Bamse Posted September 16, 2019 Share Posted September 16, 2019 Hahaha, I thought it said 44k. I take it back, nearly half a million is ridiculously high Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm terrible at this game by the way. Edited September 16, 2019 by IntyFanMatt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClassicGMR Posted September 16, 2019 Share Posted September 16, 2019 (edited) I just literally spent 4-5 minutes waiting for a penguin to get out of a previously cut area so I could dunk it. Try avoiding the seal for 5 minutes while waiting for the AI to move the penguin out to a spot where you can cut under it to continue playing... that's frustration right there. ? Only 5800-ish my first try ever playing. I'm going back now to try again. EDIT: OK so I get the mechanics a little better. Should yield some decent scores. 11,040 Edited September 16, 2019 by ClassicGMR 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IntyFanMatt Posted September 17, 2019 Share Posted September 17, 2019 (edited) 16,850 Really fun game, I’ve always liked this one, but I find it to be VERY hard...a little too hard I think. I wish there was a way to stop the seal a bit easier, then I think it would have more replay value for me. It gets old fast, but it’s still fun to play in quick bursts. I know this is one of Jacob’s favorites. I am absolutely horrible at it by the way lol. Edited September 17, 2019 by IntyFanMatt 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed. I love Qix and this kinda resembles it but I have no trouble scoring in Qix. This though... is a pain. ? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IntyFanMatt Posted September 18, 2019 Share Posted September 18, 2019 33,840 This game is in need of a remake, maybe for Amico, that makes the seal much more forgiving. That thing is a major pain. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bamse Posted September 18, 2019 Share Posted September 18, 2019 Think I'm done with stampede so on to Thin Ice. First go for quite a while, a bit rusty 18700. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
