4Ks Posted June 11, 2011 Share Posted June 11, 2011 (edited) You're Jack Avery, a lad with a taste for treasure and high adventure! In this hot Sega adventure you are fast on the trail of the most feared sea pirate's treasure, Captain Silver. It doesn't matter that he's dead. His ghost goes on haunting the treasure...and all who try to find it...with a bloodthirsty vengeance that has chased strong men to their graves! But you have no fear..or do you? With a tattered old treasure map in hand, you must track down the sea dog's golden hoard, battling creatures both from this world from beyond the grave! You'll start the game with your trusty cutlass and your wits. Fight well and you'll be able to increase the power to slow down the hands of time and make your self temporarily invisible. Wield your cutlass well and you'll face the ghost of the Captain himself...with a chance to own all his buried treasure. But fail in your quest, and who knows what spirits will haunt you? Deadline for high scores is June 23, 2011. Start on the default difficulty, do not use continues. Special note: If you only have the European version, the US ROM is available here. Scoreboard: Sonic R 82,100 roadrunner 74,800 zylon 34,100 4Ks 31,100 Hints & Tips: None yet. Current HSC Points zylon 358 roadrunner 308!

zylon Posted June 15, 2011 Share Posted June 15, 2011 Ahoy matey! 28,700 I was doing good until i got to the first boss. That's one big pirate. grrrr!!!! Ah, he's a pushover. BTW: that's not your score, thats the gold counter. You use that to buy upgrades and more time, etc. You would see your score after you beat that guy. So beat him badly. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't want my gold counter to go down. I'll try to give this one a few more goes. Thanks for the info! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zylon Posted June 16, 2011 Share Posted June 16, 2011 Your time remaining is also added into your score. I had around 56k gold at start of last level I reached, but still only 34k points. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sonic R Posted June 19, 2011 Share Posted June 19, 2011 (edited) finally got around to playing this! I might try to conquer this game… 82,100 Edited June 19, 2011 by Sonic R Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sonic R Posted June 19, 2011 Share Posted June 19, 2011 FYI: I think everyone is already doing so, but let's be playing the USA version - the European (South America?) PAL version actually contains 6 levels while the the USA NTSC version has only 4 levels. the PAL version was actually contained on a larger size cart while SOA cheaped out and went with a smaller size cart so two stages were omitted… Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I may have to pull my score, as I would be at a disadvantage playing with fewer stages Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zylon Posted June 21, 2011 Share Posted June 21, 2011 If the order of stages up to the cave shown in RR's post are the same, then you're ok. I haven't been able to pass that yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roadrunner Posted June 21, 2011 Share Posted June 21, 2011 I played the USA version. We all played the stage with the palm tree's and were you have to jump on the purple turtle's back right? That was the last stage i finished before i got to the caves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zylon Posted June 21, 2011 Share Posted June 21, 2011 Yep. I think both versions are the same at least to that point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrianC Posted June 21, 2011 Share Posted June 21, 2011 (edited) Yep. I think both versions are the same at least to that point. The EU/JP one has extra enemies before that point, not to mention extra bosses like the witch in the first stage. I think most stages have an extra section, as well. So it's not quite the same.
