Nestling Skies

Nestling Skies is a balloon-popping puzzle set among the treetops, where a little nest cannon sends colourful balloons up toward a branch full of trapped nestlings. Aim with your mouse or finger, release to fire, and stick your balloon to the cluster above. Match three or more of the same colour and they burst, and anything no longer connected to the ceiling tumbles away.

A dotted guide shows exactly where your shot will travel, including one bounce off the side wall, so careful aim pays off. Balloons never pass through each other: your shot sticks at the first thing it touches. Every colour carries its own symbol, a heart, star, leaf, drop, moon or flower, so the game stays readable for colour-blind players. Only colours still on the board are ever loaded, and you can swap your current and next balloon at any time.

Special balloons keep each level fresh. Bombs blast a whole area, wild balloons match any colour, ice shells crack when a neighbour pops, heavy stones can only be dropped, and kegs chain-explode their neighbours. Free the nestlings hidden in some balloons, ring the golden bells hanging from the ceiling, or simply clear the sky. As the ceiling sinks row by row you must keep the stack away from the line.

Play 90 Adventure levels across three worlds with a limited number of shots and up to three stars each, take on the Endless mode where the ceiling never stops falling, or try the Daily Flight: one shared sky every day with a streak for each day you clear it. Out of shots? Watch a short optional ad for five more, and double your score after a win. Works with touch, mouse and keyboard in portrait and landscape.
