In Bullying Cells, red cells bully cells of other colors. The player has to keep cells moving and the red cells away to avoid the bullying to other cells. Cells that have been bullied several times will flee or even die, which means game over. But the player can also group 3 cells of the same color to “swallow” the bullying red cell and transform it into a non-bullying cell.
Players can make progress through the game and experience increasing challenge by avoiding the bullying of the red cells and transforming them into non bullying cells.
The game offers speed and strategy, which entertains the players and makes them want to play more and more.
