Splash It! iPhone Game Review: Frenetic Bubble Popping Fun

Splash It! is an iPhone game developed by Talo. In this fast-paced bubble popper game, you need to splash colored sets of bubbles before they splash open on the barbed wire below. When three bubbles pass by you and hit the barbed wire, the game is over.

You can only pop colored bubbles on your screen if you have activated the matching colored light. This means you have ot have very fleet fingers indeed. At first, just three colors of bubbles are involved. As you progress, however, you will have to manage up to 5 different bubble colors.

The game offers several power-ups including bombs, “gold power” and extra life. The bombs give you the opportunity to splash all the bubbles on the screen by shaking your device. The “gold power” allows you to change the color of the bubbles to gold and every splash thereafter gets you extra points and coins.

There are three levels of difficulty in Splash It!, though you will need to save 500 points to unlock Medium difficulty, plus 1000 points to unlock the Hard difficulty setting.

The visuals are simple, but effective. The quasi-New Age ambient music that accompanies the game will try to keep you mellow. I wonder if playing this game with a more energetic or aggressive soundtrack would increase your performance.

With Game Center support and a family-friendly vibe, Splash It! is an inexpensive game that’s worth adding to your app library. If you love classic arcade games that have you pop bubbles, this modern take on a classic game genre is fast-paced fun for kids and adults alike.

Splash It! is compatible with iPhone 3GS, iPhone 4, iPhone 4S, iPhone 5, iPod touch (3rd generation), iPod touch (4th generation), iPod touch (5th generation) and iPad. Requires iOS 4.3 or later. This app is optimized for iPhone 5.
