Gameplay

In each stage, players aim the cannon (helmed by Bubble Bobble's Bub and Bob) at the bottom of the screen, using it to shoot differently colored bubbles at a hanging arrangement of bubbles at the top of the screen in order to make them disappear within a time limit. Players must match three bubbles of the same color in order to get rid of them, with each stage being completed when all the bubbles have been cleared.[3]

The game also features a battle mode that pits players against another opponent. Additional stages from previous games are also available as paid downloadable content.[4]

Reception

The game received above-average reviews according to the review aggregation website Metacritic.[5]
