How to Solve Bubble Match Level 1 — Full Solution
- Merge the brown-skinned man in the red-trimmed hat into the blonde woman in the yellow hat; Move falls from 35 to 34.
- Merge the far-right brown-haired woman in the wide tan hat into that pair; the hat cluster reaches three members and Move falls to 33.
- Merge the three-person hat cluster into the far-left woman in the tan bucket hat; People with Hats clears, Move falls to 32, and progress becomes 1/2.
- Merge the upper gray-haired woman with glasses into the lower-right gray-haired glasses portrait; Move falls from 32 to 31.
- Merge the lower-middle gray-haired glasses portrait into that pair; the elderly cluster reaches three members and Move falls to 30.
- Merge the three-person elderly cluster into the lower-left gray-haired person with glasses; Elderly with Glasses clears, Move falls to 29, and progress reaches 2/2.
- Wait for the empty-board confetti and WELL DONE card that confirm the level is complete.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Grouping portraits only because they are all people instead of using the hats and glasses as the exact boundaries.
- Moving a gray-haired glasses portrait into the hat cluster before all four hat wearers are collected.
- Stopping when a cluster contains four members without confirming its category label and the 2/2 clear state.
Quick Tips for Bubble Match Level 1 (quick clues)
- Start with the red-trimmed-hat man and the blonde woman in the yellow hat.
- Add the wide-tan-hat woman before moving the three-person cluster to the bucket-hat woman.
- After People with Hats clears, every remaining portrait belongs to Elderly with Glasses.
Board notes 5 details
- Layout
- The board starts at Move 35 and 0/2 with four hat wearers across the middle, one gray-haired woman with glasses above them, and three more elderly glasses portraits along the bottom.
- Goal
- Clear the four hat wearers as People with Hats, clear the other four portraits as Elderly with Glasses, empty the board, and reach the 2/2 WELL DONE state.
- Opening
- Merge the brown-skinned man in the red-trimmed hat into the blonde woman in the yellow hat, reducing Move from 35 to 34 and forming the first two-person hat cluster.
- Danger Zone
- All eight bubbles show people, but only four wear hats; mixing a hat wearer with the gray-haired glasses portraits breaks both exact four-member groups.
- Mechanics
- The tutorial uses one accessory category and one compound age-plus-accessory category, each requiring four members and three successful merges.
