- Basics
- The game works with the same fundamental rules as other bubble shooter games.
- As Star, cast a spell of a specific color at the advancing wall of critters.
- The spell must land on a group of 2 or more critters of the same color to clear them.
- If the spell doesn’t land on the right number of critters, a new critter of the spell’s color appears.
- Don’t let the critters reach the barricade on the left side of the screen.
- Each time you clear a group that holds up other critters, the critters that are no longer attached are removed form the screen as well.
- Key differences set this game apart from other bubble shooters:
- The game is horizontally oriented. The wall of critters are on the right whereas the
- You have a limited amount of ammunition.
- When you run out of ammo, you fail the level.
- You can see your remaining spells on the top left corner of the screen.
- In general you will typically run out of ammo about half way through the game if you do not regularly use magic spells.
- You can select the spell you cast based on the spell balls you’ve collected.
- Select Star and Marco to select a different set of spell balls to cast.
- You only have a limited number of spell balls to exchange with, based on how many you pick up while playing.
- In addition to the color spells, later in the game you unlock two more spells which suck critters into the void or shoot flames down at the critters.
- In later levels you gain several allies that will help you clear out the wall of critters faster
- Starting from level 6. you also have to contend with pots.
- Pots act as barriers that keep you from aiming at specific groups of critters. Often, you must shoot around them.
- You cannot clear pots, but they act to shield and anchor critters to the group.
- If you detach a pot (by taking out the critters below or beside it), you can clear it from the playing field, as well as anything still attached to it.
- On some of the later levels you have to rescue friends by removing all the critters surrounding them.
- Bonuses
- Bonuses come in the form of cupcakes.
- Cupcakes appear in game after clearing large swaths of critters. Select them as they appear.
- Each time you activate your allies’ powers, you use up one cupcake.
- If you still have cupcakes left after the game ends, you can receive a time bonus that reduces your total counted playtime.
- Each level has a different ally or group of allies on it. Not all allies are present on each level.
- Each ally provides a different benefit:
- Minotaur: Pushes back the crowd of critters.
- Flying pig: Removes all critters of a specific color.
- Pirate Bear: Hits 3 critters of your choice.
- Flying pig: Takes out a group of critters of any color within a specific range
- Raccoon: Allows you to rapidly shoot bubbles for a short period of time without drawing down your remaining bubbles inventory. Be warned you can not layer a color spell on top of this rapid stream of fire.
- Disco worm: allows you to change colors individually of 3 different bubbles, one at a time.
- Star ratings
- Your star rating for the level depends on how fast you clear all the critters.
- For every cupcake you don’t use, you get some time removed from your total.
- Finish within or below the level’s time to beat (revealed after you finish the level) to earn 3 stars.
- Tips
- Swap balls whenever you can to maximize the number of critters you can clear within a turn. Your ball count is limited, so shooting off colored balls that do not make matches depletes a vital resource while giving you more balls you’ll have to remove later.
- Choose larger groups of critter to clear, especially those that smaller groups of critters are attached to.
- You can bounce your shots off the top or bottom walls to get into hard to reach places.
- Whenever possible, use your allies’ powers to strategically clear large swaths of critters at once.
- That said, conserve your cupcakes to take advantage of the time bonus.
- Target Audience
- The game is suited for children who like Star Vs. The Forces of Evil.
- The game has no adult themed content.
