Tiny Bubbles

This game is lovely and fun, good for relaxing... until you hit a level that's frustrating and stressful. Then you take a break, come back later, and usually when you're fresh you clear that frustrating level and feel pretty pleased with yourself. Then you play for a bit, relaxing, until you hit the next frustrating thing. Wash, rinse, repeat. Some very clever design and adorable animations. This puts me in a similar mood to Mini Metro.

一款雖然看起來像是普通的益智遊戲，但到後期解法卻常常變成考驗手速的物理性破壞系解謎小品.................. 有很多題目可以在各種奇怪的物理引擎振動下莫名其妙的就過了。要說好玩嗎是有點微妙，但是可能性蠻高的是真的。 實在沒有挑戰全成就的意願，全關卡打完後就結束了。以上。

Abwechslungsreiches, optisch niedliches und teils doch sehr forderndes Spiel. Die süße Grafik lässt gerne mal vergessen, dass es sich hierbei um ein Puzzlegame handelt -welches seine Bezeichnung nicht zu Unrecht trägt. Es macht nicht nur Spaß, sondern regelrecht SÜCHTIG und ist trotz (oder vielleicht auch gerade WEGEN) seiner einfachen Handlung bzw. dem leichten Gameplay sehr gut zu ertragen. Das Spiel macht Spaß, bietet eine Zeit lang Beschäftigung und hat sicher einen gewissen wiederspielwert, da es eben ein Gelegenheitsspiel ist. keine komplizierten Tastenbelegungen, welche man nach einigen Tagen eh vergessen hat, keine problematischen oder Teils zu schwere Aufgaben. 'Tiny Bubbles' lockt mit seiner einfachen Spielweise, genauso aber den dennoch anspruchsvollen Aufgaben. Je nach Level hängt es von der eigenen Schnelligkeit, dem logischen Denken (Welche Farbe ergibt mit welcher gemischt die erforderliche) oder einfach dem Glück ab, ob man farblich die Blasen bekommt, die man benötigt... oder aber ob ein blöder Fisch euch einen Strich durch die Rechnung macht. Bringt Seesterne zusammen, haltet Krabben von ihnen fern und entdeckt selber die einzelnen Level. Meiner Meinung nach gut investiertes Geld, kann man nicht viel mit falsch machen, dabei mag ich solche Puzzlegames eigentlich überhaupt nicht ^^ Klare Kaufempfehlung für ein tolles Spiel :3

A great little casual puzzle game. Nicely done. It's a bit hard sometimes but otherwise, it's a pleasure to play it.

The game is not just visually and acoustically charming, but you get a large number of clever puzzles for your money.

If you like puzzle games, physics puzzlers,. etc., you'll love this. Grab it now while it's on sale! Criminally underappreciated, not only is the gameplay fun and challenging, the execution is pleasing and elegant.

i wish the puzzles where the fish continuously blows bubbles would wait until you made your first move to start blowing bubbles. let me get my bearings!!!!

I had some fun with this game, mostly in the Puzzle Mode. If you can restrict yourself to the Puzzle Mode, then sure, this is a good game. But the Arcade Mode is all about completing goals with this fish doing stuff in the level as you make your moves, and the fish is just the least fun mechanic I've ever encountered in a puzzle game. I say this as someone who went to the trouble of 100%ing the game. It's a shame, because it could have easily been done better. I'll explain: in the Arcade Mode, levels have this fish that places bubbles according to certain patterns. Sometimes it only places bubbles in the center, sometimes only in the outside, sometimes it prefers certain zones... But the only thing you get to know at the start of a level is whether the fish is placing bubbles after a given time or whether the fish is placing bubbles after every move you make. Aside from that, there's no way to know what the fish is programmed to do each level except by observing the fish's behavior, so on your first try of a level, it's sometimes a good idea to ignore the level itself and watch what the fish does. There's a tool-tip on the side that they can use to describe what the fish is going to do each level, so why not use that? Also, you have no idea what the fish's next move is going to be, which totally screws with your ability to plan. When you have a plan, your only option is to execute on it REALLY FAST, before the fish does something to ruin it like laying a bubble that completes a match you need, or laying a bubble with a color you're out of so you can't match it to clear it, or laying a bubble that pushes a match you need AWAY... I think that some way to know what the fish is going to do next would've helped a lot. All that said? There's some fun to be had here; the Puzzle Mode is downright inspired at times. I was making bubbles big enough to make matches, cutting things to manipulate the physics, making all kinds of paths so stars could find their friends and avoid the wicked jelly crabs... Great, clever stuff. But even then, the game doesn't let you see more than four moves ahead. I get why that's the case in Arcade Mode, but shouldn't the Puzzle Mode let you see that stuff? So that feels like another sin of the the Arcade Mode; it's really too bad they were attached to the same game. One last complaint: it takes too much luck to get a match of fifteen or more in Infinity Mode. Those achievements should've stopped at 10+, which takes some cleverness but doesn't give the fish as much power to screw you over.

Puzzles ? There are some pure puzzles, but the game is mostly arcade, with physics and various forms of timers. Hand mobility is paramount. Usually, I flush timed puzzles into the virtual toilet with a red thumb down, but not here. Gotta admit that the thing is quite fun. Some levels are indeed annoying, but that's when the clock is combined with RNG-based mechanics that take all sense of achievement out of your hands: if you fail, you reapply your method until you stop being unlucky. Plus a couple of levels that are so badly designed that you get a game over before you've finished reading the objectives; it can take several attempts until you finally get involved. Reasons for being enjoyable despite the time constraints (which single-handedly ruin most games) are their brevity (you lose little on failure,) the utterly satisfying bubble physics, and the presentation, notably the sound. It's about as resistible as the popping of bubble wrap. Several of the actual puzzles are excellently designed; in fact, I found the most challenging levels to be non-timed ones. Finally, I wouldn't call the full game relaxing, but many levels certainly are; and replayable. I can't help deducing points for including timers (I hate timers, in case you hadn't noticed,) but my final rating is still largely positive.

This is so calming for my autism, thanks for making life easier.
