### 4/5 — A great stress reliever

*2023-09-01, version 1.48*

I did not realize, at first, that there could be some subtle strategies involved. That was a pleasant discovery.
Great stuff.  🏆

### 5/5 — A+ Game

*2023-01-17, version 1.46*

Love this game!! Is totally addictive!

### 5/5 — Bubble fun

*2022-12-09, version 1.46*

I enjoy this game daily.

### 5/5 — Bubble

*2022-10-27, version 1.45*

I enjoy playing this challenge.

### 3/5 — Best of the worst, worst of the best

*2022-09-12*

I LOVE bubble pop games. I LOVE Boy Howdy as they’re always free and usually perfect. This one’s the exception. There’s no option for angle shooting and sometimes the aim is off (no, it’s not me). So I unfortunately only give this a 3 star rating.

### 5/5 — Geometry review

*2022-07-04, version 1.45*

Great game for practicing geometric angles! Addicting!

### 5/5 — Great game

*2022-04-22, version 1.45*

Have been enjoying this relaxing yet challenging game for awhile now, love it!

### 5/5 — Bubble Jewels

*2022-01-28, version 1.45*

This game is brilliant, addictive yet calming and surprisingly rewarding as you advance through the levels.
I must add that the back up I received from Julie at Boy Howdy Technology was over and above the call of duty.
To cut a long story short, I had amassed a score of over 7 million over months of playing and my wife, one evening decided to play and deleted my ongoing game, to say I was disappointed Is like saying 10 Downing Street is the new Wetherspoons, anyway through a series of Emails Julie somehow got my score reinstated and I cancelled the divorce.

### 5/5 — Fun

*2022-01-27, version 1.45*

Great fun trying to calculate where the balls will land

### 2/5 — Fun Game Bad in app Advertising

*2021-12-03, version 1.45*

Fun game, and used to enjoy playing. One Caveat that is very annoying is the fact it will take me out of the game to the internet to Amazon and other advertisements. At inopportune times it leaves the game app and goes to an advertisement web page. It is very frustrating. If you need the money from a free game do it upfront not in the middle of a game or right when making shots. It’s disconcerting and annoying to say the least.

### 3/5 — Boring game

*2021-10-27, version 1.45*

Not a challenging game!

### 5/5 — Dementia

*2021-09-28*

My father in law is in the middle stages of dementia. He would stare at the floor for hours with no joy in his life. I was playing this game and decided to show it to him. He is not a master player as the game is more challenging than that. But he gets great enjoyment out of lining up the colored bubbles and seeing them drop off. Each person can play this game for different reasons.

### 5/5 — Bubble Jewel

*2021-09-18*

It is fun to play. You can pick what level you want. Each level is had to do. But that is the fun of it to Master that level.

### 5/5 — Very relaxing

*2021-07-28, version 1.45*

It id not much of a challenge, but that’s sometimes what I need.

### 5/5 — Fun game, owners responsive

*2021-06-14*

When I’ve had questions or accidentally messed my game up the owners have been responsive, quick, helpful. It’s my go to game.

### 5/5 — Ms. Dee

*2020-10-28*

When you get to a certain level and loose, you go right back to starting  over again.. it becomes boring. You should start back at the level you lost to.  Would be more interesting!

**Developer response:** Howdy! Try Endless Mode in our newer Bubble Jewels 2 game https://apps.apple.com/us/app/bubble-jewels-2/id715165066  In Endless Mode you can keep climbing levels even if you don't pass on the first try!

### 5/5 — !Terrific Bubble Shooter+CustomerSupport!

*2020-08-27*

It seems like all bubble shooter games are the same; not this one! Try it—it’s fun and always free.
The engine that Boy Howdy TechLLC developed is SO different.  Instead of just massing large quantities of bubbles, it takes thought. It’s still relaxing enough that I use it at night to chill. 
They have the best customer support also! A phone update caused me to lose my levels. I contacted BoyHowdy and Julie, one of the developers, sent me a wonderful email on how to reset it after I sent her screenshots of the problem. I mean right away! I was pleasantly surprised, thank you Julie!!
I have several other of their games and they’re all just as fun. :-) Lyn

### 4/5 — Issues

*2020-07-28*

Recently the game has started bogging down to the point that there are as many as 4 seconds from the time I shoot to the time the bubble is released.  It seems to be in direct correlation to the adds at the bottom.  If they are your ads, there seems to be no problem.  Other ads start the process.  I have no issues with other games and I have no ad blocks in place. I have a score going on 3 million and would hate to delete the game.  I love it.

### 4/5 — Bubbles Jewels

*2020-07-14*

It is a super game i love it very much it’s been years probably 5 years when i started playing it i reached over 45 milion scores but for a little mistake i lost them i need to have my score back plz 🙏

**Developer response:** Howdy! We'd love to help you fix this problem. Please use the App Support link here or the Contact Us button in the app to email us and Julie will help you.

### 1/5 — Not happy

*2020-06-30, version 1.42*

I’ve been playing for awhile and been enjoying the game. Did the latest update and my game is wiped out to the beginning. I am beyond upset. I was in 1,500 range. I do not want to start over. please restore my game

### 1/5 — Freeze

*2017-04-19, version 1.34*

A few days ago I did the update and since that the game keep freezing up. Please fix this

### 1/5 — Дрянная

*2016-08-24*

Задумка игры хорошая но уровни одни и те-же, а я дошёл до 330 уровня. Поэтому одна звезда

### 1/5 — Don't bother

*2014-08-04, version 1.22*

They're loser tone is infuriating, and the antagonist is poorly placed.

### 1/5 — New update

*2013-03-21, version 1.18*

With this new update the game keeps freezing! No happy with it at all, please fix it!

### 1/5 — Thank you

*2013-03-20, version 1.18*

I wondered how to break my addiction to this game. The latest update (20.3.2013) has rendered the game unplayable. Thank you for giving me a reason to uninstall it.

### 1/5 — Problems

*2013-03-16, version 1.17*

Every time you try and shoot, the choice of what enemy you choose came up.

### 1/5 — Very poor

*2012-12-29, version 1.15*

Very poor version of a classic game. Adverts get in the way of play.

### 1/5 — Okay,but....

*2012-09-02, version 1.12*

I enjoy this type of game and as a rule don't mind the pop up ads...but once the ads start offering to let me meet "beautiful Single Thai girls" that was enough and I got rid of it. :-(

### 1/5 — Spiel ist richtig schlecht

*2011-01-19*

Wäre ein gutes Spiel gewesen aber bei der Umsetzung leider nicht aufgepasst!!die Steuerung ist wirklich richtig schlecht der Ball trifft nicht oft da wo man hin will!!

### 5/5 — RELAXING AND ADDICTIVE!

*2025-12-15*

GREAT Customer Support!  After a “crash” that wiped out my standing - problem was solved within 48 hours.  The owner responded not some “bot” in who knows where.  Thanks Boy Howdy!!!!

### 5/5 — Great game!

*2024-10-14, version 1.53*

I really like this game since it is a little tricky but not too hard. I give it an 5 star rating because you need to have good aim and be able to loose sometimes too! I really do think it is a game that other people should play! I hope this review was helpful.

### 5/5 — Bubble Jewels

*2024-04-05*

I enjoy this game, and so far have reached 97… sometimes the trigger goes off and startles me, messes up my game, but it makes it a little more challenging.
