Cloud Workshop · Bubble Pinball

Cloud Workshop: new pieces, bosses and tips

What it introduces: the first three colours (cyan, coral and yellow), the colour lanes, charge rings, pop bumpers, drop targets and the LIFT and CASCADE ramps. The small bubbles arrive in shapes (a heart on table 1, columns, flowers, stars) and bring the special bubbles one by one: clock, bomb, rainbow and gold. From table 12 fragile bubbles answer the wrong colour with a new bubble, table 14 sets the bubbles drifting on a current and table 17 brings the first invasion.

Brass Guardian (table 15) is a hard table: its big bubbles wear double shells that grow back after 40 seconds, so never leave one half-cracked. The Great Cauldron (table 20) fights in three phases: its boilers change colour every few seconds, so wait for the one that matches your ball; then it spits a barrage of bubbles that sink towards the flippers, and at the end its core opens.

One of the toughest tables before the bosses is Copper Fog (table 18), marked red on the map: four big bubbles with double shells and a tighter clock. Pick the colour in the top lanes before each shot, go for the cluster anchors first and do not lose the ball: every drain costs five seconds.
