atariksi Posted August 26, 2010 Share Posted August 26, 2010 Heh. Welcome back Sloopy. Is there a pause button on this game or a way to force it to pause? I was having a great game-- 40K+ w/o losing a man and the phone rang! If there's no pause, can someone lend me a gun to shoot my phone-- preferably one with a laser target light so I don't miss? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sloopy Posted August 26, 2010 Share Posted August 26, 2010 You gotta go through me to get to Fres and SteveS (A8ISA), but i dont see this as a problem... i see it more as a pebble to walk on, during my journey :') not to mention, playing the HSC, means i am not working on computers, and that means by beating you i am not only just beating you but i am bustin yer balls ;') sloopy.

You're lucky. My wife sometimes calls directly w/o using a phone. Can't mute that. But it wasn't just answering time that you need pause, but distracting sounds also causes me to lose concentration in later levels as sounds are also important there-- shark sound, duck sound, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just figured this out in desperation trying to finish level 5. I didn't finish level 5 but I jumped over a couple of sharks. You have to time it just right. It's like the Topper game where you jump over the rabbit. Also, that joystick bug is there when you get on the tortoise and get off immediately, depending on some other circumstances, you end up on the row above.

As soon as shark hits the lilly pad next to you on your right, jump right. By the time you land on the lilly pad, shark will have left and will be where you were-- just like the Topper game. Makes level 4 easier at least. As for level 5, the whale starts taking dives into the lake (ocean/river) and slows things down and that cloud all the way on the left requires some time to get to and that slows things down as well until time runs out (so far). I've seen the vegetarian risotto: http://allrecipes.com/Recipe/Risotto-with-Tomato-Corn-and-Basil/Detail.aspx I probably would substitute the onions/garlic with something else like asafoetida: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asafoetida Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Divya16 Posted August 27, 2010 Share Posted August 27, 2010 Did somebody say "jump the shark?" Aaay! May need to try that as I have been stuck on level 4 for quite some time. Also, I played a little bit of PAL version of this game, and it's slower and easier so may give that a shot to try to pass level 4 if all else fails.

Haven't seen that yet, but those gliders and birds flying in the clouds have yet to kill me. It seems like a low probability that they hit you.

You can also time the shark and hear for it about to come. So get on first row of lilly pads and wait for the shark. Once it's visible either stay there if it's above you or move up and find the alligator while it moves across below you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
