Bust-A-Move 3, known as Puzzle Bobble 3 (パズルボブル 3) in Japan, is the third entry in Taito's Bust-A-Move (Puzzle Bobble) series. It was originally an arcade game which, like the previous game in the series Bust-A-Move 2: Arcade Edition, was ported to the Sega Saturn. An enhanced version, titled Puzzle Bobble 3DX was also released, but this skipped Sega's consoles.

Gameplay
Bust-A-Move 3 is extremely similar in design to other Bust-A-Move games, however instead of attaching its bubbles to the top of the screen, the bubbles are positioned around "nodes". Levels sometimes involve scrolling upwards, and there are also a selection of Bust-A-Move 2 levels included. It also includes the ability to select your character in versus mode.
