Ratings and reviews

Great port of the original. I've played it on and off since discovering it on LInux, and the translation to a touch interface is mostly working well. The way it jumps back into a retry if you tap after losing could stand to be changed to a confirmation dialog, and pausing is a bit of a mystery. What is even better than any other version on any other platform I'm aware of is that this version is accessible - the color bubbles also have geometric shapes to identify them. I don't have a device to try it, but you should be able to play this on a monochromatic screen. The app also appears to be the most stable version of the game ever.

This game is fun. It could use a graphics update but I know it's an old game and it's forgiveable not having to deal with annoying ads and micro transactions. The top two rows aren't playable it looks like so you have to wait for them to drop a little for them to count. I get mild anxiety when it's getting close to the bottom and I'm frantically shooting bubbles trying to get a green one or trying to get into a crevice only to have it get caught at the bottom. But it's pretty addictive.

It's free and decent given the price. My biggest complaint would be that the end credits scroll at an agonisingly slow pace. Sometimes the RNG is very unfair and you have to save and/or restart a level several times to get the right coloured bubbles for a good run. It's a good timewaster for what it is.
