I picked up the game again after taking about six months off…actually the game slipped my mind until I saw an ad for Lumosity a few weeks ago. Today I hit my best score in Word Bubbles Rising: [13700](http://i1178.photobucket.com/albums/x363/finkleas/Screen%20Shot%202015-11-23%20at%204.44.11%20AM.png), passing Mercury in the process.

My high scores are typically in the 11,000 range now.

There’s a new verbal fluency game in Lumosity called Word Bubbles (new). It is basically the same concept as Word Bubbles Rising but, for reasons I haven’t yet determined, I seem to do much better in the new game than in Word Bubbles rising in that I get all the stars much quicker and easier. Although the scoring is different than in Word Bubbles Rising, my average score is in the 210,000 range.
