I also have the version for my iPhone, which I love even more than the one on my iPad because it is all about angles and spatial recognition. Great fun with both versions. ### 4/5 — Addicting but drains the battery *2022-10-27* This game is quite addicting. My only two suggestions would be: 1) Find a way to make it drain the battery less on my mobile devices. This game really uses a lot of power. Make sure to close it out completely when not playing it. 2) Make the standard game a bit more challenging, you almost never lose - maybe add difficulty levels?? ### 5/5 — Best. Healthy. Addiction!!! *2022-10-20* Like most all of their games, this Boy Howdy Bubble game is a blast! The ads are not invasive, and whether I want to play a quick game or listen to some podcast and play this while I’m listening, it always just fits in well. The customer service is flipping amazing! Apparently this is just a “Mom & Pop” company and these developers have it going on. So happy that they make such fun games— keep up the great work! ### 5/5 — A satisfying game I enjoy it so much *2022-07-21* I like this game enough that I’ve played over 21,000 levels good for a short break or a long one **Developer response:** Howdy! The only time you will see a full-page ad is if you tap the small ad at the bottom of the screen. We never use any pop-up ads or take you out of the game unless you tap that small ad. Please use the App Support link here or the Contact Us button in the app to email us and Julie will help you figure out what's going on for you. ### 5/5 — I Love the Variety of Choices *2021-11-16* With all of the new ways to play it’s a much more enjoyable game and nowhere near so frustrating. I hated getting to three digits and then having to start over. Congrats guys and gals. You did a bang up job with this one. ### 5/5 — Bubble Jewels 2 *2021-05-23, version 1.19* Fantastic time killer. ### 5/5 — Wonderful Game *2021-03-25* This is my go-to game for quick (or long) breaks, waiting in line, waiting on hold, waiting for whatever! Easy to play but challenging enough. The best thing has been the app’s customer support. They answer questions quickly, even the trivial ones. I had some sort of glitch on my phone which caused my classic game to zero out my 1.7 million points and 1,000+ levels. I wrote to the developers who responded in almost real-time with instructions, and they restored my point count within an hour. So, great customer service as well as really good game. ### 4/5 — Love It *2021-02-07, version 1.17* This is a great game, my only wish is that it would be great if you could end the current game and start from the beginning. ### 5/5 — Bubble jewels 2 *2020-11-16, version 1.17* I’ve been playing this game for years! I’m so addicted. There was another game that I miss a lot. It was friends with? Can’t remember but was great , developed by same company! ### 5/5 — Great skill game *2020-08-15* I’ve played HOURS (& years) playing this game of skill. Every game is a different ball layout. For all ages. LOVE IT 😊 ### 4/5 — Bubble Jewels 2 *2020-08-07* This is one of the games I play several times every night to wind down from the day's activities. ### 5/5 — Great Mindless Time Waster! *2020-07-21* It’s free! I have wasted countless hours playing it. I can play while listening to news casts or while listening to an audio book. ### 5/5 — Great fun to play *2020-06-11* I’m so impressed with all the games by Boy Howdy. They’re all free and you don’t have vast realms of advertisements to wait through. They also reply quickly to questions asked and comments made. A husband and wife team, I’m told. I wish them well. ### 4/5 — Fun game and good strategy *2020-03-25* I wasn’t sure at first if I’d like a shoot/bubble pop game, but this is really good, some puzzles you really have to strategize how to ricochet the bubbles to get them to the right place. It’s a fun challenge, not stressful, and I like the various modes, there’s something for everyone depending on your mood. Thanks for another great game! ### 5/5 — Just plain fun! *2020-02-18* I have other Boy Howdy games, and none of them that I have have disappointed. I have more involved games from others, but for a quick game, this one sort of ranks on the lower side of not-a-big-time-commitment. You can play as long or short as you want, with some nice alternative variations on it. AND YOU DON’T HAVE TO WADE THROUGH WRETCHED VIDEO ADS! That’s what we’re talking about! ### 5/5 — Fun *2020-01-23, version 1.14* Very relaxing to play ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — App went today from 4 stars to none *2022-05-18* This is the first review I’ve ever written. This game was fun until the pointer /shooter began sticking lately after years of smooth play. So it has suddenly become a game of luck or chance or owner interference instead of game of skill. Additionally, today the game began sending me out if the game to their advertisements suddenly many tunes during a game, sometimes after every move. Maybe it’s just been sold by the original creators to people who don’t care about the game, just getting players to their advertisers. I’m out of here now, it’s not fun or relaxing anymore; now it’s extremely stressful. ‘Bye. **Developer response:** Howdy! It sounds like you didn't see my email to you last week (check your spam folder in case it ended up there!) We'd love to help you fix your problem. Please use the App Support link here or the Contact Us button in