RJ Posted August 17, 2014 Share Posted August 17, 2014 (edited) BONUS- Riddle of the Sphinx I passed this up locally for $8 in a stack of rares. Listened to ferg's show on it but cant convince myself. Wow the arcade vers. looks much more palatable, but hearing only good things about it, seems this is a good VCS cart in its own right, a la Crystal Castles.

RJ Posted August 17, 2014 Share Posted August 17, 2014 Sorry spacey, I snuck it in minutes before. I was editing the main body of my post, I knew the bonus straight away Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StanJr Posted August 18, 2014 Share Posted August 18, 2014 9080 For a 1981 cart, this game is a pretty good effort. . The ROM I am using says 1983. Is this a problem? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scrabbler15 Posted August 18, 2014 Share Posted August 18, 2014 The ROM I am using says 1983. Is this a problem? The ROM in my Harmony cart reads Konami1981 when it comes on. . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spacey Invader Posted August 18, 2014 Share Posted August 18, 2014 Rj - no prob. Recognized it quick too because that thing absorbed a good chunk of my childhood. Now if I'd ever gotten around to figuring out the need to plug in a second joystick, riddle of the sphinx might have seemed surmountable.

Thats funny because I've never played it before in my life! Do I need to play Strategy X to get my bonus pts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CapitanClassic Posted August 18, 2014 Share Posted August 18, 2014 Thats funny because I've never played it before in my life! Do I need to play Strategy X to get my bonus pts? I would think you still score them, but considering that you score between 50-25 points for playing Strategy X (emulate with Stella if you don't have the hardware), it wouldn't matter much.

StanJr Posted August 18, 2014 Share Posted August 18, 2014 Has anyone scored higher than 1510 on the first screen? (not counting the 300pt bonus for completing) I figure the good Captain has already determined the max score for each screen, yes, yes?

StanJr Posted August 18, 2014 Share Posted August 18, 2014 Answer my own question. I was just able to get 1670 by destroying all enemies and all walls completely. I was also running full speed. Do you get additional time points if you slow down? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
