Bored? Try this addictive flash game!
It's called "Boomshine"

At first it seems simple and silly, but it's very addictive. :crazy:

http://www.k2xl.com/games/boomshine/

Choose one bubble to pop and set off a chain reaction which pops more bubbles. Each level has a specific number of bubbles that need to be popped to pass the level (there are 12 levels). The first few levels are easy, but they get more difficult as the game progresses. If you fail a level, you can keep trying until you achieve the goal. The creator was kind - you don't have to go back to level one every time you fail. :)

I'm currently stuck on the final level - I need to pop 55 bubbles and I can't get more than 50 ... ARGH! :banghead:

8. My high score is 271 and I was thrilled with that until ...
I took a look at the high scores for the day. Someone named "franca" got 573! Several others also scored well over 500.

How the hell did they do that? :shrug: I struggled to hit 271, LOL! :P

22. LOL ... that happened to me, too.
Edited on Mon Apr-30-07 07:38 PM by BattyDem
The first time I played, I had no problem getting up to level 12 and then I got stuck there for quite a while. When I started another game, I got stuck on Level 8! There must have been something wrong with my computer. ;-)
