IntyFanMatt Posted August 17, 2020 Share Posted August 17, 2020 (edited) Wow, 2 games in 1 contest!! Awesome! And Utopia is fantastic, one of my favorites, and one of the best games for Intellivision. Great picks Jacob!!

Yes, Island 1 or 2... its a crop and harvest season, now that we're safely out of Shark waters.... ??

That’s a 50 minute game for Utopia though, which is long for that game. The money starts to increase like crazy, and it becomes hard to find places on the islands to put things. So you wind up spending all your money on fishing boats. I think the sweet spot would’ve been like a 20 or 30 minute game max, if I may provide my opinion there.

JacobZu7zu7 Posted August 17, 2020 Author Share Posted August 17, 2020 Contests are an extra day longer for the two games. So when August closes, you know the farming is done. Contest Ends MONDAY AUGUST 31ST 11:59PM EST 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How about a 30/45 Gov award challenge like in the manual... it should roll along smoothly. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even something like 15/40 is pretty fun. 10 minutes and most of the turns past 15 or 20 are max score anyway. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its true, we'd be competing for boats, its going to be the Manuals 30-45 seconds selection. It will also be recorded in HSC records too. 30-45 variation. ? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would do that too. Utopia is great, but gotta keep it fairly short. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks I saw a few people mention Utopia... and thought about how it can fit in with Worm Whomping 30 secs goes pretty quick.

Yes, I meant 45 secs goes quick with the Utopia cursor slowly navigating. Games should complete around 27 mins. I think?

Yes, the fun of playing 45s turns (or faster) is you really have to decide what to do. Fish or build, and don't get too far from your island if you can avoid it. That cursor speed is a killer! ? 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
