How to play Bubble Shooter

How to play

Bubble Shooter is the classic aim-and-match arcade puzzler. A wall of colorful bubbles hangs from the top of the screen, and your shooter sits at the bottom loaded with the next bubble. Move your mouse or finger to aim the arrow, then click, tap, or press Space to fire the bubble upward. When your bubble lands touching two or more bubbles of the same color — making a connected group of three or more — the whole group bursts. Even better, any bubbles left hanging with no connection to the ceiling drop away for fat bonus points. Every twenty seconds a fresh row pushes the wall downward, so the pressure never stops: if any bubble crosses the red danger line near your shooter, the game is over.

Controls

Mouse: move to aim, click to shoot. Touch: drag to aim, lift your finger to shoot. Keyboard: Left and Right arrows fine-tune your aim, Space fires. Click the Start Shooting button to begin, and Play Again after the wall crosses the line. Bubbles bounce off the side walls, so bank shots around obstacles are absolutely on the table.

Tips

Always aim for the biggest same-color cluster — clearing it may strand a whole section above, and orphan drops pay 25 points each. Use wall bounces to tuck bubbles into tight pockets behind other colors. Watch the preview bubble next to your shooter and plan two shots ahead. When the wall gets low, stop chasing risky matches and focus on clearing the lowest-hanging bubbles first to buy breathing room before the next row drops.

Scoring

Every bubble in a popped group earns 12 points, and every orphan bubble that drops because it lost its ceiling connection earns 25 points. There is no per-shot penalty, so aggressive play is rewarded — but remember that a new row advances every twenty seconds, turning patience into danger. Your best score is saved in the score bar as the record to beat.
