See attached short video. You must attack pterry from the front (and may be from behind?) but I still don't know when exactly I can kill it as it kills me in most cases. kill.zip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goochman Posted January 15, 2006 Author Share Posted January 15, 2006 Pinpoint is the key word - as in the arcade there is like a pixel or something area that if hit exactly will kill it. Not sure Ive seen instructions on where this is on the 8bit version. It was later removed from the Arcade version I hear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
www.atarimania.com Posted January 15, 2006 Share Posted January 15, 2006 You can kill the pterodactyl with your lance when he opens his beak. Damn risky and worth just 1,000 points. -- Atari Frog http://www.atarimania.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_Fandal_ Posted January 16, 2006 Share Posted January 16, 2006 Unplayable. Not very funny. F. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NE146 Posted January 16, 2006 Share Posted January 16, 2006 You can kill the pterodactyl with your lance when he opens his beak. Damn risky and worth just 1,000 points. -- Atari Frog http://www.atarimania.com 1000889[/snapback] You can kill him with his beak closed too. Also you can kill him by hitting him from behind. Basically your lance tip has to be at the exact point of the beak, or his tail. I used to do it all the time in the 5200 version.. pterry hunting is great Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fallout_002 Posted January 17, 2006 Share Posted January 17, 2006 80,700 Played on an XEGS with original cartridge. I managed to play a perfect game up to the pterry board, then lost all 7(?) lives in less than 2 1/2 minutes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Almost Rice Posted January 19, 2006 Share Posted January 19, 2006 (edited) My Bro and me would play this for a long time. One of the best games to tag team the enemy. That was my first try at the game. Its much easier than the 7800 version. My score was too late anyway.
