Aim, bounce and combine your way to a bigger bubble. Launch numbered bubbles and bring matching pairs together. Each merge creates the next size: 2 becomes 4, 4 becomes 8, and the climb continues all the way to 1T. Plan your shots and keep settled bubbles clear of the danger line. MAKE EVERY SHOT COUNT Preview wall bounces and your predicted first hit before you release. Soft, glassy bubbles stretch with their movement, with artwork made for both light and dark mode. CHOOSE YOUR CHALLENGE Easy starts with a single 2 bubble. After you reach 1K, sizes removed by automatic clears stay out of the launch pool. Hard keeps those smaller sizes in play. Each mode has its own best score and Game Center leaderboard. PLAY YOUR WAY Choose your soundtrack, shuffle or skip tracks, and control music and sound effects separately. Adjust their volumes, haptics and appearance in Settings. Optional colour palettes are available through an in-app purchase. PICK UP WHERE YOU LEFT OFF Your game saves on your device.
