It is a very funny game in a cartoon style with bright-colored bubbles, bubble-faces and tons of bonuses.

The task of the player is to remove all the bubbles from the game field by shooting at them.

Smiling Bubbles are not only chatting and laughing, entertaining you but also give you a chance to improve your skills - they are clever and cunning - you'll see. Go ahead!

Game Rules

GAME RULES

The goal of the game is to remove all the bubbles from the board and to get as many points as possible. Just shoot at them with bubbles that appear at the bottom. Point your mouse to the spot on the board you want the next bubble to go to and click to shoot. If there are three or more bubbles of the same color clustered together, they will all explode.

The more bubbles you blow up with a single shot, the more points you get. Keep in mind that the less number of shots you make - the more points you get. Besides, if any bubbles fall apart from the rest they will explode too. You should try to separate bubbles in such a way because in this case your score increases tenfold.

The string of squares at the bottom of the window shows the number of unsuccessful attempts left before new bubbles come to the board. Try to blow up all the bubbles of same color and they will not appear in this game anymore. As soon as you do this you will get a bonus, but new bubbles will be added to the board to keep balance. The fewer colors remain in play, the more lines will be added after every miss.

There are two containers at the right side of the board. The first contains valid bonuses, the second covered container shows the next bubble to come.

There are two game modes: Strategy and Arcade. In Strategy mode some new balls appear after a certain number of unseccessful shots, while in Arcade mode this happens after a certain period of time.

The following features are present in the registered version:

* you can save and quit the game at any moment
* the pop-up window does not bother you any more
* the table with best scores can be saved
* you can pick any skill level

It is possible to explode bubbles matching either by color or by faces (if there are three or more matching bubbles)

* * * Bonuses

Add color - I will explode with any color and add the color that is absent at the board now. That is for you not to relax. If you want me not to add the color make me fall off.

Superman - I will explode all bubbles on my way except bombs Bomb - I will explode all my surrounding but a little later Dyer - I will re-dye all bubbles I touch into my color.

Bomb - I will explode all my surrounding but a little later

Dyer - I will re-dye all bubbles I touch into my color

Black bubble - nothing can tamper with me.

Double the score - you will gain twice as many points within several moves.

Quadruple the score - you will gain four times more points within several moves.

Destroyer of separated bubbles - I explode all the bubbles that are not the parts of a group.

Color Destroyer - I explode all the bubbles of my color.


That's all, folks! Good luck!

The game runs on major Linus flavors (RedHat, Debian, Mandrake, SuSE, Slackware and others)
