The fluidity of the bubbles adds a lot of dimension the game and requires timing, accuracy and strategy. Please add update that properly saves game. I leave the app and 60% of the time the game saves and 40% of the time it doesn't! I have little hope because his app does not seem to be supported anymore. ### 5/5 — Update, make some more color. *2014-08-06, version 1.8.5* I Playing this game every day and Wish there were more some color and level. ### 5/5 — Cool *2014-05-20, version 1.8.5* Awesome!!! ### 4/5 — Hooked! *2014-05-13, version 1.8.5* Love the game. Hooked big time. ### 5/5 — Dubble Bubble *2014-04-16, version 1.8.5* This game is INSANELY ADDICTIVE; You are working against some sticky bubbles that you are trying to knock off of the board. At one point, you think you are knocking down a "cluster" of bubbles; you become excited only to find that the sticky bubbles swing upward & attaches itself to the stationary bubbles on the board, and you are left shouting expletives. LOVE THIS GAME! It's a real challenge!!! ### 5/5 — Mesmerizing & fun *2014-03-11, version 1.8.5* A great puzzle game you can play in several options- with time pressure, without, or against a friend. ### 5/5 — Awesome *2013-12-29, version 1.8.5* Totally addictive game. ### 5/5 — Amazing game *^_^* *2013-10-28, version 1.8.5* I ❤️ how you can play the game in different modes and styles! :) ### 5/5 — great app excellent game *2013-10-21, version 1.8.5* this game is the best wish it had more than 7 levels ### 4/5 — Enjoyable *2013-07-08, version 1.8.5* Good app; easy to catch onto, simple to play. I only wish it would rotate so I can play it horizontal. ### 4/5 — Game *2013-06-15, version 1.8.5* Great game, wish there were more levels. ### 4/5 — Great *2013-05-30, version 1.8.5* Enjoyed it ### 5/5 — Review *2013-05-28, version 1.8.5* Love this game!!!!!!!! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 2/5 — Can't save it. Never works. *2015-03-10, version 1.8.5* Love the game. Got up to a great level, paused it and it's all gone. Happens each time. Fix it and I'll give 5 stars... ### 2/5 — It's just a sample *2015-02-22, version 1.8.5* It's just a free sample of a few levels, then you have to buy. ### 3/5 — It's OK *2013-03-10, version 1.8.5* It's a good game, but agree game should be just that .. FREE! ### 3/5 — Addicted *2013-01-26, version 1.8.5* Good game, hard to go up different level after achieved level 5 ### 3/5 — Good for a freebie *2011-05-25, version 1.7.1* I like how it plays. A couple of criticisms: 1) no instructions, no hint as to how different versions work or what your goals might be, and 2) if you don't do as well as some adolescent programmer decided you should, the game sneers at you. Smack talk from a friend is one thing; from a stranger in absentia who you can't answer back, it's annoying. Especially when they don't bother telling you how the scoring works or anything else. Mostly because of that, i'm still debating whether to go for the full version. $4 is a lot to pay when insults are part of the package. ### 4/5 — PLEASE UPDATE TO IOS 11. *2018-01-03, version 1.8.5* PLEASE UPDATE TO IOS 11. ### 4/5 — oggizle *2016-04-09, version 1.8.5* Awesome game one you start playing very hard to put down. Played other bubble shooter games but this one keeps you playing ### 4/5 — NatnNessa *2015-10-24, version 1.8.5* I'm addicted, and most games don't keep me interested. ### 4/5 — SABAS *2015-10-05, version 1.8.5* Playing this game is very exciting, I just can't quit! ### 4/5 — Great game *2015-05-03, version 1.8.5* Love this game, but can you format the texts for us folks you have vision problems make it hard to read. Just a suggestion. Thank you. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Updated! YES! *2018-08-10, version 1.9.1* This is my ONLY bubble shooter, I think it’s the BEST, and I’m SO happy they updated it for iOS 11! I play Zen because I love that color palate. Beautiful and relaxing. Honestly I put off the iOS 11 upgrade until THIS WEEK because I did not want to lose this game. THANK YOU to the developers for the update! ### 5/5 — Dubble Free Shooter *2017-12-03, version 1.8.5* Love the game. Had seem like forever until recent update. CRASHED!!!! So disappointed. Was addictive & constant for me. PLEASE FIX ASAP. ### 5/5 — Great *2017-11-13, version 1.8.5* Great game. I love this game. ### 5/5 — Enjoy this game while you can! *2017-05-19, version 1.8.5* Once 64 bit is required, this game is history. The developer has not supported it for a number of years and it would appear nothing is coming from him in time. So, keep playing it and not update to the latest iOS software version coming soon or update and never play it again! This is my favorite game of its type. What a shame to lose it. ### 5/5 — best *2016-05-04, version 1.8.5* just the best. I wish 'zen' was unending and peaceful, watching the fun physics of the game and the clours, but, it is a wonderful game. ### 5/5 — Queen *2015-06-26, version 1.8.5* 1 word, GREAT!!! ### 5/5 — OMG... I love this game. *2015-05-04, version 1.8.5* I can't get enough of it. ### 5/5 — Great game. *2015-01-06, version 1.8.5* I enjoy playing it in evening to unwind from the day. This one is a keeper. Try it, ### 5/5 — Bubblicious! *2014-10-11, version 1.8.5* I play this game every day and never get tired of it! By far my favorite :-) my only recommendation is related to scoring. It would be fun if it had a category for "this week's high score," in addition to my ultimate high score. ### 5/5 — Levels *2014-08-24, version 1.8.5* Love love love the game! But shouldn't have to buy levels :( maybe u should have specials items like bombs to buy. It's idea. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
