Title: Arcade.
Post by: Jason on September 10, 2007, 01:41:02 PM

Ok, new arcade is up with new games. I tried to go for quality over quantity and I'll add decent games as and when I find them or if suitable games brought to my attention.
Aplologies to the early upbeat players, I wiped your scores.

Aw man, Manic Miner is gone! That's was the only game I was good at.

Thanks for bringing it back Jason! I love the arcade.

I really really want Tetris back if that's possible - the version we had in the old arcade was a great one.

I think I'd prefer having terrible games that I'm actually good at, like TV Game Show.

Jason, it's no problem. Now I just have new high scores to attain/waste time at work.

Alright, I'm going out of my mind over this Flash Elements game. I can't stop playing it, but I suck at it. Can someone give my any strategic hints? I love the original Warcraft feel, stuff blowing up and so on - but I can't for the life of me get beyond 2000 points. I've tried lots of different combos - little bit of everything, only cannons, only the heavy mortars, etc, but nothing seems to work.

Anyone of you cheaters?

No cheating here.  I took the interest hike whenever I got "wood" and used only cannons except on air levels, where I'd buy a ton of air thingys and then sell them all immediately after.
I ended up buying over a hundred lives.  They're cheap once you build up a good nest egg.

That said, gilly still beat me by a ton so obviously my method wasn't perfect.

Nope no cheating. I've just played it a lot before and perfected it. That said, I don't want to give away my secret because I beat the whole game with that score and everyone would have close scores.

But I'll offer these hints: Cannons are your friend, sell things if you don't need them and don't buy if you don't have to, and always use your wood for interest until you absolutely need an element.

Oops I deleted my account and created a new one just to have my message board name on the chat. I guess I thought it would just delete my high scores but now they are all guest...

 I've not heard of you, "Gilly" you say? I was always under the impression that Christopher Guest was the champion of Flash Elements.
