Bubble Pop Blast is a bubble-popping game with levels that feature a variety of tasks. The player might need to clear all bubbles from the field, as seen with many classic bubble shooters, or rescue baby dragons trapped in bubbles. No matter the mission, the player's goal is to earn three stars per level and collect coin winnings by creating and popping clusters of identical bubbles with as few moves as possible.
The game provides the player with a laser for an aiming line that matches the color of the primary bubble projectile (i.e., top position) of two bubbles on a ring shooter. It also gives them a clear bubble that doubles as a targeting sight. With these tools, the player can direct their shots at clusters above non-matching bubbles. The avalanche that happens when they create these clusters with a matching projectile reduces the overall number of projectiles they need for each shot.�
Bubble Pop Blast also offers boosters the player can use to complete their missions and clear playfields faster, including an explosive bomb booster and a laser-style beam booster. The player merely needs to complete successive removals of clusters in a streak to charge a booster when it becomes available to them. They can also buy a booster with coins or receive boosters as bonus rewards for achievements, daily play, lucky prize wheel spins and ad views.
Lastly, some bubbles on the field contain powerful tools that burst bubbles. For example, if the player creates and removes a cluster that contains a glowing flying object, the fly escapes and randomly bursts bubbles.
