Cookie & Bibi (often listed as Set 1) is a 1995 arcade puzzle game developed by Semicom that closely follows the classic Puzzle Bobble formula. Players take control of a cannon at the bottom of the screen to shoot colored blocks upward, aiming to match three or more of the same color to clear them before the ceiling descends and crushes you.
How to play
The objective is to clear the entire screen of colored blocks to advance to the next stage. Insert a coin (usually Shift or 5) and press Start (Enter or 1) to begin. Aim your cannon using the Arrow keys, and press the action buttons (Z/X/C) to fire. You must match at least three blocks of the same color to make them disappear. If the blocks stack past the bottom line, it is game over.
Tips
- Use the walls to bounce your shots into hard-to-reach angles, which is essential for hitting blocks wedged behind other colors.
- Prioritize dropping large clusters. If you pop a group of blocks that are supporting others below them, the unsupported blocks will drop entirely, earning you extra points and saving time.
