An introduction to playing Bubble Shooter

Use a short break to learn the rhythm of Bubble Shooter. Clear the hanging bubbles before they reach the lower boundary. Choose a clear next step rather than rushing through the instructions. Treat the first round as a chance to learn the controls. Check the relevant rule before repeating a move.

Original hexagonal matching board and bouncing projectiles.

Build familiarity through play

Keep the stated aim separate from side details such as animation or appearance. Progress is measured by the game’s own completion or scoring rules. Make the next step deliberately.

The objective of a round

Clear the hanging bubbles before they reach the lower boundary. An attractive position is not enough unless the goal is met. Keep the controls in easy reach.

Making your moves

  1. Aim and fire.
  2. Attach bubbles to the cluster.
  3. Groups of three or more equal colours disappear.
  4. Floating groups drop; five misses lower the ceiling.

Making selections and moves

Pointer/touch aim, angle controls and Fire. On a smaller screen, keep the active part of the board within view. Read the example below alongside these instructions.

An example before you play

Removing one support can drop a larger mixed-colour group below it. Compare this with the rule that governs the move. Look for the relevant detail.

A mistake to avoid

Contact with a different colour is not a match. A different version of the game may use a different rule. Take enough time to read a new position. If a game has a timer, learn its controls first rather than searching for them during the round.
