Zuma game info
Gameplay
Shoot marbles at the chain of coloured marbles to create groups of three or more of the same color. These groups will disappear.
Aim with the Tiki stone by moving your mouse around, and shoot by clicking.
Power-ups
There are various power-ups in this game, each with a different effect. These power-ups appear in marbles in the chain. You can activate them by popping the marbles.
- Fire power-up: When the fire power-up is activated, you don’t have to match 3 marbles of the same colour anymore. You can just shoot fire at any marble and it will disappear.
- Lightning power-up: Once activated, the lightning power-up will shoot lightning beams in various directions and destroy multiple marbles at once.
- Bomb power-up: This will create an explosion, removing the neighbouring marbles at once.
Score and bonuses
You get 10 points for each marble that is removed.
If you create a chain reaction, you will get bonus points: the points per marble are doubled, and the scores for the previous explosions in the chain reaction are earned again.
How the bonus points are calculated is best explained with an example. Imagine you shoot a marble which creates a chain reaction popping 3, then 6 and again 6 marbles. This gives you 3 * 10 = 30 points for the first 3, then 30 + 2 * 6 * 10 = 150 for the next 6 marbles, and 150 + 2 * 6 * 10 = 270 for the last 6.
Levels
There are 45 levels waiting for you, with increasing difficulty. The first levels are quite easy, but don’t underestimate the later levels, as soon you will have to shoot at multiple chains at the same time!
Hints & tips
Did you know you can see not only the marble you are about to fire, but also the next one? It is shown in small in the Tiki stone.
If you don’t see a good place to fire the current marble, you can switch it with the next one by right-clicking, or clicking on the Tiki stone.
Game end
If the chain reaches the secret chamber, the game ends immediately.
