The first two modes have their own high score lists, and separate prizes - and you can participate in all competitions at the same time. The game features two modes of play: Rounds, Challenge or Tour de Zoo. Each round has a limited amount of animals to shoot, and your goal is always to reveal 9 stars in the top row of animals, while having as many animals as possible drop into the pipes at the bottom of the screen. The game is a free balloon game also called aim and shoot Bubble Shooter game and consists of shooting ball-shaped animals into a grid, so they gather in groups of three or more.
You can follow the current deadline under the game's high score list, or by keeping an eye on the chat messages. Two parallel competitions are taking place, for each game mode: One that ends every three hours, and one that ends every 24 hours. In Bubble Zoo you are constantly competing against other players in scoring the most points or reaching the highest round.
