Bubblee Pop!
falling colorful marbles
Bubblees float in the sky above planets; each player has such a planet for up to 20 Bubblees. At the start each player puts three black Bubblees on his planet and the sky is studded with Bubblees, according to a template or at your choice.
In your turn, you first replenish the sky and can then swap two adjacent Bubblees in a row or column. Then you choose two horizontally or vertically adjacent Bubblees and have them fall to your planet. If this results in an alignment of three or more Bubblees of the same color, either horizontally or vertically, you move those Bubblees to your scoring zone, for one point each. Bubblees of the same color adjacent to this trio in rows or columns, are also transferred to your scoring zone.
Removing Bubblees to the scoring zone triggers the special ability of the color, you decide if you want to use it: Red – switch Bubblees, purple – send a Bubblee from your planet to the opposing planet, blue – send a Bubblee from the sky to the opposing planet, green – switch two Bubblees on your planet, yellow – transfer a free Bubblee to the scoring zone, black – those Bubblees can only be removed by the abilities of other Bubblees. Bubblees above removed Bubblees slide down. When the sky cannot be replenished, you win with most points. In the solitaire version, you must complete 20 different levels by clearing the opposite planet of all but the black Bubblees.
A well-made interpretation of a Smart device game, individual abilities of colors introduce quite some tactic, but if you want you can enjoy the thrilling family fun also without the abilities. And the solo version offers lovely solitaire entertainment.
