Nice little game. Takes about 20 minutes to get through it all. Staffordguy, you are almost done with the mine - just click each of the green lights (they will turn red) to defuse the mine.
Simply awful. You have to click to enter each and every letter. The clues scroll slowly. There is no hint/solution if you get stuck on a word. And it isn't even a valid crossword (bogus numbering; 2-letter nonwords).
Excellent game with many interesting levels. The "Matches" feature is very nice, so you don't have to hunt for a match that isn't there. I agree that it is sometimes difficult to tell whether a tile is locked or not; it would be nice if locked and unlocked tiles
were highlighted with a different color when you moused over them. I don't miss the music. An Undo feature would be nice. This game is definitely Kongregate badge-worthy.
Hints, 1) If you don't like how a level begins, hit Back To Menu, then Continue (not New Game) to restart the level; 2) At the end of your turn, you can move armies between MULTIPLE countries (not just 1 like RISK).
Scoring, -5 if incorrect, +1 to +13 if correct (depending on difficulty). Simple strategy (guess Higher if card is <= 7) will score about 80. Advanced strategy (memorize all cards seen) will score about 94.
Nice game. It is different enough from Risk (no Blitzkreig; play one continent at a time) to be quite interesting. A few typos but no bugs. The AI is flawed but better than most for games of this type.
Don’t waste your time on this game. Level 3 goes on forever - you can’t win - just a waste of mouse clicks. I can’t believe Kongregate put a badge on this pointless game!
JohnSteel, on that level, you need to move to each desert province and use the DIG icon to look for the artifact. Check each desert province and you'll find it.
What a demonic game - very nice. I couldn't get past the Elevator on Level 17. It would be nice to have hotkey (rather than mouse) to Unpause - this gets used A LOT.
