Bubble Breaker
How Bubble Breaker works
Bubble Breaker is easy to learn, yet difficult to master. The objective is to align similar bubbles to form large
blocks of bubbles before bursting them. The more bubbles you have in the block before they’re burst, the
more points you collect.
To burst a bubble, it must be connected to other similar bubbles on the playing board. If you press a bubble
that’s connected, the connected bubbles are highlighted and a text bubble pops up, showing how many
points the block is worth. To burst the bubbles, you press the selection again.
The Breaker Bonus
If you manage to leave fewer than five bubbles on the board, you’ll be rewarded with extra points at the end
of the game.

• Play Sounds: Turns the game sounds on or off.
• Guest Mode: Enables guests to play without affecting the statistics.
• Style: Changes the style for new games as follows:
• Standard: The default mode of play where there is a set number of bubbles that will not increase.
• Continuous: Whenever a vertical set of bubbles has been burst and the remaining bubbles have
shifted over to the right, a new, randomly selected column of bubbles will pop up on the left,
so the game can last longer.
• Shifter: When a set of bubbles has been burst, all remaining bubbles to the top and left will shift down
and to the right.
• MegaShift: A combination of the shifter and continuous styles, where bubbles will shift down and to
the right while empty columns will fill on the left.
• Breakers: Changes the colour of the bubbles from Colourful to Greyscale.
