- <a name="playing"></a><b>Playing Bubblet</b>
- <p>
- Bubblet is easy to learn, yet difficult to master. The objective is
- to align similar bubbles in order to form large blocks of bubbles
- before bursting them. The more bubbles in the block before they
- are bursted, the greater number of points you will receive.
- </p>
- <p>
- In order to burst a bubble, the bubble must be connected
- to other similar bubbles on the playing board. If you tap a bubble
- that is connected, those connected bubbles will be highlighted. Tap
- on your selection again in order to burst the bubbles. All bubbles
- above your bursted block will now fall down. You can see the value of
- your selected bubble block by checking your <b>Bubble Points</b> in the top
- right corner of the screen.
- <p>
- Bubble Bonus
- </p>
- <p>
- If you manage to leave fewer than 5 unbursted bubbles on
- the board you will be rewarded with more points at the conclusion of
- the game.
- </p>
- <p>
- Undo
- </p>
- <p>
- Moves in Bubblet can be undone. To take back the last
- move you have made, tap the <b>Undo</b> button.
