Bobble Bash is a fun and engaging activity where players navigate obstacles to score points and emerge victorious. The game is similar to Bobble League, featuring turn-based strategy and physics.

How to Start Bobble Bash
Starting Bobble Bash is simple and can be done through the Discord application in several ways. Whether in a server's voice channel or a direct message, you can follow the instructions in the Discord Activities section to begin. However, it's important to note that some mobile devices may not meet the minimum requirements for Bobble Bash, potentially causing slower gameplay.

How to Play Bobble Bash
Voting for a Series
Before the game starts, players vote for a series. Two out of five available series will appear on the screen. Each series consists of four levels leading to victory. There is also a Random Series option, which selects four levels from any series.
Bobble Bash can accommodate up to 8 active players. Once 8 players have voted, a "Game Full" message will appear. Players who prefer to spectate can disable voting and automatically join the spectator queue when the game starts. Spectators can join an ongoing game by clicking the "join game" button and starting from the next level.
Starting the Game
When at least one player has voted for a series, the countdown begins. Once it reaches zero, all players who voted will enter the first stage of the chosen series. To move your Bobble and score points, click (or tap) and drag to aim. The color and length of the target arrow indicate the power and distance of your move.
Players earn points by collecting diamonds, gems, and stars. Points are also awarded for colliding with obstacles and other players. Some levels feature specific targets or waypoints that grant additional points.
Earning Badges and Tracking Stats
At the end of each level, bonus points are randomly awarded based on specific actions—or inactions—performed by players during the game. You can view the badges you’ve earned, check your lifetime points, and boast about the number of matches or series you’ve won.
Players can view their stats by selecting "My Stats" on the series voting screen. By clicking on their avatars, players and spectators can access statistics, and at the end of a series, all participants can view their stats, while spectators can see the Grand Champion's stats.
Becoming the Champion
The player with the most points at the end of each level wins that level. The player with the highest score at the end of the series is crowned the champion. If a player wins a series, a victory crown appears above their avatar in the next series.
