Game InformerA solid 3D Othello, tic-tac-toe kind of a game. [Feb 2003, p.101]
-
The use of some power-ups makes the task slightly easier, but this game is challenging.
-
A sometimes overwhelming game that lacks the simplicity of the genre's most addictive titles.
-
The music is funky and the graphics are fresh and frenzied.
-
Is it addictive? Yes. I'm a "Bust-a-Move" junkie and I found that habit-forming gameplay in this game too.
-
The way the game taxes your mind isn’t necessarily enjoyable, and many times you’ll find yourself falling back to simple tactics just to survive, instead of creating elaborate, elegant combos.
-
It very quickly becomes tedious. Only look into this if you are a hardened puzzle fan.
-
Though the game draws inspiration from some of the more respected second-string puzzle games out there, Super Bubble Pop offers neither their depth nor their long-term appeal.
-
Nintendo PowerSince matches can be made only through stacking, game play can be limiting and monotonous. [Feb 2003, p.157]
-
The gameplay is fun, yet control issues and repetitiveness really gets on your nerves after a few hours. The lack of extras also hurts the replay value in a major way.
-
Another gripe is the 3D playfield. It's almost impossible to see the balls behind the balls that are in the front.
-
Not even in the same league as AAA puzzle offerings like "Bust-A-Move."

RyanM.May 27, 2004A decent puzzle game with crazy music that will keep you hanging on, on those overwhelming part of the game.
