Thorn and Balloons

Thorn and Balloons is a fun balloon shooting puzzle game. It is part of a long-running physics series where the player has to shoot all the balloons in one throw by throwing a spiked balloon. With 90 levels to conquer, challenge yourself to conquer each level now!

How to play Thorn and Balloons

Select a level on the screen to prepare for the challenge. You start each level with a spiked balloon and a box full of balloons. To change the shot, click and hold the bubble and then drag it back. The player must look at the angle, estimate how the ball will bounce, and timing it precisely if they are to shoot properly.

Pulling on the balloon will force it tprecisely time it o move away from you as if it were a slingshot. Click the reset button to try the level once more should you miss or fail.

Advanced Tips and Strategies to play Thorn and Balloons

Here's how to master the game as you progress through increasingly complex levels:

Understand the Physics of Bouncing

You'll need to angle your shots to get the exact angle of bounce to where you want them to be.

Master Timing for Moving Obstacles

Some levels have moving barriers that require you to time your shots carefully. So wait for the right moment to shoot the ball through gaps or use moving objects to your advantage.

Experiment with Different Shot Angles

If you fail a level, analyze where the ball bounced incorrectly and adjust your shots accordingly. Each time you try, you'll learn from the experience and help you refine your strategy.

Use Platforms to Your Advantage

Some moving platforms can help you reach more balloons if used correctly. Instead of avoiding them, consider bouncing off of these platforms to get a better angle.
