So what do you think? Have you played Angry Birds Stella Pop!? Do you enjoy it? Are you looking to give it a try? We want to know!
eggciting!!!
Looks neat! Unfortunately it is not out on Windows yet. Oh well, it looks fun.
the pc games are discontinued
Downloaded and played the first 10 levels and it looks pretty fun so far.
Seems to share a lot of features with Candy Crush (!!!); only 5 free lives unless you buy extra or wait a certain time, unused bubbles result in great splashes very similar to what happens in CC.
Cute and fun so far.
I agree after watching the above video. Missed the post on this game and will have to give it a try.
@admins: will you make walkthroughs and a leaderboard?
@admins As well as a forum? :) AB Under Pigstruction has one.
We have no plans for Stella Pop, but if the demand is high we might reconsider. @chriss
@admins Since the Stella game forum is so slow maybe it should be changed to a Stella series forum for both of these games and any others that they make in the future.
Played 1st episode (15 levels) today and no absp mirror worlds at all. So let that speak for itself. If it´s like Candy Crush I will never know, since endless reruns of CC ads have made it impossible for me to ever touch that francise.
Couple of notions:
1) Where the heck are the highscores (please tell me not f***book)?
2) The 3* scores are all over the place (again, only worse). Some levels 3 starred at 1st run but on 5, 11 & 15 it appeared impossible.
Is it true that there is no other way of earning coins beside real $$$??? If so, I’m disappointed. Earnables, then buyables. I can start to see where this is going…
I’m downloading it now as I type this. :-)
Not crazy about all the balls bouncing around the sling on the timed levels, very difficult to pick and shoot the right ball.
@dmsral time limited levels are really difficult. I am stucked at level 46 and I don’t have coins to add more time as I spent them on openning pig gates.
Previous version had a bug that didn’t allow openning gates without spending coins i.e. each time player started game time counter starts from the beggining. So each time I openned game I had to wait 24 hours to open first gate (you have to open 3 gates so normally it would take 3 days to open them all).
@cosmo2503: I call these extortion levels.

been playing it since it soft launched in Canada. Fun to play but lose interest at some point.
Same here, was fun for a bit, but it grew old for me. Part of the reason is the same reason I’m annoyed with Pigstruction also, the dang life system. When I get a game, I want to play it when I want to play it, not when the game lets me. The life system pretty much destroys my enjoyment of playing levels over and over to get a better score.
Now I just need the other 2 to hit the States.
I wish I could transfer my AB Stella coins, I have earned (not purchased) 28k coins, it would be useful in this game.
BTW, you can refill your lives instantly for free by setting your device clock forward a bit – it also works in other similar games.
Just 27 hours have passed since the launch and look here – I’ve completed all 75 levels. :) https://youtu.be/iixPXGAQHyM
@Mighty-Red-1 :
3 starred all levels is possible ?
@grimmjow I think it is. The key to more points is accomplishing the objectives while popping as fewer bubbles as possible, because if you leave a lot of bubbles at the end, the flying critters will get hit more, and as you might know, the more hits, the more points.
@admins, @mighty-red-1 :
Other mattering fact to score points : never miss blow !
By making a success of successive knocks, insects in more appear. And when the maximum number of insects appeared (3 it seems to me), they change color (of green with pink), and get you more points.
At the moment I play to go until 75 levels, then I shall see for 3 stars.
It’s great that the critters never miss anything. But after you have the remaining bubbles that aren’t slinged, they fly away immediately. I notice that Luca is never featured in a level. Why could this be?
I love it! The newest way Rovio made a ab game is epic, but not as epic as Epic! I like bubble pop games!
It Seems I Have Some Animation Problem, in Poppy Levels, Poppy’s Eyes Are Out Of Line,kind of Looks Creepy,
But The Game Is Actually Pretty Fun!
@abginebird
Do you have the screenshot of it?
Sorry For Late Answer @sonnykero
Here Is The Link Of The Screenshot:

@abginebird
Thanks, But, it doesn’t look creepy.. It think its normal, just cartoon eyes
Yeah,It’s Normal For Me Now.
Yeah, he’s right.
