Bubble Mania Reviews

I have played Bubble Mania for years. Recently there are some major glitches in the game. Yes, I emailed the editor without them providing a solution. Yes, I have the latest version. (The editor’s solution to the glitches). When playing Rainbow Rush, the games don’t tabulate correctly. When I win a level about half the time I still lose a life. Other times it repeats the same level that I had just won. When I win level 5 I’m not recognized as the King and do not have access to Rainbow Rush. Eventually the screen notifies me that another King has replaced me. The extra time awarded when you become King doesn’t start until I’m replaced and then it’s down to about 10 minutes. The screen freezes large spiders on it. I am able to play but it’s annoying. My player picture is used for a lot of different players (scary). These are the main issues and until the editors can fix it I wouldn’t waste my time playing.

Anything from Storm8 is just awful. I uninstalled this game after Storm8 stole money from me in another of their useless apps. BubbleMania constantly makes it impossible to win gems and insist on you paying cash for their worthless goals. There’s no way to win gems. Storm8 does NOT care about customer service. Most apps respond instantly when you complain. Not Storm8. They could care less because they get more downloads whether you enjoy the game or not & downloads is how apps get paid. This is a horrible company & the culture must be as horrific as the service they provide. I don’t know why they’re successful other than they copy other games, get people addicted, & then treat the customers poorly. But doesn’t crack do the same? I hate this game & Storm8.

This game basically cheats. After around level 80, the game decides when you will win and when you will lose. I’ve been stuck in levels for at least 15 tries then all of a sudden the level
that was so hard, becomes easy and you don’t even know why. If a level gives you 70 balls, 30 of them are useful, rest are just useless colours that you do not need. Sometimes you can nudge a ball in between 2 balls, other times you cannot. Let’s not start with the ball spitter thing. Since the game purposely gives you balls you don’t need, there’s no way to win a level with these nuisances once you fail to pop balls because wrong colours are coming out. It’s clear they’re forcing you to use your powerups then once you run out, buy gems with real money so you can pass a level. One thing is hard and difficulty, another is playing against a rigged game.

I used to 💜this game. It was my go-to game when I wanted to relax after a stressful day and have fun playing a game. I didn’t even mind spending a few dollars every now and then t to get a boost I needed to clear a board. Not anymore!! 💀😡💲🤬🤯👿☠️
This has happened multiple times and I’ve finally had it. Every time I finally break down and purchase coins the game starts freezing up, taking the game, the coins, and the gems that I just purchased. I don’t know how many (multiple) times it has done it. It seems like this game is out to steal the money you used to purchase extras by freezing the game to take away your coins, money, extras, a life and a win, so you will purchase more coins to finish level. Also using ads (they make money on) in the same way, after watching 2 ads if you do get the extra the game will freeze up and take it back. This is a scam

Until it suddenly began bombarding you with loud, random commercials. I listen to podcasts a lot while playing & the sudden burst of noise in my ear is disturbing & painful.

Now I can no longer earn gems by watching videos. Annoying as they are, it’s better to watch the videos than pay for gems. Also, why must we start at zero every time a goal is met in the puzzle piece challenge? For example, I meet the 500 piece goal & am awarded the prize. Then for the 1,700 piece goal I have to start at zero. Why not allow players to build on the 500, 1700, etc?

This game had become increasingly less fun, mainly because it feels as if the developers have purposefully made the upper levels so hard one can’t pass them without using boosters. And since it costs so many gems to buy a booster one is either forced to spend money or play the same level over & over.

My Facebook photo has been picked up and shared by other players using my photo as their gaming ID pic. Tens if not a hundred or so other players. I play on two different devices and one time the game would only let me open through Facebook. Once I did that they automatically replaced my little starfish ID pic with my facebook pic which I didn’t want to happen. Not only that but now other players are using my facebook profile pic and it is all over the game in the player standings tier. Sometimes 5 or 6 or even 10 players in each tier using my photo. I have emailed the developers but they have not replied. If you play this game do not use your Facebook photo or open through Facebook or this may happen to you. I would have given this a 4 stars - minus one for stacking the color of balls against you sometimes - but now I have to give it a 1.

