Bubble Wyrms strategy: trap in groups, pop in chains and beat the Wyrm
How bubbles trap enemies, why popping several at once pays so much, how to climb with bubble bounces, and how to bring down the Wyrm boss.
PLAY A FREE ROUND ↗Trap close, pop together
A bubble only traps while it is still flying, the first moment after you blow it, so blow it when an enemy is close and in front of you. Trapped enemies float up and drift to the middle of the ceiling. Do not pop them one by one: touching one bubble pops every bubble touching it, and each enemy in the same pop is worth double the last, from 500 up to 8,000.
Climb with bounces
Platforms can be jumped through from below. Hold jump as you fall onto a bubble and you bounce off it instead of popping it, which is how you reach a cluster against the ceiling. Dropping through the gap in the floor brings you down from the top of the stage.
Watch the clock
A trapped enemy breaks free after about thirteen seconds, angry and faster; a bubble flashes red just before. Spend too long on a stage and every enemy turns angry, and fifteen seconds later the Phantom comes for you. It cannot be trapped, so finish the stage. The bar at the top right shows the time left.
Know the enemies
Blobs patrol their platform and hop up toward you. Bugs run fast and drop off edges. Eyes float diagonally and bounce off the walls, ignoring platforms. Do not jump up under an enemy standing on the platform above you.
The Wyrm
Every fifth level the Wyrm flies the stage and spits sparks at you. Hit it with bubbles while they are still flying; each hit takes one point off its bar. When the bar is empty it is trapped in a giant bubble that never escapes: climb up and pop it for a big bonus and a life back.
