Deteacher Posted August 18, 2019 Share Posted August 18, 2019 I had to take a break from Abracadabra yesterday because of the sheer frustration factor. It seems as if there's less and less skill, and more and more luck involved. The game is totally random, from the moving walls to the random spawning of the monsters. I had that one good game, but haven't even come close to it since. I might give it another go today. We'll see... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deteacher Posted August 18, 2019 Share Posted August 18, 2019 (edited) Had a breakthrough game (after MANY crappy ones...) 137,160! The board counter stops at 16, so who knows how many levels I actually played. I think I might be done with this one. Might go back to Pac-Mad and see if I can get a better score. Oh, and this game broke my favorite CX-40, BTW. Fortunately, it was only the plastic ring that holds the boot on and I have plenty of donor sticks that can fix that right up.

I didn't know the screen counter stopped at 16. I found a screenshot on highscore.com from when I played this last and thought I got to screen 16! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Abracadabra 111,170 (screenshot pending!) So I held in fire most of the time, seems this is how you should play it and the game is good. The imperfect turns look like a feature to make it a skill to complete the later levels in time, now I wonder if the programmer put in something to open the walls - either location firing bashing into, just a thought :idea: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Need to get the levels done using the pills more I think 26,470 (8) No nothing in particular. Just tried to be as quick around the screen as possible, and collecting the keys that are more vulnerable to being boxed in first. I thought that about the wiggling around when boxed in, cos it worked once, it never worked again! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