Been playing this game for a few years now and I’m currently on level 2,140. I originally bought this game with no ads and now almost every time I have started a round before I can shoot a bubble an ad pops up and I have to wait 30 seconds or it pops up before I can click play for another round. It’s very annoying. I don’t want to see ads for different games!!!

The game repeats levels I have already played which is of course irritating cuz if you’re gonna make more islands with different levels then come up with new levels like a regular game does. I always know when I’ve played the same level I have in the past.

I’ve been playing for a few years and do enjoy the game. I even think that it’s a form stress release as I pop the bubbles. For a change I started playing those side games where there’s 5 levels and you supposed to get free boosters or something. The frustrating part is that on a few occasions I completed all 5 levels but somehow the game resets and never records my win. Plus I’m not sure if this is supposed to be but there are times they I complete a level and it takes me back to 1 and it takes a life every time I successfully complete a level. I would think that if a level is won then you keep playing on that same life. If this keeps up I may have to give up the game and play something else.

I liked playing this game and all, but there are things I need to say about it. First of all, there is a glitch: After I have been playing for a few minutes and and getting through a few levels, when I’m in the middle of a level, it crashes randomly! Then after that, I rejoin and lose my energy from playing! It’s really unfair because I didn’t just exit the game in the middle of the level. I hope this gets fixed, so that I can play and not have to deal with random crashes. Next thing is the aiming when shooting bubbles in levels: When I’m aiming my bubbles to shoot, unlike any bubble game I’ve seen, it doesn’t have a very long aim! If I have the aiming bouncing off the walls, it doesn’t show the aim at all! And when I am just doing a straight line when aiming, it doesn’t have the line going all the way up to the bubbles that need to be popped! This aiming makes it VERY difficult to shoot my bubbles and it would be nice if the aiming could be like normal bubble games where the line would go up to all the bubbles doing a straight line, and when bouncing off walls, it would have at least a little line there to see. I don’t think the aiming problem is a glitch, but it makes it annoying. That’s all I have to say about Bubble Mania!

The game is fun and challenging but the ads are annoying and disruptive. And sometimes when I watch the ads for extra life, it would not give me the extra life. Or when I watch it for the extra 3 bubbles, it would freeze, and make me watch 1-3 more ads before allowing me to play. But last week after watching an ad for the 3 bubbles, it would attempt to play another video but would fail to load...I tried to replay multiple times but it would not load. It is also annoying when the ads pop up when you are about to start to play. So the game is fun but the ads are very annoying and disruptive. Candy crush can control the ads better.

I have played this game for over 4 years. I’m on level 1070, and if it weren’t for my past with this game I’d give a 1 star review. When you start to get to really high levels, I think the 600+ I would say, the levels start to repeat themselves. There is no way to skip them. So you get caught playing levels you’ve already beat. There’s 1 level that has repeated itself 4 times already. I find this EXTREMELY annoying because I want to play new levels, not beat old ones again. Before this problem it was my favorite game, but I have grown apart from it with the level repetition. Now I’m debating on deleting it or not. This is a fantastic game, but once you get far into it, you’ll be very disappointed.

I’m only giving this game three stars because I like playing it on downtown, but the developers are serious scammers. Almost every time I use the play more option and play the video to get three more balls, it freezes on me, not allowing me to play those extra free balls, but then takes away the option next time, and I have to wait till my times up to use the option again. It has also used my tokens of gems to get more balls without me even pressing anything, it just automatically makes me continue playing. It’s so aggravating because, how convenient all these issues arise during the extra lives portion. It’s like they are trying to make you spend money by taking away your gems and then freezing up on the free three balls. Terrible

This is an awesome game to play. I can not wait to have free time to to see how far I can get each time. What I do not like are all the ads and the time frame in which I have to wait to play. So in frustration I usually close the game and go to another with less ads. I understand companies may have to have them but moderation would be nice I do not want to have to wait for 30 seconds each time I play. This takes away if I’m even going to open BubbleMania I usually just go to a game I know I can play without so many ads. To bad because I really enjoy the challenge.

