Walkthrough Videos are available on YouTube by AppUnwrapper. Please note that the videos contain spoilers. We recommend using in-game hints because the solution is revealed gradually. Many puzzles have multiple solutions and these videos show only one way to solve each puzzle.

Always pay attention to the current goal and tips at the bottom of each game. These round badges are changing constantly as you progress from level-to-level. The goal of the current level is always a blue badge. Read every tip for hints at the solution. Sometimes even the level name can be a hint!

Consider that you only have a limited number of moves per play. It takes at least 2 moves to make a mixed color (such as green, orange, or purple) from an empty bubble. Focus on matching primary colors like red, blue, and yellow. Sometimes it's better to just pop a single mixed color bubble (by cutting on the outside with the scissors) than to try and match with it. Brown bubbles are even worse, they require at least 3 moves to create from empty.

Wilds are important to make often (when enabled). Wilds not only help you make matches, but when the wild finally pops, a wild will release one additional color for each non-wild bubble that it matches. Collecting these additional released colors will help you get groups of 10 of a single color, which will earn you additional moves when the "bounty" is offered on that puzzle.

First, don't be afraid to use hints. Most puzzles have multiple hints. Hints are designed so that the first few hints don't give away the solution, they just help "point you in the right direction." Secondly, hints tell you where to cut or fill but they don't tell you when to make the move. In many puzzles, the timing of when you fill a bubble can make a difference.

These puzzles are all about injecting (filling) color into bubbles QUICKLY. The pressure builds up as you're filling, causing the bubbles to get larger than they normally would, but only for a brief moment. Don't pause when you move from filling one bubble to the next. Try filling the bubbles asymmetrically so they are not all the same size. Play with different ways to fill them so the star bubbles come together between the other shadow bubbles.

Notice that the stars are not in Shadow bubbles. This means their edges can be cut. Save your scissor moves solely for the purpose of moving the stars closer together by combining their bubbles with neighbors. Keep the star bubbles empty of color. Keep the jelly crab away by making some purple bubbles. The red ones are bound to match with the ones that Bloop is blowing. Find a way to get rid of that large red bubble in the center without causing the bottom star to get eaten. That large bubble in the center makes it harder to bring the stars together.

The Foam School world will teach you how to mix the basic colors, but these combinations can be difficult to remember. There are two ways you can get help on this later in the game. First, on mobile devices, if you tap and hold on a bubble, or right-click on desktops, a little guide will pop up and show you how the current move will mix with the bubble's color. The second way is to pause the level and press the (?) button. Here you'll see some helpful color mixing animations. After some practice, you'll master the combinations and won't need to rely on the guides.

The Infinity Game was designed as a fun way to earn tickets, which can be used to get hints and powerups. Once the Infinity Game has unlocked, press the Infinity button on the map screen (usually located at the bottom). For mobile players, you can find out when to play again by watching your notifications.
