More about this game
Pixel Bubble Pop is an arcade puzzle game where you shoot colored bubbles to create matches of three or more. Your goal is to clear the board before the ceiling drops. Every five shots that fail to create a match cause the ceiling to drop by thirty-four pixels, pushing bubbles downward. As you progress, the number of bubble colors increases from four to eight, making matches harder to find. A run ends immediately if any bubble crosses the bottom danger line.
Tips
- Use the side walls to bounce your shots into hard-to-reach places. The dashed aim guide will show you exactly where your bubble will land after up to two wall bounces.
- Focus on cutting off large clusters from the ceiling. While popped bubbles score forty points each, dropped disconnected bubbles award seventy points each and clear the board much faster.
- Keep a close eye on the drop counter in the top left corner. Every five non-matching shots lowers the ceiling, so prioritize safe matches when your remaining shots are low.
Questions
How do I score more points?
Popped bubbles give forty points, but dropped bubbles give seventy points. Building a combo also adds a sixty-point bonus per consecutive match, so try to chain successful shots together.
Why did the ceiling drop?
The ceiling drops by thirty-four pixels after you take five shots without making a match. You can track your remaining safe shots in the top left corner of the screen.
Can I change the bubble I am shooting?
Yes, you can swap your current bubble with the next upcoming color by pressing the Swap button on the screen or by pressing the X key on your keyboard.
