Thanks Tom. I'm guessing by the "fists" reference, you get more points for using punches. Thankfully I won't be using my actual fists I didn't think of the points thing, but you're right, punches are worth more than kicks in Kung Fu.

Anthony, sorry to hear about what happened. Hope you feel better soon. You need your fists this week for Kung Fu!

Yeah, scoring is really about getting to the last stages. More time to complete + increased bonus ratio does it all. My strategy was real bad this week. I focused on perfecting stages, with quick combos, but I finally lost my playing time on this instead of simply getting further in the game. At some point, preparing a 1000 points combo isn't worth it considering extra seconds give much more bonus points. ]]> NintendoAge 2012 Weekly Contest Presents: Puzznic http://nintendoage.com/forum/messageview.cfm?catid=31&threadid=66438 2012-03-25T23:54:29 -05.00 bimmy_lee 28

Nice score Tom, that's like 5 times less than your TwinGalaxies record, but it's just normal since this game is mainly about memorization and fast completion. You can't remember all this over years, huh!

Yup, I'm getting old and senile. I actually lost because of bad decision making on screens where I knew the solution. Like at the end of my run, I had the level won, but on the final move, I cleared 2 blocks when there were 3 on the screen.

Weird how the scoring mulitplies so rapidly on this game. There are 160 puzzles in the game, which was worth over 11 million points when I set my TG record, but here I died on #90 and got a LOT less. Oh well.

So, no love for Puzznic, really

Only reason I know of Puzznic is thanks to this multicart that you can see in the FCMobile. Funny, since it doesn't seem like too rare of a game, yet it seems pretty obscure.
Guilty as well. I know this game since childhood because a friend of mine had the 260 in 1 cart and I use to borrow it and play some puzznic and Hwang Shinwei's rock paper scissors porn game

Anthony, your story is crazy stuff. Glad to know that you're still fine, but not being able to play video games comfortably is a big bummer.
Thanks, it totally blows but it should be fine in the next couple days, I just got to keep ice on it in the mean time
It just sucks that this is the first game that I didnt get to post a score but I had all week to do so. It is what it is

Here's my modest contribution for this week. Great game! Pretty much about memorization, some logic and a few quick moves here and there. I wish i could just continue masterize this but I'll switch to some good old Kung Fu

It's been a long time, but I still remember a lot of this game. I used to be able to beat all of the levels in one game, but that required a lot of memorization that didn't stick.

WOW!!!
