Rocket Mania facts for kids

Rocket Mania is a fun computer puzzle video game. It was created by two companies, Nuclide Games and PopCap Games. In this game, you get to launch lots of cool rockets!

How to Play Rocket Mania

You play by turning special fuse pieces. Your goal is to connect these fuses to launch rockets! Some fuses have junctions, which means they can connect to many rockets at once. This lets you launch multiple rockets with one fuse.

When you launch rockets, you earn coins. Collect five coins, and your rocket will get an upgrade! As you earn points, you move up through different ranks in the game. You can also make "combos." This happens when a fuse launches a rocket and then falls, setting off another chain reaction.

Game Modes

Classic Mode

In Classic mode, the game starts at night. You have a time limit to launch rockets. To move to the next level, you need to launch a certain number of rockets. A friendly dragon helps you by automatically upgrading your rockets with the coins you collect. These upgrades give you more points! You can also win other special items. The value of these items depends on how many rockets you launch.

Arcade Mode

Arcade mode starts with an empty game board. Tiles with fuses and rockets will start to fill up the board. You must quickly connect the fuses to the rockets before the board gets completely full. It's a race against time and the filling board!

Strategy Mode

In Strategy mode, you begin with a certain number of matches. When you launch many rockets at once, you can get bonus matches on the board. But be careful! These bonus matches will burn out if you don't use them quickly. If a fuse light carries a match, you get to keep that match. The game ends if you run out of matches, so plan your moves wisely!
