fakecortex Posted May 27, 2021 Share Posted May 27, 2021 Love me some Tapper. But especially in the arcade. Such a fun control scheme. 177,350 Scene 11 (Skill 2) Didn't realize how much higher my skill one score was (395k). Guess this level does up the difficulty. Never feels especially hard tho. I do find myself just wanting to finish the level so I can see a new screen, but they go on for so long... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OriginalJohn Posted May 28, 2021 Share Posted May 28, 2021 69,625 - This one was never my game! It took me awhile to figure it out, but the word 'SODA' is in the window! (It looked like SOOR and was confusing!) 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JEFF31 Posted May 29, 2021 Share Posted May 29, 2021 Just curious... Is it worth it to collect tips? Doesn't seem worth it to me... Empty glasses about to fall of course... but tips? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Empty glasses about to fall of course... but tips? If you need a break, yes it's imperative you get the tips, I think it's 1,500 points? that turns the patrons attention to the 'show', so you can clean up glasses and serve any new patrons that pop out of the holes - then plan what you are going to do next.

DuggerVideoGames Posted May 30, 2021 Share Posted May 30, 2021 [Skill 2]: 197,925 pts Unfortunate timing with the alien dancers grabbing the attention of the patrons as I was sliding a glass. Haha. Lost several lives that way. Game over on screen 30. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
