--- A MUST HAVE GAME #1 FOR EVERY WOMAN --- Bubble Burst™ is an amazing and very absorbing classic game where you must select a color group of bubbles on a grid and click to destroy them. The more bubbles you destroy with a single click, the higher your score will be. Unlike the other bubble games, Bubble Burst™ involves more deep thinking and strategy instead of fast paced action. For example, if you see two small groups of blue bubbles with a few green ones in between, you might want to eliminate the green first so you can hit all the blue ones in one shot.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Bubble Burst™ at none against Marbles Plus's shown. Bubble Burst™ also leads on review sentiment (84% vs 60%) and ratings volume (93 vs 2). Marbles Plus's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.6) and update cadence (every 6 weeks vs every 8 months). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Marbles Plus sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Bubble Burst™ sells 2 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Marbles Plus holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Bubble Burst™ has 93 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 60% of Marbles Plus's written reviews are positive against 84% of Bubble Burst™'s, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Marbles Plus ships an update every 6 weeks, Bubble Burst™ every 8 months. The most recent releases landed on September 24, 2026 and October 10, 2026 respectively.
