Bubble Shooter: from controls to your first round
Choose a round of Bubble Shooter and settle into its rules. 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. Use the example below to understand a decision.
Original hexagonal matching board and bouncing projectiles.
Give this approach a try
Read one step at a time and try it on the playing area. Match the instruction to the control you use. Make the next step deliberately.
What counts as success
Clear the hanging bubbles before they reach the lower boundary. Read that aim before choosing your first action. The example below illustrates a decision.
Step by step
- Aim and fire.
- Attach bubbles to the cluster.
- Groups of three or more equal colours disappear.
- 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. Use one clear input at a time.
Work through an example
Removing one support can drop a larger mixed-colour group below it. Your next round may have a different position, so inspect it before acting. Notice the change in the playing area.
An important reminder
Contact with a different colour is not a match. Take a moment to reassess the position before continuing. Compare the worked example with your own position. Use the reasoning, not an answer copied from a different board.
