About Bubble Runner

The figure runs forward by itself in this running game, so your whole job is moving it left and right.

Blocks, saw blades and knives tear pieces off your bubble body every time you hit them. Loose bubbles on the track let you grow back, and if every bubble pops before the end, the run is lost.

Your runner stays on the path and never falls off the edges, but it is bulky. At full size it has a hard time squeezing through tight spaces and past some hazards.

Boost pads give you a short burst of speed, and ramps launch you over obstacles and whole parts of the course. Each course ends with a flying stretch where you guide a bubble to the finish line.

Gems lie along the courses as an extra reward in this arcade runner. You spend them on new skins for your bubbles, and more skins unlock as you progress. The courses also get more dangerous the further you go.

Quick summary

  • You start each course with a body made of many bubbles that runs forward on its own.
  • You steer left and right to dodge hazards and pick up extra bubbles and gems.
  • Boost pads speed you up and ramps throw you over parts of the course.
  • The course ends with a flying stretch to the finish line, and you lose if every bubble pops first.

Key features

  • Saw blades, knives and blocks rip pieces off your body on contact.
  • Your wide bubble body makes narrow gaps harder to get through.
  • Gems buy new skins for your bubbles, and more skins unlock with progress.
  • Courses become more dangerous as you move on.

Tips & tricks

  • Hug the sides of the path when you can, since your bulky body struggles in tight spaces.
  • Watch where a ramp leads before you take it so you do not fly past bonuses.
  • Be ready to steer right after a boost pad, because the extra speed can carry you straight into a hazard.
  • After a hit, grab loose bubbles quickly to rebuild your body before the next obstacle.
