When you pop some bubbles, and another bubble was being held up by the bubbles you popped, that other bubble falls and becomes a malus bubble. In chain reaction mode, that other bubble can also rise up and pop some other bubbles, if you have a pair of bubbles on your screen that are the same color as it with a free position next to it. This might, in turn, release more bubbles, which can also rise up and pop pairs of their own color, in a big chain reaction. Let's illustrate that:
 | 1. First, you pop some bubbles of the same color, yellow in our example, which release some extra bubbles of a different color (black and purple). |
 | 2. The purple bubble just falls. The black bubble would fall too, but this is chain-reaction mode. So instead of falling, the black bubble sees a group of other black bubble with a free position next to it, and swoops back up to be with them. |
 | 3. The black bubbles pop, releasing several other bubbles. The orange bubble sees a group of other orange bubbles with a free position next to it, and swoops back up to be with them. |
 | 4. The orange bubbles pop, releasing a couple of other bubbles. |
 | 5. But there are no more groups for these bubbles, so the chain reaction is over. |
