How to play Gumdrop Garden
Gumdrop Garden is a one-minute bubble shooter. A tall field of gumdrops in three colours slowly creeps down toward your cannon, and you have 60 seconds to score as much as you can. Aim, bounce your shot off the walls and match three or more of a colour. Gumdrops cut loose from the top fall for double points, and new rows keep arriving from above, so the garden never runs out.
Every popping shot builds your combo and raises what each gumdrop is worth. Ten hits in a row load a fireball that burns straight through everything in its way. Pop a big cluster in one shot (20, 30 or 45 gumdrops) for a large bonus. If a gumdrop reaches the cannon the round is over at once.
Between rounds you earn coins and experience. Spend coins on boosts: extra time gumdrops that add 3 seconds, a painter that colours a whole area, a bomb that clears it, and an aiming light that shows the full flight. Higher levels unlock more boosts and add a score bonus. Each colour has its own mark, so colours are easy to tell apart.
