How to Play PopPals

Each PopPals level is a small, solvable puzzle. Your goal is to clear the required cubes — or beat the target score — before your limited number of moves runs out. There is no clock and no timed pressure, so children can take their time and feel every win.

• Step 1 — Tap a matching cluster. Tap any group of 2 or more matching smiling cubes to select it.
• Step 2 — Blast the cubes. The cluster bursts into confetti, earning points toward your level goal.
• Step 3 — Trigger boosters. Matching bigger groups creates boosters: the Rainbow Rocket, Toy Pop Bomb, Bobo's Toy Hammer, and Disco Prism.
• Step 4 — Reach the goal. Clear the required cubes within your move limit to win the level.
• Step 5 — Earn stars and unlock worlds. Finish strongly for a 3-star rating, rescue animal pals, and unlock the next Bubble Valley chapter.

• Rainbow Rocket — matches 5 cubes and blasts an entire row or column.
• Toy Pop Bomb — clears a 3×3 cluster of obstacles in one joyful burst.
• Bobo's Toy Hammer — removes any stubborn cube or blocker without spending a move.
• Disco Prism — wipes every matching-color cube across the whole board.

• Start with Level 1 — the first worlds teach matching gently, with no blockers.
• Count the cubes before tapping — bigger clusters score more and build boosters faster.
• Save boosters for tricky boards — a Disco Prism clears a crowded board instantly.
• Play without internet — every level works fully offline, ideal for travel.
• Let Bobo encourage — Bobo gives gentle hints, never pressure or failures.

How do you play PopPals?

Tap any cluster of two or more matching smiling cubes to blast them. Each blast earns points toward the level goal, and you have a limited number of moves to finish.