I really love the game, but I detest having to watch some of the videos. There is something wrong with Royal Match. Countless times I have used my gems to continue on a game only to lose them because the video won’t return to the game when It finishes. It just goes to download the new game! I find this very annoying particularly when these videos are extremely long and I already own the game! There has to be a better system. I would prefer to purchase the game outright!
If it were not for this major annoyance the game would certainly earn 5 stars!!!

I downloaded this game expecting to play it a couple of times then delete. A couple of weeks later, here I am, still enjoying playing. The game is very simple, but challenging. I use up my lives quickly, and then I'm cut off from playing for several hours until my lives refill. I don't use any of the extra help tools because they are expensive. But still, I eventually manage to advance levels, and have fun doing it. This game is a nice, quick, fun challenging little puzzle break each day.

Have been playing a long time, starting before Storm8 acquired it. Am on a level in the 2000’s. I like that 5 game limit because it helps guard against playing too long. It is rather addictive for me.

I’ve never purchased anything through the game. Nor have I linked to Facebook or anything else.

I used to catch up to the last island and then had to wait until a new island was released, which they seemed to release about once a month. Now the islands stay usually 5 ahead. However, they are recycling islands that were also released awhile ago. Makes me wonder if they have put BubbleMania on maintenance.

After I got used to the puzzle pieces, I found I liked them. But I generally don’t use the helps much, usually when it’s not a fun game and I just want to finish it. Have not done anything with the coins.

More recent updates are generally not good, especially the ads between games. There seems to be less of them now, but now they’ve got ads where the sound is turned on by default and you have to quickly find the sound button on the screen. Not good!

Not many bugs, generally when balls don’t do what they are supposed to.

This is my favorite game to play on my phone, in fact it’s really the only game I play regularly. The graphics are super cute, I love the little critter that throws the bubbles. The game itself is simple to play, but I don’t lose interest because as you get to higher levels, the difficulty increases. It never gets TOO hard, but there have been some levels I had to play 20+ times to beat! Many different “hazards” (such as bubbles that add more bubbles to the screen, bubbles that end the level if touched, and spiders that kill the babies in the bubbles) add variety and difficulty to the game. This game does make video ads pop up sometimes (never when you’re actually playing the game, though), but it doesn’t bother me too much since it was a free app. Also, if you lose 5 lives in a row, you have to wait an hour to gain a life back and resume game play. That can be a little annoying, but at the same time, sometimes I need that break if I’ve been playing the game too long, haha. This is the best game in BubbleMania Store and so worth the download!!! 💜

I love the game and play it often. The big problem I have with the game is when I use a wall to bank or bounce a bubble in order or bubbles that cannot be hit with a straight shot,
I have no way to accurately know where bubble will end up. The dots from the ball/arrow are too short. It doesn’t show you where the bubble will end up. It is like a “crap shoot.” One has to guess or estimate where bubble will end up unless it is a straight shot. I would like the game much better if this situation/problem to me and probably for many others as well was rectified. Else wise, the game Is fun.

Some levels are pretty straight forward and simple, but as you progress they become really challenging, especially the ones with the bubble blowers and when bubbles switch colors. It helps to study the patterns and layout of each level, then sprinkle in some luck to get the correct color bubble when you need it. Some levels seem outright impossible to win, and since you don't have unlimited lives you have to step away, and darn it, I keep going back to try again. I guess I'm addicted. : /

This game is great fun-very addicting! I wish there were more lives and more opportunities to win extra gems. Also the game seems to not give you the colors you need when you need them. I wish you could also get more ways to earn coins or make it easier to get the special items. Seems like they cost so much to purchase and don't last that long. Love the new bonus game- would love to see the bonus game more often. It's a great way to win extra things!
