atariron82 Posted October 26, 2009 Share Posted October 26, 2009 This game is harder than it looks. Careful when you jump across the bridge towards the tower opening or you'll go splat and fall into the moat! My starting score: 8,000 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JEFF31 Posted October 27, 2009 Share Posted October 27, 2009 Just broke into the 10K barrier. Yes this is what looks like an easy game but is a tough little nut to crack! I lose many lives jumping across that darn bridge to late and die smashing into the wall I also lose many a life in the 'treasure' room - amazing how many times I run into the dragon's fireballs!

JEFF31 Posted October 29, 2009 Share Posted October 29, 2009 Ah the video was an OBVIOUS fake... the music doesn't match the real game... Kinda figured you could do better than 10900. Unfortunately I my not be able to participate (well not easily) in the future (playing on the emulator is OK but I don't get that many higher scores). Just after my 10K score my #3 coleco started acting funny and I could no longer go to the right and the number 2 button wouldn't respond (The other two colecos 'died' earlier this year - similar problems) :sad: . Anyone know of a repair place where it won't cost me $300 bucks to get these consoles looked at and fixed? Would a stella usb adaptor work?

atariron82 Posted November 1, 2009 Share Posted November 1, 2009 The guy in that video may be on to(or on..) something Who would have known that listening to "I Want Out" by Helloween while playing this game would enhance scoring? I just so happened to have a copy of the 12in handy : 21,900 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ikrananka Posted November 2, 2009 Share Posted November 2, 2009 I originally dismissed this game as naff - but it's actually quite fun (for a short while anyway). A respectable score of 23,000. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

roadrunner Posted November 29, 2009 Share Posted November 29, 2009 I know this round is over, but i started using my old controller that i was using earlier this year again. The up button sticks, but it's real good for playing Millipede, anyway what's the correct way to start this game on skill 2. I just played this game again today and by pressing 1,1,2 i got 3,200 points and by pressing 2,1,2 i got 3,600 points. If we ever play this game again i'll know what controller to use for this game.

Then skill level. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
