Bubble Bomb

Green SPiral for pink triangle

 

The game features bomb tiles and chips showing colors and symbols. You collect chips for combinations corresponding to the double-sided bomb tiles on display. There are color bombs and symbol bombs as well as a Bubble bomb for all symbols + all colors and a Rainbow bomb for all colors.

9 of 56 Chips and all bomb tiles are on display. You draw 7 chips from the bag and all search simultaneously for chips for one of the combinations depicted on the bomb tiles - all chips of a color or of one symbol or all chips with different symbols or different color or - most difficult - 7 chips featuring different shapes and colors. You may turn over your own chips or chips in the middle and swap your own chips for chips from the middle, but using one hand only. The last missing chip for a combination can be taken from another player, that is, swapped for one of your own chips, you must call out “Banzai”. If you have formed a combination you call “Bumm” and your chips are controlled. If you have matched a color or symbol bomb you set aside one of your chips for points, draw a replacement from the bag and turn over the corresponding bomb tile. If you completed Rainbow or all Symbols you draw a chip for points and swap your chips for 7 chips from the middle. If you complete Bubble Bomb you take this tile from wherever it is, it is worth three victory points at the end. When the last chip is drawn from the bag you win with most points from the chips you set aside.

Chaotic, hectic, fun and best played with four players - swapping tiles with another player is an essential feature, so look out not only for chips from the middle, but also for those of other players. A fabulous party game.
