The Very Strange …

 

MGLXXXVII – Game 6 ~ Time Tunnel

 

OOO Preamble:

Has anyone noticed anything about Taito games? Did you enjoy trying to beat the default high score on Rastan? That was a Taito game. How are you finding Zoo Keeper? That’s a Taito game too, easy isn’t it, no? Well if you haven’t torn all of your hair out yet, especially including the low scoring of Kangaroo from Atari, then the addition of this game will make you as bald as a baby’s posterior. Taito likes really short games, collecting your money and frustrating the bejesus out of gamers. Welcome to Taito's Time Tunnel. I pre-tested the game for the MGL and this one for me is the most bizarre game of all. Sure Q*bert was orange with a monster schnoz to jump on a 3D psychedelic board, but this game is something else. It’s incredibly bizarre, creepy and frustrating. Just try and complete the Taito threesome without a single cursing remark. I won’t say anymore, discover for yourself, and enjoy ... :stirthepot:

Ut oh.. I better quit now while I'm a head (no pun intended). Otherwise this could be potentially disastrous for me. You see, the last time I counted, I only had 22 remaining hairs left on top. Not sure what to do Paul. :shrug: :hairpull: :lol

Would you believe this game's already grown on me?! I made it to the 4th stage (i.e. first stage on the second loop). Oh and here's the kicker. I still have all 22 hairs left. :041:

Good question. I am heading off to Japan soon. I'll drop into a Taito Station and ask them.

It's not an easy game. Taito strikes again. At least you heard of this game before, I don't seem to remember this game at all.

You can't go backward through the tunnel

They have thought of everything in this game. Backwards into the tunnel is not allowed where those who tried it most likely would have lost a train and then cursed. And if you travel backwards you get no points! WT!!

 

Funny typing this I meant to type if you travel backwards you get no points! A bit of miss keying and word suggestion it came out if you travel backwards you get no power bra! LOL. Thank god it’s the weekend.

84,650 - got to stage 2-2 then that walking thing just wouldn't get out of the way

 

Yes the "walking thing" can turn up anywhere in scene 2 and pester you when you are trying to pickup the passengers. How about the other train often gunning for your train at the start. Yes fun and games in this one.

92,400 - got to stage 2-3 and ran out of fuel

 

Running out of fuel is a common issue in this game. Whether it's the aliens delaying you to the tunnel or a pickup, the evil other train causes delays, or you plain just make the mistake yourself, there are just so many ways to lose your train! :realmad:
