Bubble Bobble
Also known as: Bubble Bobble NES
Bubble Bobble is a platform game, with each level being a single screen. The enemies must be cleared from a level to go to the next one. With one player controlling Bub and the other controlling Bob, the player can jump and collect items for points (such as fruit). The real power Bub and Bob have however is the ability to blow bubbles. These bubbles can be as platforms to leap on, or to trap enemies. Enemies trapped in a bubble must be popped by jumping into them, wherein they'll turn to fruit. Additionally, power-ups sometimes float by in bubbles. They include lightning, which flies out horizontally at enemies, and water, which drags the player and enemies straight down flowing over platforms. Taking too long to complete any level will summon Baron Von Blubba, who will float around the screen trying to destroy the player.

Description
BUBBLE BOBBLE's release in 1986 introduced the two bubble dragons, Bub
and Bob, and brand new play mechanics, with players defeating enemies by
trapping them in bubbles and then popping them. Although the
puzzle-action game can be beaten by clearing all 100 rounds, it also
contains secret elements such as not being able to get the "true ending"
in single-player mode; hidden commands that lead to secret rounds; and a
ton of different items. These elements are some of the game's most
memorable and important features. Each round even has different air
currents that are not visible, so bubbles rise in unpredictable
patterns. Aspects like forcing players to understand and utilize these
different patterns while playing help make this a revolutionary game
that is fun to play anytime.
