The only problem I can see is that when you do a random map it seems that Novice is like "Super Easy" and then Veteren (the next diffuclty up) is like "Very Hard". I would like to have seen a more steady progression in difficulty up to Quarter Master.
Remove the level requirement for maps, or lower them. It is hard enough to earn that much money, having to earn the ungodly amount of EXP to be able to buy the map takes way too long.
[PART3]But I knew there were grander things for me. So I left my prize and clicked again to try my hand at the secret path. And what a daunting path it is. So many twists turns. "That path is too small even for my tiny dot" I figured as I approached the exit. Somehow I squeezed through, maybe the dot sucked in his gut, I will never know. Nothing but ecstasy could describe my emotions as I approached the final exit before my prize. I reached for the edge of the circle and when I came to there was bacon in front of me. Delicious salty bacon. What greater reward is there in this world than that? As I ate my biscuit and cookie, sucked on my lollipop, and nommed my bacon, I reflected on my past deeds. And I must say, it was worth it all.
[PART2]It took one try to get through 3 and I expected it to end there, but wait, what is this new number before me? Level 4? And the message, is it written to me? How can this be? I ran into the wall to go back to the menu so I could reload the level, but the message was still there. Perhaps it was meant for me to find. Perhaps, just maybe, I had somehow helped the creator, but I could never know. After shaking off the amazement, I made my way to the exit. Level 5!? I am starting to wonder how many levels there are. Never before has a game included so much new content in a sequel. Level 6, and there it is. The choice...do I exit this maze and claim my easy prize, or push for bigger rewards? Then I remembered, I can just come back here with level select. So I took my easy prize. A lollipop. The easy prize was so innocent, so simple, that just earning it gave me joy.
[PART1] After playing through the second game and coming away disappointed, I was hesitant to play this one. Man was I mistaken. This game ups the ante on every front imaginable. It has more levels, more challenge, more secrets, and more treats. You can imagine the smile on my face as I played through the first level after realizing the improvements that obviously went into this game. I carefully made my way to the exit, ever slow, ever precise. I couldn't more ecstatic as level two opened up and looked more menacing than the last. I raced for the exit, but I bumped a wall. "drat" I thought. Now I will have to make my way through level one again. As the menu loaded back in I noticed a new option for level select. I thought "could this really work". I clicked on it and I was able to start right back where I left off. This time I made it through lvl 2.
After such pure joy from the original, you can imagine my eagerness to dive into the sequel. While I am not disappointed with the game as a whole, the sense of wonder is gone. I knew there would be only 3 levels and the third would contain a secret exit to extra levels, but it didn't matter. I felt I have been there done that. Now when I complete the normal path or the secret path, I do not get a cookie or biscuit, but a button to try again. Why? Where is the incentive? Is the author toying with my emotions. Reluctantly I try again, hoping for a treat, but alas, there is no treat. I feel empty inside, so very empty.
This game is like crack. Everytime I beat it, I think that I could do better and I formulate a new strategy of how to keep my every growing blob small. But alas, I fail again, and again I get back up and try again.
With a new sense of purpose, I trudged through levels 1 and 2 with great speed. That red ring will be mine! I charted my course for the red ring and with great anticipation, I entered. "What is going to happen?" I though. When the light cleared, lo and behold, I had reached the secret level with a new red ring in the center. With full eagerness, I waded through the maze, ever wondering what would be next. I passed the final corner and entered the ring. Once again, I completed my endevor and my reward this time around...a cookie. And it was the most delicious cookie I had ever earned.
This is the most amazing maze game I have ever come across. Simple put, the game is stunning. You start off simple enough with wide open gaps and easy to breeze through, but by the time you get to the second level, you better have your dexterity maxed out. After finally working so hard to get to that green circle, the ultimate challenge happens in the form of a choice. Do I continue on the green circle path the game wants me to or do I choose this new red circle that tempts me so? Regrettably, I chose comfort and fought my way to the green circle. My reward for winning...a biscuit!? What, am I dog?
This game is a fun time waster. i just wish that you could actually do something during the races. They made mini-games for training, why didn't they translate some of that to the races themselves.
