What’s It About?
In SMURFS BUBBLE STORY, you help Smurfette decide whether she wants to be a postal Smurf. To do this, you have to use your touchpad to toss a colored bubble at some other colored bubble, which makes them disappear and, hopefully, drop a letter for Smurfette to catch. As you continue, you unlock other Smurfs in what we can only assume is Smurfette's ultimate quest to break the Smurf ceiling and become the first female postmaster general in Smurf Village.
Is It Any Good?
By pairing a common physics-based puzzle game with those adorable blue village people, this will entertain fans of both for a good long while. In Smurfs Bubble Story -- like in similar bubble games -- players have to fling a colored bubble at other bubbles of the same color. Connecting three or more causes them to pop, which can release whatever it is you're trying to break free. But while this is, for the most part, similar to other games of this ilk, it does switch things up sometimes. For instance, while most of these kinds of games show you the whole path the bubble will follow when you bank it off the side, this one doesn't; it only shows you part of the path -- that is, unless you activate the power-up that highlights the entire path. While not being able to see the path doesn't radically alter things, it does add a little more difficulty, and guessing, to the proceedings. The different Smurfs also have their own special abilities, and populating Smurf Village with your favorite characters serves as a nice meta game. That said, Smurf haters need not apply. While this game doesn't have them repeating their Smurf saying over and over -- it actually has no voice-over -- anti-Smurfers will still get annoyed seeing so many of these little blue weirdos. But if you love the Smurfs and such similar games as Bubble Witch, you'll have a Smurftastic time Smurfing Smurfs Bubble Story.
