Bubble Yourself Crazy With Bule!

Move Fast But Strategically With Bule!

I had never seen a game quite like this flash game. But it is pretty cool. You get a grid with a whole load of bubbles. At the bottom of the grid is a treasure chest. When the game starts, you just see bubbles, you and the treasure chest. You have to wait for the treasures to appear. They are basically flying around in mid air. So it is your task to grab them so that they can go back to their original home ? the treasure chest. But the only way you can grab them is by making your way towards them. And the only way you can move (not being human but I guess being some kind of water animal) is through the bubbles. You have to move up, down and horizontally VIA the bubbles. That sounds quite easy, right? Well, the problem with this is that the bubbles have this nasty habit of popping before you get the chance to use them as stepping stones. So you find yourself (or at least I did) pressing really hard on the arrow keys on your computer to push yourself faster, but of course pushing harder on the keys just wears them out and does not advance you any faster to your goal. So you have to try and move strategically (I am still trying to work that one out) as well as quickly.

Get Good Quick as Each Level is Harder!

I soon found out that I had to get good at this game pretty quickly since there are more items to collect on each level. So you really have to practice. The more I did play the game, the easier it was and the higher the level I reached. It is a fun game but I found it frustrating too ? I saw that I was frustrated by how much I was banging on my computer keys! But I know that the more I persevere, the better I will become. I guess that can be quite a good lesson for life huh?
