About this game
Aim, bounce and pop! Popkins is a cozy bubble shooter full of tiny critters.
Six kinds of Popkins hang in bubbles under the Grumble Cloud: a coral kitten, a tangerine bear cub, a butter-yellow buddy with an antenna, a mint sprout, a teal imp and a curly violet puff. Load one into your acorn cannon, aim with one finger and let go. Match three or more of the same colour and they pop out of their bubbles and drift away on leaf parachutes. Cut a whole cluster loose and it tumbles into the nests for big bonus points.
Watch out for the Grumble Cloud. Every miss and every tick of its clock makes it angrier, and it pushes the whole ceiling down. Clear the board before a bubble crosses the dashed line.
- Smooth one-finger aiming with a dotted guide that shows every wall bounce and where your bubble will land
- Bank shots and trick shots off both walls score extra
- 60 levels up Popkin Peak across 6 regions, from Meadow Hop to Starry Summit
- Beat par for 3 stars on every level
- Fill the power star for rainbow bubbles and bomb bubbles
- Stones and bomb pods shake things up on later levels
- Endless mode: hold back the cloud as long as you can
- Daily Climb: 70 shots on the same board for every player, a new board every day, and a streak to keep
- Combos, chain drops, juicy pops and a bouncy soundtrack
- Short levels for quick breaks, plays offline
