Arcade Games puzzle

Post by Rapunzel »

I've noticed an odd thing on a couple of the arcade games.

Some games are puzzles which have to be done as quickly as possible. But the score you get is the time you did it in. So, say you solved a puzzle in 10 seconds... you would get 10 points. If someone else solved the puzzle in 100 seconds, they would get 100 points. So the person with 100 points is in 1st place, and the person with 10 points is in second place, even though they were faster. :confused:

So this means that if you want to win one of these games you just have to do it really, really slowly, over several minutes....and you get a really high time score! :-2

It's like Kelloggs Honey Nut cereal .....very nutty! :rolleyes:

WOO HOO!!, what a ride!!!"
