Clean 'Em Out There are a fair few variations to the basic formula, but everything centers around popping bubbles. After collecting so many clusters of bubbles, you'll be able to fire off a special bubble that will clear out anything nearby when it connects.

You can swap between these two bubbles by tapping on the launcher, thus giving you a bit more control over how you approach the clusters above you. Unless both bubbles are the same color, that is. If you earn the power-up but don't want to use it yet, tap the launcher to switch back to one of your regular bubbles. More often than not, a direct approach will be difficult.

Pop it I'm no stranger to bubble popping games - plenty of fond memories of Bust a Move - but I am a relative newcomer to the Bubble Witch Saga series. Since I've never played any of King's other bubble poppers I won't be able to make direct comparisons, but I mean it's a game about launching bubbles at other bubbles. It's not exactly breaking new ground. That doesn't make it a bad game, of course, but it's not much of a stand out either. Bad Kitty The superfluous story begins with a mean cat with an eyepatch stealing a thing, the series' protagonist witch Stella giving chase, and then bubbles. Yeah, I know there's a bit more to the backdrop of a story than that, but I honestly don't care. Having a plot in a puzzle game is about as necessary as putting racing stripes on a tractor. All you really need to know going in is that those bubbles won't pop themselves. Yawn-fest of an unnecessary story aside, Bubble Witch 3 Saga wow that name does at least look pretty nice. The backdrops and bubbles are bright, colorful, and crisp; the characters are sporting a much improved cartoony design over the first game from what I can tell, anyway ; and the victory animations are nicely done.

One unexpected problem I ran into was how unfortunate coincidence of the move limit and the random supply of bubble ordinance sometimes get in each others' way. It hasn't happened often, but I have had a couple of rounds where I was left with no conceivable way to win. A combination of only having two turns left and needing to clear out two different colored clusters, say for example red and yellow, but only having the wrong color available i. Again, it hasn't happened often but it's extremely irritating when it does happen. Hum Drum Hocus Pocus Outside of the getting stuck thing, there's really nothing wrong with Bubble Witch 3 Saga. bubble witch 3 saga Okay, the title is also kind of awkward. Some might take issue with the by-the-numbers free-to-play monetization but it's nothing we haven't seen before and it's no worse than you'll find elsewhere.
