Bubble Trubble review

Bubble Trubble is, aswell as being terribly gramatically, a lot like games like tetris and Collums. Except the fact that it's bubbles. Bet you didn't see that one coming, did you? The premise of this game is very simple: place the bubbles so that the colours hit each other and inflate into much bigger bubbles. When they get to a certain size, they pop and you carry on going. Sounds simple right? Yeah, sort of. It's not easy though! More confusing gets added to the mix when you realise that when different coloured bubbles pop, different things happen - for example, when blue bubbles pop, you get a buttload of water on the screen. Black bubbles won't pop bubbles around them, etc.

First, there are 3 difficulties (bet you can't guess what they are!). Choose the one you want, and then you get the option of having a "survival" round, whereby you simple have to play for as long as possible without filling the screen (see, i told you it was like tetris!).

There's also "Challenge" mode is a bit different; for this, you get given challenges to fulfull, for example the first challenge is "Bananas Away! - Pop 5 bubbles." There are many different challenges to keep you occupied if you are any good at them (i wasn't, i gave up on the second one...). Really, that's about all there is to the game - like i said, the premise is very simple. Controls are very simple - in fact, there are only a couple. Use the shoulder buttons to rotate the bubbles left or right, and use the down arrow on the D-Pad to make bubbles fall faster. Think you can remember all that?

So would i recommend it? Yes, definitely. It's a fun little time killer, even if you suck as greatly at it as i do! If you like Tetris (and let's face it, everyone loves tetris) you should love this game, as it is very similar (have i said that enough times yet? Hmm...). The challenges and the different difficulties are bound to keep you occupied for a while, making it worth the measley price you paid for it.
