This 10-level game is a unique take on the chain bubble shooter genre popularized by the original Zuma. Clear the entire chain of balls by shooting balls at it to form groups of 3 or more of the same color. The catch is that your shooter is on a track. Bumpers are placed across the track that can block and deflect the balls you shoot.
Clear the chain of balls before it reaches the end of the track.
Shoot away from the bumpers as much as you can.
Try to pass your balls through bonus spots for extra points.

Basic rules
Take out the entire chain of balls before it reaches the end of the track.
To clear balls, fire balls at the chain to form groups of 3 or more of the same color.
If you detach a group of balls from the main chain, it will remain motionless until the tail end of the chain catches up.
If any part of the chain reaches the end of the track, it’s game over.
Select the shooter to change the color of the ball. You can do this several times.
Unlike other chain bubble shooters, this game has a few unique features.
The shooter glides along a track at the bottom of the screen rather than being fixed somewhere in the middle.
There are bumpers along the track that serve different purposes.
Bumpers without numbers are barriers that will deflect any balls you try to shoot.
Avoid shooting too close to them.
These bumpers come in many sizes and some can be easy to ignore.
Bumpers with numbers are bonus spots.
If a ball passes through them, they provide bonus points.
Bonus spots are sometimes very close to bumpers. Watch out.
Tips
If the ball isn’t in your favor, you can either shoot them away from the chain or change their color through the shooter.
We recommend firing them through a bonus spot away from the chain as it’s much faster and nets you points.
Do not break clusters that are a ball away from being cleared.
Consider detaching part of the chain to make it easier to deal with.
Target Audience
The game is suited for people of all ages who like ball chain bubble shooter games.
The game has no adult themed content.
