About game

Staring at a blank screen during a midday slump is the worst, but a quick logic challenge can reset your focus in seconds. Balloons Rhombics transforms the classic bubble shooter genre into a clever geometric puzzle that demands both precision and patience. You navigate a diamond-shaped board, launching colorful spheres to trigger satisfying chain reactions by grouping three or more of the same hue. Predicting your next move is crucial because the game shows you exactly which color is coming up next in the queue. You must use the aiming line to thread your shots perfectly, clearing the board while minimizing your total move count. If your aim falters and you miss a match, you incur a foul that slowly pushes the remaining rows toward the center. This unique mechanic adds a layer of tension to an otherwise relaxing experience. Mastering the board requires careful planning to eliminate specific colors entirely from the rotation. Experience this addictive take on bubbles for free directly in your browser with zero downloads required.

How to play

Move your mouse or pinched finger across the screen to aim with the pointer line.
Click the left mouse button or release your finger to shoot.

The balloon will not always land where you want it to.

If it lands next to a group of at least two balloons of the same colour, they will all explode.

If there are less than two or none, you get a foul.
The number of fouls available is shown in the top right corner of the screen.
When it reaches zero, the rows of balloons move closer to the centre.

The colour of the next balloon is shown in the bottom left corner.
If you pop all the balloons of a colour, no more balloons of that colour will appear, even if a balloon of that colour is placed next (it will be replaced by a balloon of an available colour).

If you pop all the balloons on the board, you win the game.
At the top left of the screen is the number of moves you have made in this game.

On the bottom right is the settings button.
The settings menu allows you to restart the level.
