Very few games have managed to capture my attention for more than a month or two. This game however has pulled it off effortlessly since 1990. I can still enjoy it for hours if I’m playing in 2-player mode with a buddy. Bub and Bob are as addictive as…well, things that are addictive. They went on to star in multiple games, such as the Puzzle Bobble series, Bubble Memories, Bubble Symphony...the list goes on.

The game begins with two dinosaurs, Bub and Bob, having their girlfriends been captured, the goal of the adventure is to rescue them; you will have to guide Bub and Bob through over 100 levels of bubble shooting bliss. The games simplicity is its most attractive feature. It’s simple to pick up with a friend and get right into it.

Upon starting the game you immediately are thrown into action where you blow bubbles across the screen and attempt to capture the bad guys in them. Notice the orange bad guy in the bubble; he looked just like the other robot before I captured him...(or her, you ladies can be bad guys too...)

When a bad guy (or gal) is captured in a bubble, they begin to float toward the top of the screen.

I grew up playing Bubble Bobble, probably one of the 5 first games I've ever played. 75 Viz.

That is such a fun game. I think I liked it so much because it was different than all of the other stuff that was on the market. Nice review.
