karokoenig Posted September 13, 2015 Share Posted September 13, 2015 I love this game, and I hate you! I had this one on my top list of candidates for the upcoming in-between season winter tournament. Now I need to think about some other game. I hate thinking! Winter Tournie will come with more and more valuable prizes this time (instead of the slightly weird token prize I gave away last year). So stay tuned! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Atarian7 Posted September 14, 2015 Share Posted September 14, 2015 I can't even make it past the first round of vines without losing a guy. I stay as high up as I can and wait for just the right moment to jump. Is there some trick to this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karokoenig Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 I can't even make it past the first round of vines without losing a guy. I stay as high up as I can and wait for just the right moment to jump. Is there some trick to this? Always going for as high as possible on the vine only gets you so far. Often it's better to hang a little lower, because from there, you swing further towards the next one. I would say that losing one guy on the vines at this difficulty level isn't a shame. It should be avoided, of course :-). 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always just rely on luck in the boulder stage! that is what I have been doing. Haven't figured out a good way to figure out how the bolder will bounce yet. If I do, lookout NCG.

S.BAZ Posted September 16, 2015 Author Share Posted September 16, 2015 (edited) 33,450Getting far forward til the big boulder comes, then backing up as it approaches, duck when it bounces nearby- doesn't always work for me but I get a little better results with it.
