Review
The game reminds a bit of Tetris though the situation is quite different. The game title, Poppers, speaks for itself; you have to pop two balls of the similar color to make them disappear. However, if three balls of the same color are available you have to think carefully before making a choice. The aim is to bring down the whole pyramid having about five tries to destroy the one. Pyramids are not getting more complicated with each level and the difficulty level seems to always be the same. Graphically the game is far from being a masterpiece and turns out to be extremely plain. Still logic and deep thinking are more important here so basic graphics can be ignored in favor of a brilliant puzzle idea. Fast winning is almost impossible so the game is ideal for those who like to thoroughly consider every move they take.