Of the 3 Rovio bubble apps (Juice Cubes, Jolly Jam, Stella pop!), this for me is probably the most challenging and also the most fun…so far! That said, I do think the levels are rigged to some extent because regardless of whether I’ve had very few or a lot of sling balls remaining, the final scores can vary quite a lot, which seems very odd considering scores should be higher when you’ve completed a level using only a few shots.
I would also like to see a few improvements with the next update:
1. A replay button on the level complete screen because as it stands you have to exit and then reopen the level in order to try and improve your score.
2. An in-game score keeping system because unless you’re prepared to take screenshots and/or make manual notes, there’s no way of knowing what your high scores are.
Yes, I agree. Why are highscores dropped until the end?
@cosmo2503 @mighty-red-1 — is anyone able to beat the timed levels without spending coins? Is there any way to get coins without spending real $?
@mvnla2 I beat all 75 levels without using special bubbles or spending coins on extra bubbles or seconds. Currently there’s no way to earn anything in the game, which is a bummer, and if you think that’s bad, many levels have too high 3-star thresholds.
An ad can appear in-game which is a survey about Stella POP!, so you can provide all the feedback there. I already completed that survey – I wrote that ways to earn power-ups and coins are needed and that the 3-star thresholds need to be lowered (I only have 158 stars out of 225 at the moment).
@mvnla2, sadly I had to uninstall the game just for that frustrating fact I could not pass the beat the clock level! I spent all my coins and still couldn’t finish it, running out of time with at least 6 rows to finish. Grrrr!
I hope Rovio makes some major improvements in the next update, especially lowering the 3-star threshold. Adding more bubbles to fling, and awarding bonus bubbles (i.e., rainbow bubbles) more frequently without having to purchase them. And of course, more time on that clock
That’s just my 2 cents.
@SweetP — You lasted a lot longer than I did. I uninstalled it quite a while ago; then reinstalled it when Rovio or someone said they had increased the time (about a week ago); then uninstalled it a second time when it was obvious they had done nothing to the level I was stuck on (level 46).
@mvnla2 that would have been me. While the Spop update improved a few things, they still sadly ignored the highscore problem. Also I checked the timeouts only up to level 22 where I used to be stuck at. It´s unfortunate if they didn´t fix them all.
Fortunately Mirror Worlds provides a lot of fun and (on adroid 5.0) 2 methods for making video on my tablet. Might be occasionally back to Spop but not frequently.
@mvnla2 I actually passed levels 16 and 17 without having to pay. However I paid 12 coins for more time on level 22, which was nightmare for me, with those sticky balls and balls bouncing around slingshoot. IMO this game is crap, no way to complete it without spending some cash. Unlike all other F2P games it doesn’t offer any possibility to earn coins by playing or watching adds. I am stucked at 46 now, without coins and I am not sure if this is worth of spending real money on it.
@mighty-red-1 congratulations on completing game. You are great player, obviously….
@cosmo2503 Well, I have proved that this game is possible without IAPs. I didn’t even intend to spend money on this game. It’s just a matter of retrying a lot. Level 46 depends on strategic shots, it doesn’t hurt to pop some glass bubbles either, and make sure you earn Poppy’s power-up as often as you can.
I agree that this game lacks a lot of things. Aside from earning coins & power-ups, lowering the 3-star thresholds, I’ve just thought that an option to choose which bird to play a level with would also be a nice addition – it would definitely help in earning 3 stars. For example, I think that Poppy’s power-up would help earn 3 stars in level 11, the first level I’m having a hard time getting 3 stars in.
@cosmo2503 @mighty-red-1 — Is anyone playing with facebook friends? I’m stuck at the pig gate before level 46 with 6 coins, which are now useless unless I buy more coins. I foolishly bought some, spening more than I’ll admit, They vanish faster than you would believe. I believe level 44 is actually impossible to beat, unless you get the right combination of balls. With the wrong combination of balls, there comes a point where you can’t hit any of the remaining balls, no matter what color you have.
@mvnla2 I’m connected to Facebook. I can help you unlock the next part. I agree that there’s too much randomness in this game. Rovio definitely need to improve the game (I’m surprised they didn’t learn anything during the soft launch). You should save up your coins – they’re too valuable. Instead, just retry, and eventually the odds will work in your favor.
I’m really hoping the 3-star thresholds will be significantly reduced, because I have a reputation as an all-star player, and at the moment it looks like this game will ruin it. Right now I have 176 out of 225 stars.
