How do you play......

[Nyala]

Seeing as there a few Arcade games I just can't get my noggin around I thought I'd start this thread so we can pass hints on to each other. This is not intended to threaten the leaders, just to help everyone enjoy the games.

Bug On A Wire - How do I stop the fly holding my ant down? He squashes the ant so he can't jump and ends up being eaten by the birds.

Slingo - What are the gold coins for and how do I stop the devil taking all my cash????

[Patson]

[Angelshark]

lol why didn't u just ask... oh u did... right...bug on a wire... keep moving as long as ur switching lines he can't catch you u just need to make sure u move to a free wire, or try jump over the birds, good luck with that one...

slingo is a one armed bandit bingo game, match the numbers at the bottom with those on the top, u can't stop the devil taking ur money away that's just bad luck...

[Nyala]

Thanks for that, you rock!!! Now - I have an appointment with a nasty little bug.........

;)

[dallas]

youre a gent G thanks a billion or trillion in zim terms!!!

[Belladonna]

In slingo the gold coins are a bonus

[yarrumsg]

righty after a quick recap of slingo...

1) your presented with a bingo sheet
2) press the spin button, this will bring up 5 numbers each number represents the column it's in, if ur number appears press it and it will remove that number from the grid,
3) you have a set time in which to remove the numbers that have rolled up, if you have completed this all you can move out the time will disapear and allow you to roll again

4) if you complete a row or column you will get bonus points for it
5) if you get a devil icon for any row he takes half you score away, however this is sometimes turned over by an angel (i think this comes up after you have been hit once or twice)
6) if you get a red joker you can nominate any number in that column
7) if you get a green joker you can nominate any number in any column
8) you get a gold coin you get 1000 point bonus
7) if you get 3 jokers you get 1000 point bonus


cheers Mafuta i'm always a good egg ;)

[FerrariSucks]

[yarrumsg]

lol what u don't already?

seriously just happy to share the knowledge :)

[Mafuta beeftex]

And continuing despite Yarrumsg's erratic numerology,
9) If you get four jokers in a row, you get 3000 points. In about a hundred times of playing, only got it once so far.

How do you hit sixes in the cricket challenge. I also have a hard time hitting the short straight ball, is there a trick to this?

if it's the Nat West one, i can only hit them if they go to the left and up, you have to wait until the last minute (so basically you have to play the bouncer...) i don't think there is an exact science to hitting them though...

No mate the sabc one. I have tried but failed

[yarrumsg]

i guess it's more to life than one things ;) down to time :P, sorry haven't played that one much... will give it a go now...

[yarrumsg]

mmm ok i see ur pain, u need a run rate of 4.42 runs on average to beat the current score... good luck..

[Angelshark]

Yeah and the guy is such a good bowler that you got no chance of even getting a wide or no ball, pointless if you ask me, now I just play it for fun
