Anyone else have a problem with this game occasionally locking up on the screen that has all the BONUS words on it? Seems like there was some mention of it before, but I don't remember exactly.

*** Might be an emulation thing ***

I've experienced a game freeze a few times over the decades playing the Qbert's Qubes cartridge.

I never made a note of it to track when it happens but it seems like a rare occurrence.

 

Have a great time with the family, Northcoastgamer!!!

I've got to say, it's been a blast playing Q*Bert's Qubes. My high score above (235,585) is my best by over 100,000 points on Skill 1. I've also got to say Level 6 has me baffled as to how to get through it. I think I see a way, but haven't even come close to getting through Round 1. So barring a miracle, I don't anticipate my score getting any higher.