@mighty-red-1 — Thanks! I can see your scores, but you don’t show up on the list of friends I can ask for lives or help unlocking gates. Not sure how the facebook friends is supposed to work in this game. Have not gotten any friends requests on facebook or within the game.
I think I did send you an cosmo each a life.
Unfortunately I spent all but 6 coins and those 6 are now worthless, because there is nothing you can buy for 6.
@mvnla2 I just checked my in-game messages and you were there – you sent me a life, asked me for a life and help unlocking further levels. I accepted everything so you should see me as one of the 3 friends on that gate.
Facebook friends can send you & ask you for lives and help unlock new areas. You can send a life to each of your friends once per day. If there are 2 life requests from the same friend, you’ll only be able to respond to one request while the other one will have to wait for 24 hours. That’s why some messages will not disappear.
@Mighty-red-1
Can I add you on FB ?
While I love bubble games and am doing fairly well I find the shooter balls difficult to control. Hopefully with more play I will do better. Bubble Witch 2 is much easier to control. I agree the timed levels are difficult with all the bubbles bouncing around, difficult to see your shooter ball.
So far I am loving this game. I love the graphics, the mechanics, the background music…I love just about everything about this game. I’m already ranking it alongside AB Star Wars II and AB Epic as one of my favorite AB games.
I do, however, have a few complaints, as no game is perfect. Firstly it’s nearly impossible to 3-star some levels, and there seems to be no way to earn coins in-game. My personal suggestion to Rovio: I think coins could be earned in a way similar to AB Stella, where popping random pigs will give you a single coin. The same thing could happen with random bubbles here.
I unlocked the episode, but Level 46 is still inaccessible for me. :/
Did you ever figure out how to access level 46? I have the same issue :-/
Surprisingly, quitting a level without any bubbles shot doesn’t remove a live similar to Candy Crush. Now that would be a really big help. :)
Like SeasonsKing, I have unlocked the Beach Party area but can’t play the levels. :( Any ideas why?
I had the same problem until I played the last level and best it again with 3 stars. When I unlocked the gate, I only had one star so maybe beating the level again or getting more than one star is necessary.
It worked! Thanks for the tip! :)
Fun but probably won’t play long since you cannot earn coins or power ups! If so, would have played longer
Congrats @mighty-red-1!
Has anyone heard any news or rumors even whether this will be out on Amazon app-store?
I’ve side-loaded it for now, but can’t make any purchases, etc. Nor have I made it past level 15. I got down to 1 thing left to unanchor and timed out. I really hate that timer. Laughs.
Would love for there to be a way to earn coins in-game as others have said.
I’ll have to double check, but I think the 5 lives are regenerated in an hour. Yeah, I’ll check that.
Good luck to all! Not a bad way to just pop bubbles and relax.
I agree there are 4 things wrong with this game. I am at level 46. No coins earned, many 3 star levels.
1. Some levels you cannot win without luck getting the right combination of balls.
2. So far no coin generation.
3. Takes to long to regenerate lives.
4. No accessible high score list.
but other than that, its enjoyable. 3 out of 5 stars.
I agree with many of the comments here. The “beat the clock” levels totally destroyed this game. They need to be removed completely. Ive been stuck at level 46 for 3 weeks and if I don’t get thru it by the end of the week, im deleting the game.
That and No high score chart, and having to wait long times to regenerate lives.
Nice try Rovio, but this one gets 1 out of 5 stars with me.
Im with you and am done with this until the timed levels are gone. The control for shooting is awful. Birds rule, leave bubbles to the bubble witch.
Ok. I have 2 bubbles left to pop. But no more bubbles. And it says get 5 more bulled And when I click to pay for and add 5 bubbles. You take my money and end the game. How is that fair.
well, I made it past the dreaded level 46 after 3 weeks. Then got to level 54 which is another beat the clock level. And Ive earned zero coins, so I deleted the game. Level 54 was the final straw. I spent too much time wasting shots, due to luck of the draw, ending up with 26 layers to go.
Oh well, it could have been a cool game..
I am currently on level 50, and have 3 stars in every level up to 17. Why have I not gotten any more coins or power balls? I only have 2 coins left from when I first got the game! I have no power balls at all. I am connected to Facebook, but nothing shows up on my friends lists. I really like this game, but you should be able to earn some coins and power balls.
