To do this, you will have to target a cluster of same-colored bubbles that are linked to the rocky bubbles.

The only way to remove them is to make them fall down. Those sad-looking rocky bubbles can’t be destroyed with your shooter bubble. Just point the aiming line to your target and it will go through him. You can easily shoot bubbles through the ghost, so don’t worry if he comes in between your shooter bubble and your target. The ghost is pretty smart and will find the best route on his way up you just have to focus creating a path for him by clearing bubbles near him. Despite these irritations, though, fans of similar games will find Diamond Diaries Saga to be a puzzle fans' best friend.When he moves up, the entire cluster of bubbles automatically comes down, making the first line of bubbles crash against the white arc and drop into the cauldron, so you don’t have to worry about clearing the first line of bubbles. But when the bank's full, there's a $3 withdrawal fee if you want the bonus you've earned for, well, filling the pig. It also puts gold bars (which are used to keep playing) in your piggy bank as you play.

For starters, when you press on a gem, it highlights all the nearby gems you can link to, removing some of the challenge.

Sadly, the game isn't without its problems. But while this game starts off familiar, and is often rather easy, it gets increasingly inventive as it progresses, adding bottles of perfume that make diamonds float upward, small birds that can smash barricades, and other clever mechanics. You also aren't limited to just ones in a row, you can backtrack and link all that are close together. Or, if the board is set up differently, you have to link gems that are next to the Russian nesting dolls of the same color, which will release the diamonds instead.

You have to use your finger to link three or more of the same kind, which causes them to disappear, and the diamond to move downward, hopefully past the pearl necklace. In Diamond Diaries Saga, there's a large diamond in a tube full of smaller gems. While this starts off as a simple, physics-augmented connect-3 puzzle game, it gets increasingly clever and inventive.
