Community Insight:
This game with wonderful art style has been installed in our android phone for at least five years, with all achievements acquired. We are totally obsessed. So we decided to buy it for our new iPad, in order to have a better gaming experience on a lager screen. The smooth gaming brings back the joy. But To our disappointment, the graphics are presented in low resolution, with the edges of orbs blurring and some texts blurry too This makes the artwork less charming. Maybe our device is not supported yet? (Air 5.
Sparkle 2 is the best marble shooter game out there. But Im stuck in the Nightmare level and cant get out. How do we restart a level in an easier mode.
This is the best Marble Game out there. It was designed perfectly. There are no flaws. Just fun~.
Bought the game just because developer continues to update and support the game for the newest devices, thank you.
We were looking for the game like this! Used to play when we were a kid And this game looks amazing, love the graphics, no ads, totally worth it.
So not worth the price. Not enough levels, good graphics but very disappointing.
Been working our way through the bubble shooter games and found this one to be the standout! Each game is different and doesnt seem to become repetitive like the other bubble games Ive played. The only criticism is that some of the options get in the way of shooting bubbles and unexpectedly changing the shooters properties as it easy to miss them in the heat of battle so to speak. All in all, it feels like Sparkle sets the standard metric for bubble shooting games -.
Something about this game makes it playable, intense, satisfying, and a pleasure to play. If you like quick-thinking reflex games this game can not be beat. Also love the Unleashed sequel. Playing both again now and loving them both again! Worth every penny.
So good we re-downloaded it and am playing it through again.
This is a really fun game we recommend it. We can't wait for number three to come out.
This game is relaxing and intense if that makes sense. The music is very nice and it's kind of an intense game we guess. Yes that what we mean lol. Buy it.
We love how it keeps the same style of the last sparkle, but with improvements. We like the new music, powerups, etc. The levels and backgrounds are beautiful. The story is short and to the point yet enticing. We're sure we'll be playing this for countless hours like we did the original. Hopefully this game gains some notoriety. Keep these coming.
Once purchased, you will b addicted, so you'll want to come up with ways to challenge yourself. A good way to do this is to do a Chuao Challenge. Our fav is Baconluxious. If u just eat this bar, it is a waste. The true flavors are not released by chewing it. You have to have a game like Sparkle and Sparkle2, to fully appreciate this expensive treat. Take a square and let it slowly melt on your tongue as you plow throw level after level. Enjoy! Only drawback of game is that you cannot reset/restart without keys. Is the same true in PS3 version.
Best of the Best Keep up the good work.
Truly, this is one of the best iOS games we have ever played. Been playing it for 2 or 3 years now. A classic. And very challenging at the higher levels.
Brilliant!!! We Should Be Working On Sparkle 3.
We love this game!! When will they make another one.
At times, we got frustrated with the original Sparkle, mainly because if we encountered a hard level a failed it several times, the game would restart from the very beginning. Very frustrating for a casual player! This version doesn't do that and it makes it easy to pick up and play once in a while. Thank you.
One of the best orb shooter games we've ever played. Well worth the price, and more than worthy of the Sparkle legacy. It just feels a little short. But if you only have a short amount of time, it's the perfect game.
We really love this game. Very easy and fun.
So glad to be able to purchase such a fun game that doesn't try to charge us with every move. Wonderful game. Pleasant play for many hours. Great for the kids, too.
Sparkle 1 is one of our all time favorite games that we have played over and over. Sparkle 2 takes Sparkle 1 to the next level. Super polished retina graphics, fun addictive gameplay, and a soundtrack that sounds so awesome as good as if not better than the biggest mega summer blockbuster hit movie- Jonathan Geer is a talented composer and this is coming from another composer — we composed the music for Space Book Planets by Clever Genius.
Love it. New story-plot, new power ups, and new levels. As for playing, once you start you can't stop.
This app is great it's really fun and we think it was worth the 4.99. We get to challenge ourselves.
Love this game we're already addicted.
Really fun and very addictive! A great way to pass the time.
This is fun to play and we love to explore the different areas…keep the levels coming please.
Love this game… One of our favorite games that we love to play everyday, lately it's crashing a lot. Please fix.
We loved the first one, we have enjoyed this one even more.
We've all played this type of match 3 to death by now but somehow Sparkle just feels like something special. More than the sum of it's parts.
Absolutely fantastic. We used to think nothing could compare to the Luxor series, but… This one is even better. Gorgeous graphics and awesome gameplay – with a nice story line too. If you like this kind of game, this is a winner! We would go on, but you should stop reading this, and get it.
Best game ever. Far superior to Stoneloops. Love ir.
Fantastic graphics and colors make this a stunning game; good music and sound effects, too.
We really enjoy this game! Like the first one and this on the iPad is easier and super fun.
Loved the original game, but the second one has new sound effects and the visual effects are stunning. It's like a remake of a really good movie but it blows you away.
We never played the first version, came upon this by chance, awesome game, addictive, just about worth the price.
We've always liked these games and this is the best yet. Seems spendy but we still remember a time when $5.00 would've been unheard of for a game. Cheap for the amount of fun to be had.
We love these sparkle games… A bit pricey this time though… Fun.
Love the game challenging especial the survivor mode.
No glitches for us on iPhone 5. Great time killer and so far our favourite in this type of genre. Hope there is more.
Esta app es la primera compra que hago en la AppStore y realmente lo vale ! :D.
This is a worthy sequel of the original sparkle. This is probably one of the best time killer games around as well as being incredibly addictive. The attention to detail on the orbs is amazing in sparkle 2. The whole thing is quite enchanting. Coming from the original sparkle, it's also noticeably easier on normal difficulty especially with all the enchantments you can add to your thrower, but that doesn't make it any less fun. Another masterpiece by 10 tons. We'd enthusiastically recommend sparkle to anyone. It's our favorite mobile game because of the timeless replayability. The new challenge modes are really fun too if you're feeling extra sporty with your orb throwing skills. You won't be disappointed with the purchase.
We are enjoying Sparkle 2 quite a lot. It's a great game and will probably lead us to buy others from this developer. We have also been playing King Oddball from 10tons. Keep making great games folks.
Luv the music, and it's a quick pace game. Pay the 5.00 bucks, it doesn't ask for power up money so far.
Our wife and we decided to try it and haven't been able to put it down since. Also, more challenging than we would have thought.
But this is even more fun. We love the power ups & the challenges…. Hours & hours of fun.
A fun game. Play when you want, as long as you want to without having to pay as you play. We bought the game with no regrets.
We haven't played the original so we can't compare it but this by far the most fun marble shooter game since Zuma's Revenge! Some have said that it's easier or not as challenging but this game is so addicting with the beautiful graphics and great dramatic music! We most definitely recommend.
Highly immersive due to great sound effects and music. Great visuals as well. Fun game.
The graphics are amazing and the game is both challenging and addicting.
