POP88 is a sheet of bubbles that never runs out. It is not a game to win; it is here to be popped.
There is no score, ranking, clear condition, or account. You cannot get better at it or lose. You may simply pop bubbles for as long as it suits you.

There are two ways to do it.

Realistic mode pops a bubble only when you press firmly into it. It is for taking them one at a time, and allowing a little room between each decision.

Exhilarating mode asks for that firm press only on the first bubble. Once it gives, every bubble you drag across pops in turn until you lift your finger. On brisk days, the sheet is happy to keep up with you.

The sheet never runs out. Nobody has reached its last bubble. Stop wherever you are and come back whenever you like.

Your pop count and times remain only on your device. They are not sent anywhere, and there is no account. Delete the app and the record is deleted with it.

Advertisements are shown. POP88 Pro is a one-time purchase, not a subscription. It removes advertisements and unlocks fast scrolling and delegation.

While POP88 is open, delegation lets an attendant pop bubbles one at a time. It works only in Realistic mode. The methodical attendant works to the end of each row and back again. The efficient one starts with nearby bubbles; dense patches go quickly, sparse ones less so. The messy one prefers distant bubbles. The absent-minded one pops nearby for a while, pauses, and eventually resumes. The artistic one leaves the sheet untidy to draw hearts, and occasionally words. The timekeeper writes the current time in bubbles and begins the next beside it, using a little over forty bubbles per display; it is suited to a tablet on a stand or a shop display.

The artistic attendant requires Love, mixed in, an additional purchase available after POP88 Pro. About one bubble in every 1,600 is heart-shaped and pops with a slightly lighter sound.

POP is the sound a bubble makes when it goes. Turn an 8 sideways and it becomes infinity; two 8s also make four round openings that resemble bubbles in a row. It is read “pop eighty-eight.” It is not a count.
