Octonauts Bubbles is a bubble-popping game that features a deep sea exploration theme. The player attempts to pop bubbles and earn high scores on playfields across 27 levels and one surprise (?) bonus level.�
In an underwater room inside a sunken wooden ship, in front of wooden beams, wine casks and marine life, colorful bubbles marked with anchors, boats, fish, octopuses, paw prints, shields and other nautical icons hang from the top of a playfield. Two anthropomorphic animals in diving suits with clear bubble helmets work together to provide the player with a "shooter" to pop bubbles. The far right character holds bubble projectiles and tosses new ones to the main diver, who then tosses each one up toward the hanging bubbles.
The player directs the shots with or without a dotted aiming line. Octonauts Bubbles requires that they create clusters of color- and icon-matched bubbles. When a cluster pops, the bubbles turn into stars, droplets and splashes. The game rewards the player points for each popped cluster and any bubbles connected below a cluster.
The player must clear an entire field to unlock the next one. The process isn't as easy as it sounds. Sometimes the bubbles roll off other bubbles. Additionally, the characters swimming in place and the water around them alter the trajectory of the projectiles.
