    Slaving peon.
    Not here; not there; not anywhere!
    I like the new bubbles. They're far less bland than their precessors.

    Decided to buy just last week; good fun, and really decent number of levels albeit a lot of them quite simple –*still, even story mode is more reliable for quick fun that the equivalent in Bubble Bash. It would be nice to have a 'random story level' menu option though, to reduce the number of taps required to get into the fun.

    Challenge mode is good fun but it doesn't seem to ramp up in difficulty much. Also, it has told me twice that a new title has been achieved ... but where does one see the titles?

    Also is there any chance of vs CPU mode in the future? I think it would be a real nice addition and hold the attention longer.

    Good times.

    This needs online play. I might get it anyway, but it's disappointing to hear that you can't play vs. the CPU. I doubt I'll ever get to play against somebody else via bluetooth. In fact I've never played a local 2 player game with any iPhone game. Nobody I know ever has the game.

    Yeah it's annoying. Most of the time I'm not near anyone I know that has an iPhone anyway, and even when I am, it would be difficult to convince them to get the game just to play a little on BT.

    I managed to play a couple of games of Flipside with a friend that way, but that was quite a one-off situation. Makes me wonder if an iPod Touch might be a good buy; then you could at least hand one device to another person for the purpose :).

    But yes, this one needs at least vs CPU play.

    Purchases started working yesterday. Seems like there are 4 or even more packs of 50 levels for 'puzzle mode', which is really no different from the story mode. Cooperative mode is a lot of fun; I've run through all 50 levels over the last couple of days with the help of some of my young cousins. Good fun, and some quite difficult levels; things are especially hard for the fact that the board moves down quite frequently with twice the balls being fired.

    Pretty pleased overall, hopefully they will add a vs cpu mode later as well!

    is the Cooperative Mode not working properly? the screen gets cut off in half. I tried playing with 2 iPhones together but it does not really connect via Bluetooth - works fine for Vs Mode - anyone have this problem? I'm trying to get all of the achievements...

    So, they put this on Christmas sale but the description says it's not working with iOS 8. I suppose it won't work with iOS 9 either? (Still at 8, anyhow, but curious nonetheless)

    The new one works fine but they put horrible blue bands to hide the fact that it doesn't take the entire screen... Pity
