More about this game
Compete against three opponents to pump a balloon as large as possible within 10 seconds. Tap or hold to inflate, but beware: past 60%, the risk of a random burst rises, and hitting 100% guarantees a pop. Press the lock button to secure your size before disaster strikes. The run ends when time runs out or all competitors have locked or popped, with the largest intact balloon taking the win.
Tips
- The Perfect Zone starts at 90%, but the risk of a random burst increases significantly the closer you get to 100%.
- Holding the pump button inflates the balloon rapidly, so switch to tapping when you get close to your target size to avoid popping.
- Opponents often aim for 90% to 99%, but the Legend opponent sometimes pushes too far and pops, giving you an easy win.
Questions
Why did my balloon pop before 100%?
Once your balloon passes 60% capacity, there is a random chance it will burst with every pump. The risk scales up the larger the balloon gets.
How do I beat the Legend opponent?
The Legend opponent targets between 92% and 99%. You must take a high risk and pump deep into the Perfect Zone, or hope they push too far and burst.
What happens if time runs out?
If the 10-second timer reaches zero before you press the lock button, your balloon's current size is automatically secured as your final score, provided it hasn't popped.
