the situation with the worked example. Choose one rule to keep in mind for this round. Apply it consistently rather than guessing what another version might allow.
