Very cool! Thanks for posting it! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deteacher Posted January 24, 2021 Share Posted January 24, 2021 253,320! I keep losing lives on the early rounds. I have to stop doing that! LOL! Level 16 and 17 are my nemeses! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Level 16 and 17 are my nemeses! Yeah, 16 and 17 are tough! I can't figure out a good pattern and just end up dying 2x on each level. There's got to be a good way to section out the map so that Nibbler can stick to one area consistently, clean it, then move out. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deteacher Posted January 24, 2021 Share Posted January 24, 2021 My only tip (which I'm sure others have figured out already) is to try to clean out the middle of the board while you're still small. It's easier to stay out of your own way when you're larger if you can keep to the outer part of the board. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deteacher Posted January 24, 2021 Share Posted January 24, 2021 275,520! Level 23! Was not prepared for the speed increase on this level. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+slx Posted January 24, 2021 Share Posted January 24, 2021 59.040, level 10, getting too fast for me as I just don't manage to take the required turns even in case I happen to know in time where I should go. Nevertheless a very nice game. I don't recall playing it back in the day and wasn't aware Rock-Ola had been in the arcade market. (Just read about the quest to get a billion points and decided not to give it a try.) 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deteacher Posted January 24, 2021 Share Posted January 24, 2021 This game was last played in 2009. TRBB blew away the competition with a whopping 1.8 million points! Once you reach level 38, the game calms down and the speed resets. I'm only up to level 23, so I'm not sure how much further I'll get (especially when I keep losing lives on the earlier rounds.) ? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chevymad Posted January 24, 2021 Share Posted January 24, 2021 I had the niece and nephew playing Friday night. I don't think either had played a two player video game before. Both did better than I expected. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My best joystick for this is the Pointmaster and it's now starting to have issues....I hate to blame the hardware but just can't find that perfect stick with enough throw to stop me from making dumb decisions but short enough to react after level 19... Part of it is my reflexes too though, haha! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
graywest Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 (edited) Nibbler: 383,090 (level 27) Whew!! I'm sort of obsessed with this game now... but I may be reaching my personal limit. Edited January 25, 2021 by graywest 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