the app to email us and I'll help you. --Julie ### 2/5 — Really Wanted to Love This… *2022-11-20* I love the game Treasure Jewels, so I was excited to try this game, but I was let down. On the surface, this looks like a good bubble shooter game, but it’s missing a few key features that many other games have. Being able to toggle between ball colors before shooting, for example. Without this feature at the end of a level, the player is forced to shoot the incorrect colored ball, and then has to clear *that* ball as well. This can go on for a disturbingly long time. Or having a guideline for when you bounce a ball off of the walls, so you can tell where your ball will land. Without this feature, the player ends up missing their mark quite frequently. The developers may need to try other bubble shooter games to see what I’m talking about. If these two things were fixed, this would be an awesome game! ### 2/5 — Magic ball *2020-09-07, version 1.16* Should be optional ### 2/5 — No Sound *2018-02-17, version 1.11* Was working great but now no sound ### 2/5 — same old pattern.....over and over *2017-12-08, version 1.11* No challenge just is the same pattern over and over. Not what I expected ### 2/5 — Bubble Jewels 2 *2017-08-29* This game is challenging and addicting. But, when I get into higher levels, the "shooter" freezes up, and when I finally get it working, it shoots 3-5 at random, not allowing me to play the rest of the level. I try again, and it all happens again. I play games to relax...NOT to get aggravated repeatedly. For this reason....I give it two stars instead of five. Also...STOP ASKING ME TO CONNECT WITH FB! If I wanted to do that, I would! I am deleting this game. Bet you won't even put this on the list of reviews. **Developer response:** Howdy! We'd love to help you fix the problem with the shooter freezing up. Please use the App Support link here or the Contact Us button in the app to email us and Julie will help you. Our game does not connect to Facebook and we do not ever ask players to connect to Facebook. If you are getting some kind of message about Facebook, we'll help you get to the bottom of that, too! ### 3/5 — Review *2019-07-11* I play several games; the ones from Boy Howdy are the most satisfying. This “shoot the bubbles” type of game has five different modes to keep it interesting. Not too easy, not set to where the player cannot win (as some games are). Like Goldilocks porridge, it’s “just right”. ### 3/5 — I’d give it 5-Star, but too many ads!!! *2018-04-06* Great game, but I’d pay for an upgrade to get rid of the annoying ads. ### 3/5 — Ads aaaarrrrrgggghhhh *2016-11-04* If I could get rid of the ads from the bottom it would be better ### 4/5 — Bubble Jewels *2025-09-28, version 1.30* Fun game to play. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — I love this! *2026-07-08* I love this game, because i can either mindlessly shoot balls, or more seriously aim and fire, and then track my ranking. I have had hours of fun, also find it useful to de-stress. ### 5/5 — Fun *2026-06-30* Great for when you are waiting on an appointment or anything else that has a few minutes of downtime. You can close the app and open it to the same game later. ### 5/5 — ADDICTIVE - MIND RELAXER *2026-04-08* This little game is the alternative to pencil tapping…if you need a distraction to ponder whatever is in the back (or forefront) of your daily grind…this is quite the antidote for stress. Also, a VERY responsive crew in the background that helps when your app goes splat! (Which only happened ONCE in years of enjoyment). Give it a try!! ### 5/5 — A satisfying game I enjoy it so much *2026-03-14* I like this game enough that I’ve played over 32,000 levels good for a short break or a long one, wife loves it too. **Developer response:** Howdy! The only time you will see a full-page ad is if you tap the small ad at the bottom of the screen. We never use any pop-up ads or take you out of the game unless you tap that small ad. Please use the App Support link here or the Contact Us button in the app to email us and Julie will help you figure out what's going on for you. ### 5/5 — Wonderful Game and Developers *2025-11-13* I play daily, and the lack of ads (besides small ones at the bottom of the screen) mixed with the satisfying game play makes this a daily go to for me. I had a problem with a bug that caused my score to disappear, and I had the best customer service experience. They responded so quickly and politely and fixed my problem right away. Highly recommend!! ### 5/5 — FUN NOT TOO CHALLENGING *2025-10-12* I finally decided to get this app a few months ago.I traveled a lot this summer and it was nice to pick up with this game it was a nice challenge and then also leaving to app for a while and still having my progress and it was so much fun to play being in a car for a 2 day trip in the car ### 5/5 — So much fun *2025-07-19* My mom was on her phone playing a game I had no idea what is was she showed me it and I loved it so I got it myself it is perfect there is challenge and fun perfect game for boredom ### 5/5 — Bubble *2023-10-25, version 1.26* Enjoyable ### 5/5 — Fantastic Game! *2023-02-25, version 1.23* This game adds so many twists to the original one that are so much fun! It is a must play game! ### 5/5 — Fun Game, one drawback *2023-01-13* The game crashes after playing several games other than that it is still a fun game. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
