How to Play the Pop It Game
- Tap a bubble to pop it, or drag your finger or mouse across a row to pop several at once.
- Pop every bubble and the board flips over, just like the real toy, so you can start again.
- Pick a different board below the game whenever you like.
There's no score and no timer. Tap Flip it to turn the board over before you've finished.
How to Play Pop It With a Friend
Tap With a friend to play the classic two-player pop it game on one screen. The rules:
- Take turns. On your turn, pop as many bubbles as you like, but all from the same row.
- Tap Done to hand over to the other player.
- Whoever has to pop the last bubble loses.
A tip for the end of the game: try to leave your friend an odd number of rows with one bubble in each. Then the last bubble is theirs.
Which Board to Pick
- Rainbow: the classic square pop it, 36 bubbles in six colors.
- Heart: 46 bubbles in a heart shape.
- Round: 52 bubbles in a circle.
- Giant: a big pop it with 100 bubbles, for a longer go.
- Bubble wrap: 64 clear bubbles with a sharper pop. Finish the sheet and a new one slides in.
Playing Anywhere
Sound starts off, so you can play on a bus or in a quiet office. Turn it on for a soft pop, or a sharper snap on bubble wrap. On a computer, press Esc and the game turns into a plain spreadsheet until you press it again.
