Bubble Shooter Game Includes Hints and Tips for Playing
Information provided by Disabled World - Published: 2010-02-01
One of the most popular and fun online games is the game of Bubble Shooter, an addictive, and sometimes frustrating game, that always has you returning for "just one more try."
The general concept of the Bubble Shooter game is to make combinations of 3 or more or the same colored bubbles disappear, or pop, by shooting them. The more of the same color bubbles you can shoot in the one go greatly increases your score.
Most Bubble shooter games do not have a time limit, but every so often, especially when you fail to pop a combination of bubbles, the rows of bubbles will drop down a level - and at higher levels in the game they may drop several rows at once.
The object of the game is to clear all the colored bubbles or balls from the screen. However in order to better your score in different games you may find you will need to try not to pop all the bubbles too quickly. Easier said than done, for you see, once you have managed to clear a particular color bubble (usually there are 6 colors) the rows of bubbles will drop down the screen several rows at once instead of a single row. You will need to be careful that for each shot you try not to miss popping any bubbles.
Bubble Shooter Tips:
Always check which color bubble you will be shooting next so you can plan ahead.
You can isolate a group of bubbles from the main group by shooting out bubbles above it. This makes it easier to get rid of more bubbles quicker. Bubbles popped by connecting with the same color equals 10 points a bubble, whereas bubbles popped by disconnecting them from the main group will give you 100 points per bubble.
In hard to reach shots you can bounce bubbles off the walls to get into those tight places. Bouncing the bubbles off the walls is like playing pool, the bubble will bounce off the wall at the same angle it hits it.
Keep an eye on the silver colored bubbles at the bottom of the screen. There are 5 to start with and each time you fail to burst a bubble you will lose one. When all 5 are gone all the bubbles will drop a level.
There are virtually two games in one:

The next step is to last as long as possible without the bubbles reaching the bottom of the play area OR clearing the screen of bubbles too quickly, or else you will not have a chance to build a higher score. So keep the game going or the game will end early and you will end up having a low score. It's sort of a juggling act deciding when you should try and get the Bubble Shooter game out.
