Aim, shoot, pop. Thousands of levels in a magical world. Bubble Shooter Arcadia is the classic bubble game you already know how to play, built with care and set in a world worth exploring. Match three or more bubbles of a colour to clear them, bank shots off the walls, and work your way through level after level. HOW TO PLAY - Drag to aim, release to shoot - Match three or more of the same colour to pop them - Bounce shots off the walls to reach awkward corners - Clear the board or meet the goal before your shots run out SPECIAL BUBBLES - Rock bubbles take more than one hit - Rainbow bubbles match any colour - Bomb bubbles clear everything around them BOOSTERS WORTH SAVING Fireballs burn straight through a line.

Take it on a flight, on the train, or anywhere the signal drops. EASY TO LEARN, HARD TO MASTER The aiming is physics-based, so the wall bounces are real.
