Today, I-play’s “Bubble Town: Party Planet” was launched on Facebook. This was after a 4-month beta period that was made successful by more than 250,000 monthly active users. To commemorate this event, I-play will have a lottery with the following prices:
- an 8GB iPod touch with Bubble Town 2
- a copy of Bubble Town Deluxe for PC or Mac
- 10,000 BubbleBucks to spend in Bubble Town: Party Planet
“Bubble Town: Party Planet” is a puzzle game developed from the popular “Bubble Town”, a Facebook application that was played more than 120 million times. Bubble Town is populated by Borbs, which are bubble-like creatures with hair and faces. The goal of the game is to remove all the Borbs at the top of the screen by shooting them down with Borbs of the same species, from the chute at the bottom of the page.
This newly launched game allows the player not only to play the puzzles created by I-play, but also arrange challenges for friends.
Features of this game, that was not in the beta version, include: a virtual economy that allows players to purchase BubbleBucks that can be used to pay for extra level packs, power ups, gifts, etc; and a leaderboard that allows players to track their and others’ standing, achievements, and awards.
So start playing by going to the Facebook app (http://apps.facebook.com/bubbletown). Who knows? Besides enjoying this classic game, you might even win the iPod touch.
