🫧 Bubbles
← All gamesPlay Bubbles online for free — a classic arcade shooter in the spirit of the 1990s coin-ops. A wall of coloured bubbles hangs from the top of the board and you aim a cannon from the bottom: a dotted guide line shows the flight path, including one wall bounce. Hit a cluster of three or more bubbles of the same colour and they pop — and anything left hanging without a connection to the ceiling drops for bonus points. Every few shots the ceiling adds a new row, and over time it does so more and more often. Clearing the entire board earns a +1000 bonus and the next level. The next-bubble preview and the swap button help you plan your shots. Your best score is saved in your browser.
How to play
- Aim with the mouse or by dragging a finger across the board — the dotted line shows the flight path with one wall bounce. Fire with a click, a finger release or the space bar. The ← → arrow keys aim too.
- The bubble bounces off the side walls and snaps to the nearest free cell when it touches other bubbles or the ceiling.
- A cluster of 3 or more bubbles of the same colour pops (+10 pts each). Anything left disconnected from the ceiling drops (+20 pts each) — shooting out "hanging" clusters is the key to high scores.
- You can see the next bubble in the preview — the 🔄 Swap button (or the S key) exchanges it with the current one. Only colours still present on the board are loaded into the cannon.
- Every few shots the ceiling adds a new row at the top, and it does so more often as time passes. The game ends when the bubbles cross the bottom line.
- Clearing the entire board earns a +1000 point bonus and a fresh board on the next level. Pause with P or Esc.
