When a decision goes wrong, compare it with the common mistake described below. Start again only when you intend to leave the current round. Keep the objective visible.
The objective of a round
Clear the hanging bubbles before they reach the lower boundary. The feedback beside the game helps you follow the round. Take a moment to understand the current position.
Making your moves
- Aim and fire.
- Attach bubbles to the cluster.
- Groups of three or more equal colours disappear.
- Floating groups drop; five misses lower the ceiling.
The controls to know
Pointer/touch aim, angle controls and Fire. On a smaller screen, keep the active part of the board within view. A new-round button replaces the current round.
Try this example
Removing one support can drop a larger mixed-colour group below it. Focus on why the action is allowed, not only its outcome. Take a moment to compare.
A common point of confusion
Contact with a different colour is not a match. A different version of the game may use a different rule. Locate the buttons and input area before beginning a long round. Use the on-screen labels to avoid an accidental restart.
