Puzzle Bobble, formerly known internationally as Bust-A-Move, is a 1994 tile-matching video game developed and published by Taito for arcades. It is based on the 1986 arcade game Bubble Bobble, featuring characters and themes from that game. Its characteristically cute Japanese animation and music, along with its play mechanics and level designs, made it successful as an arcade title and spawned several sequels and ports to home systems.
