Set off an explosion. If any dots happen to drift into your explosion while it is exploding, they will also explode. The goal is to start a chain reaction to explode as many dots as you can, with a certain minimum required to pass each level. There are only 12 levels, but they get hard fast.
Neat! I like how they start throwing in black dots!
OK, beat it. Good waste of 30 minutes.
Well, I am either a natural genius or very lucky. I never developed any sort of strategy other than clicking around and no level took more than 3 tries. Funny thing, on level 10, I somehow managed to get only two in one occasion.
I got to level 12 without a hitch, but now the dots are like friggin’ Han Solo in an asteroid field! I can consistently get 50-54, but not 55!! Dang you friedo!
ETA: I finally beat it. WTF, there could at least be a Pacman-esque cartoon at the end.
Hehe…we just keep coming back to this game, don’t we? 
And hell no, I’m not going there again…it already sucked up enough of my time… 
I did it! Bwa ha ha!
The game is like a disease - I keep saying “Infect! Infect the others, c’mon!”
Agggh! 54!
On the later levels, I’ve found that this sometimes works:
-Look where the slow dots are headed - you’ll need to be clicking somewhere ahead of these if you want them to wander into the boom zone in time.
-Waiting for a big vacant space to open up and clicking in it (but not too close to the edge) - after all, everything is on the move, so the empty space is where the dots will be, in a moment - clicking on what appears to be a dense cluster of dots can be frustrating and unproductive because often, the boom doesn’t expand fast enough to catch the dots moving out of the cluster.
I must say, I really like the sound track. Sort of like SimCity 4 meets that bouncy-ball commercial for the monitor company.
Actually, it’s the music from the climactic scene of the upcoming biopic about me. You know, the part where I (played by Johnny Depp, Brad Pitt and Edward Norton, alternating) save the world by disabling the bomb that will kill everyone, at the very last second.
Right after the scene where I teach robots how to love, set to the music of Daft Punk.
Unitl level 12, I found that clicking as quickly as possible (quick clicking=quilicking?) in the middle of the screen always worked. Easing back from the screen and squinting while allowing my subconscious to process the flight patterns of all the dots while assessing probabilities of boomshine interactionworked best on level 12 (on the ninth try).
It’s interesting - I’ve noted the perceptual similarity to the Sony ad before, but where are the real similarities in the music? The Sony ad is acoustic guitar and vocals, Boomshine is piano and tom drums - I don’t think they’re really all that similar except that they both have a sort of understated twiddly meandering quality (music experts please feel free to comment on technical similarities that I am not qualified to understand), and yet the way they imprint on the memory is strikingly similar.
Of course the bouncy coloured dots probably do a lot to reinforce this perception
I guess it’s because it’s sort of quiet and soothing but also what I would call driving if the music were louder. It gets from one place to another. And as you say it has that twiddling meandering thing to it, as well as the bouncy coloured dots.
How could I forget Gael Garcia Bernal? :smack:
Yes. Very soothing. I like.
way more therapeutic than bubble wrap.
