Lockehorn Rubble Trouble Moscow Rainbogeddon

Rubble Trouble Moscow is the third installment of the Rubble Trouble series, released on December 21st, 2011. It was Nitrome's second winter game of the year, as well as the last game of 2011. The game is set in Moscow, Russia.

Controls[]

Mouse - Use tools

Gameplay[]

The second sequel of Rubble Trouble plays the same as the previous games, and the player has some tools with varying ammo and has to use the tools to destroy abandoned buildings. Money is earned for every brick destroyed. Destroying nearby civilian buildings causes loss of money, and usually will result in loss of the level. Each level has a set amount of money the player has to earn, in early levels being less than the amount of money the player can gain on the level. Running out of tools to use or not being able to meet the set amount of money causes a game over screen to come up, and the player must restart the level.

Levels[]

Rubble Trouble Moscow has thirty levels, twenty of which take place on earth in Moscow, and ten in space, presumably on a Russian space station, or an international space station, such as the ISS.

In Moscow[]

These levels take place in Moscow. Snow is falling, and buildings can be seen in the background. These levels have the same physics as all the other Rubble Trouble levels in past games.

Trivia[]

  • The letter 'R' in Trouble in the title of the game is inverted making it the Russian letter "я" (Pronounced as "Ya").
  • Many fans guessed that the game would take place in Moscow, Russia, as seen by the buildings in the background.[citation needed] Some other guesses were Taj Mahal and Middle East, due to the building shape.
  • This is Nitrome's second game to have two sequels. The first was Ice Breaker, which has three after the release of Ice Breaker: A Viking Voyage.
  • The game also seems to have a lot of influence toward Tetris, as through levels 1 through 19, sometimes the music will have bits of what sounds like the Tetris theme song. Also, the player plays "Nitrometris" in level twenty, and the music is very Tetris style in levels 21-30. Also, constellations can be seen every once in a while that look like the Tetris blocks. This is most likely because Tetris was originally invented in Russia.
    • The song that plays during the levels set in space is a remix of the Tetris theme song, Korobeiniki.
  • In level 3, Nikola Tesla is mentioned during the level's dialogue, but his name is misspelled as "Nickola Tesla".
  • In level 10, Barry mentioned that the village they're going to destroy "was deserted and is now mainly used as final disposal for toxic waste" which is a references to the infamous Chernobyl disaster that happened in 1986.
  • In level 23, the construction that has to be destroyed is shaped like a pool table and the process for destroying it is similar to the gameplay of Pool.
