Marble Tumble
Marble Tumble is a glossy 3D bubble shooter played with glass marbles on a toymaker’s desk. Match three colours, knock out whole clusters and watch them tumble down the felt into the gutter to earn powerful marbles like Steel, Banger and Prism. How far can you get before the marbles reach the tape measure?
About
Marble Tumble is a 3D bubble shooter set on a toymaker's desk. Fire glass marbles up a felt board to match three or more of the same color. Matched marbles pop loose along with any left hanging without support drop and roll down the felt into the gutter. Every marble that reaches the gutter fills your jar. A full jar gives you a power-ups such as Steel, Banger, Prism, Zap or Paint. Clear the board to finish a level and earn bonus points and extra shots. Mystery marbles and ice blocks add a new challenge as you progress through the levels. The run ends if you run out of shots or the marbles reach the tape measure. Your progress and best score are saved automatically.
How to Play
Drag on the board to aim and let go to fire the marble in the launcher. Land it next to marbles of the same colour to make a group of three or more and pop them. Marbles that are no longer connected to the top fall and roll away, so aim for the marbles holding big clusters in place. Bounce shots off the side rails to reach awkward spots. Tap the launcher or the next marble to swap them and drag back below the tape measure to cancel a shot. Tap a power-up slot to load it, then fire it like a normal marble. The marbles creep closer after every shot so clear the board before they reach the tape measure or you run out of shots.

Tips
- Dropping marbles scores more than popping them, so target the few marbles holding up a big cluster.
- Drop 10 or more marbles with one shot to win a bonus shot, or two bonus shots for 20 or more.
- Marbles that roll into the moving brass pocket score triple points and add extra to your jar.
- Use the side rails for bank shots into gaps you can't reach directly.
- The dotted aim line and ghost marble show exactly where your shot will land.
- Swap to your next marble whenever it makes a better match.
- Steel ploughs straight through the board and knocks out every marble in its path.
- Prism pops every group it touches, whatever the colour.
- Banger blasts away everything around where it lands, and Zap clears two whole rows.
- Paint turns the marbles around it into its colour, then pops the lot.
- Mystery marbles show a question mark until you hit them or pop marbles next to them, then reveal their real colour.
- Ice blocks need two hits to shatter, but Steel, Banger, Zap and Prism break them in one.
- Your marble bounces off ice, so use it to ricochet shots into new spots.
- Back-to-back matches build a combo that multiplies your score.
- Power-up slots glint when neither of your marbles has a colour you can hit, which is the perfect moment to use one.
