Addicted to Rebubbled

My sophomore year of college I was introduced to a game called Bubble Trouble and quickly became addicted.  My roommate, Ashley, and I would compete for highest level and highest score.  Each of us wanted to be better than the other.  Micah and I would sit next to each other and play on our respective laptops, but that was always disappointing because he was so much better than me so I would often encourage that we cooperate on the two player option so that we could "spend time together." Bubble Trouble was embarrassingly prevalent throughout my college career.


I recently learned that Bubble Trouble 2: Rebubbled was released. Of course I had to try it out.  I'll be honest and admit that it isn't as good as the first.  They were creative in introducing new bubble shapes and the on/off feature, but by making it more complex it has lost the simplistic appeal of the original.  Despite this fact, I can't help but play it.  Bubble Trouble had 22 levels.  I beat the game on numerous occassions and still enjoyed playing it again.  I just want to beat Rebubbled once.  IT IS HARD!  I got stuck on level 45 for two full days and now I'm up to level 58.  I just learned, much to my dismay, that there are 72 levels!!!  I know there are only 14 more levels, but they are so difficult that I'm not sure I'll ever finish.  I've decided already that once I finish Rebubbled, I'M NEVER PLAYING AGAIN! (But I have to beat it once!)

Just kidding. You've been moderate in playing. However, whenever I hear the rapid tap of a spacebar... I know what you're doing. ;)

You are funny. I can imagine the rapid tapping and that is making me laugh! Good Luck! I hope you beat it before Sunday because I don't really want to play it for game night. ;)

Coming soon.... said...

Too funny. I do have fond memories of you and Ashley both playing that game for hours.
