Having had a break from it for a week I managed to get to 29 seconds... it's a pity that there isn't a league table that registers our scores (oops, sorry about the pun :wink: :oops: )

Is there such a word a "quadrocide" or did I just invent it?

By the way - 59.996 seconds on the blocks game. How close to one minute is that?

Aaaagggh! The ladybirds are driving me mad !!!! They're very cute but after 30+ attempts I havn't got beyond stage 1 :twisted:

And I was feeling so proud of my 14 seconds for the block game until I read Adrian's score! Maybe I'll stick to the word association, as it doesn't require any coordination skills :D

Hi Tracy,
In the blocks game, the blue ones always move in the same pattern, so you just have to progressively learn more and more of their sequence and how to avoid them. From about 50 seconds just live by your wits for as long as possible.

You'll hate me even more for telling you that I did the ladybirds through something like 8 or 10 levels fist time, after which it simply said "Game Clear" then back to the first level. There's a knack to it, though I'm not sure I can describe it.
  • The bugs only ever go in the direction they are facing.
  • All bugs move at once.
  • If you have bugs near the edge, wait until they are all facing inwards before clicking.
  • Wait until two bugs are on collision course before clicking - think perpendicular bisector
  • Always give short dabs.
