| history | Bubble Symphony (c) 1994 Taito. Eight years since the introduction of the renowned puzzle maze game "Bubble Bobble" comes its upgraded reincarnation with more excitement.

This game is also known as "Bubble Bobble II". In the attract mode title sequence, Bubblun appears in front of a closed red curtain announcing, 'Ladies and Gentlemen, this is... Bubble Symphony!' The curtain then opens on the cast of enemies as follows (rows are numbered from bottom to top) : * Row 1 (L-R) : Flhoop, Uni Bo, Drunk, Banebou, Invader, Zen-Chan, Mighta, Rappappa, Catch Maru, Roboj, Hattonton * Row 2 (L-R) : Monsta, Komso, Kabukky, Mya-Ta, Heita-Kun, Warurin, Hidegonsu, No-No, Upper, Ame Da-Ma, PulPul * Row 3 (L-R) : Robol, Rocketl, Yuki-Bombo, Mummy, Chu-Chu Man, Jiji Poppo, Kiri Kabu Kun, Bolt Man, Strong Shell * Row 4 (L-R) : Dorabo, Ouji Sama, Knightron, Dranko, Magician, Denkyu-Kun, Ankororin * Not pictured : Puka Puka, Bake Couchin, Killer Hijia, Ti Ta Ma, Kasabe, Kon-Chan, Mimic, Skel, Nyororin, Rascal, Yu Bo, Unicoron, Cerberorin, Kabu-Chan, YZK-Takami, Golem The enemy known as 'Catch Maru' can be seen in 2 different color schemes - one with a blue robe and purple shoes (as seen in the attract mode title sequence), and one with a green robe and blue shoes. The game forbids the initials 'SEX' on the high score table. If you try, it gets changed to 'H !'. There are a grand total of 164 rooms in the game, including 18 boss rooms. - UPDATES - The US version is slightly different, it has the 'Recycle It, Don't Trash It!' screen. In 'Super' mode, accessible after entering the 'Game mode select' code (see 'Tips and Tricks' below), enemies are switched around, as follows (Legend : 'Normal' mode monster --> 'Super' mode monster) : Zen-Chan --> Warurin (and vice-versa) Mighta --> Dranko (and vice-versa) Monsta --> Yu Bo PulPul --> Strong Shell (and vice-versa) Banebou --> Kasabe (and vice-versa) Hidegonsu --> Hattonton Drunk --> Chu-Chu Man Invader --> Flhoop Flhoop --> Bolt Man Yuki-Bombo --> Drunk Mya-Ta --> Yuki Bombo Chu-Chu Man --> Hidegonsu Magician --> Knightron (and vice-versa) Komso --> Cerberorin (and vice-versa) Catch Maru (in blue robe and purple shoes) --> No-No Catch Maru (in green robe and blue shoes) --> Kabu-Chan Mummy --> Unicoron Puka Puka --> Bake Couchin Ame Da-Ma --> Nyororin Upper --> Kiri Kabu Kun (and vice-versa) Bake Couchin --> Ame Da-Ma Hattonton --> Roboj Ti Ta Ma --> Robol (and vice-versa) Heita-Kun --> Jiji Poppo Kabukky --> Uni Bo (and vice-versa) Nyororin --> Puka Puka Ouji Sama --> Mummy Yu Bo --> Golem Rappappa --> Ouji Sama Golem --> Monsta Roboj --> Mya-Ta Unicoron --> Rappappa Kabu-Chan --> Heita-Kun Bolt Man --> Invader Jiji Poppo --> Catch Maru (in blue robe and purple shoes) No-No --> Catch Maru (in green robe and blue shoes) Monsters not listed remain the same. - TIPS AND TRICKS - * Always access secret rooms : Before inserting your coin, at the intro screen with the curtain, press Jump, Bubble, Jump, Bubble, Jump, Bubble, Left, Start.
