Bubbles appear. They shrink. Tap them before they're gone. Miss three and it's over. Simple as that. TapTrap starts easy - big, bright bubbles that hang around. But every tap makes the next one smaller, faster, harder to catch. By the time you're past 50, you're sweating. THREE MODES - Normal - the real deal - Easy - bigger bubbles, slower pace (hidden unlock) - Insane - tiny targets, zero mercy (hidden unlock) FEATURES - 17 bubble colors - Dark and light themes - Game Center leaderboards - One-tap gameplay, no tutorials - No accounts, no sign-ups Free to play with ads. $0.99 to remove them forever - no subscriptions, no tricks.
