Possible Bug?

After logging into the game, going on my adventure, doing my chores and favor, and playing and beating the first level of the ice cream game I went and looked at my photo albums.

I had previously completed the IF, Wilt, and Eduardo albums but as I was looking through them I noticed that I was missing one picture each from the Wilt and Eduardo album. Picture 9 from Eduardo and picture 38 from Wilt.

I then went and checked the minigames and it appears as though level 1 of All Washed Up has re-set itself.

Has this happened to anyone else?

[coco_4_ever]

yea that happens now and then to alot of people

The second mini-game

The second mini-game brings back really fond memory of the Atari Mario Bros. game where the enemies were turtles, crabs and other bugs and it used to be my favorite game

My suggestion is to flip the junks right on the edge so they either fall off (when really close to the edge) and save you the trouble of going up to finish them or they sit on the edge and become obstacles so other junks can't get down. Grab the invincibility whenever it appears since you can destroy all enemies (including the bombs) by walking pass them in this mode. The tool boxes are worth double the points of the junks. And the purple junks tend to move faster than the blue ones so tackle those first if you have a choice.

After finishing the April update we should have up to #53 in the Mac & Bloo Album and there are altogether 92 pictures in it now. So far only adventure pictures are included in this one and if the same rule continues to apply, we are looking at quite a few more updates in the future

Some advice for the Frozen Frenzy game:

Try to make as many chains of ice creams you can in a row. What I mean by this is if you have a strawberry and chocolate next to it, but below, try to make it so that when you get the 3 strawberries in a row, 3 chocolates will drop down and get the chocolates right after. You'll get a x2 bonus. If you can get a chain of 3 drop, that's even better.

I was able to get the high score by Level 14 or 15 by trying to get as many x2's as I could.

If you don't get what I mean, let me know and I'll pm you a screen shot.

The second mini-game brings back really fond memory of the Atari Mario Bros. game where the enemies were turtles, crabs and other bugs and it used to be my favorite game

Mario Brothers is actually Nintendo. (yes it was on the 2600) but it is one of the first Nintendo Arcard Games, it was common to see Mario Brothers in the late 80's doubled up with or near Duck Hunt.

Basic tips, if you hit an enemy from directly underneath and he lands there. hit him from a angle and he will arc to the side instead of going strait up. You can hit more than one at a time if they are close together. It is better to try to hit them on the top row. alternate sides frequently otherwise they slip down to your level. If you flip on over and do not collect it, when the other baddies bump into it they change directions. this can be used to keep them on the top platform.
Take your time, and practice. it takes about 20 levels to get the high score.

As for the ICe cream game, it is like vic said, get combos to get the best multipliers, I also got High score around level 15. Do not forget to rotate the pieces by using the z. to prevent running out of time (this happened to me on one level) use the Down arrow when you have a scoop aligned. I think this game is more similar to "Dr Mario" which was a varient off the game Collumbs(sp) this is different from tetris in many ways. so please no one compare it to tetris because it is not. try to line things up vertically. for example if you have a Strawbery comb next to a chocolate, and you get a chocolate,strawbery scoop, then make sure the flavor matches the column even if the combes are at different levels, it will help create combos. If you make a mistake with the virtical column. remember you can take away by forming a Horizontal row of the same flavors. the longest line of a single flavor without a combo is 8, I have not done this yet, but I did have a 7 and many 5,6.

here are some of the newer buddies from the last few weeks,:

Ok I made some screenshots of Frozen Frenzy,

These are examples of combos and good point earners.
Please Do not ask for more explanation of these, some notes were added into the images, but the game takes practice if you never played it before. And if you are use to tetris this game is different and you would have to retrain yourself on spotting combos.

oh man I might have to start playing again if theres a Dr. Mario clone... i use to dominate EVERYONE at that game...

Oh how i miss the ol 8 bit days

Well so far I have experienced a few glitches in Frozen Frenzy.

on several occations after completing a Horizontal row (with a cone in it), it did not give me more scoops. It happend once on Game 1 and twice on game 2.

when completing several things at once, they process one after another, not in parrellel. Horizontal completions take presedence over vertical. in game 2 there are three scoops at a time, and the sunday gives more points when it blows up more scoops. it is hard to detemin how the points are working, I think it is glitchy, but for the most part combos give you points, and cones give you multipliers. but when you get multiple cones inside combos I do not think the scoring is completely consistant, (or at least the pattern is hard to detect without messing up and loosing a spoon)

Power ups are random, some times they are frequent and other times they are not. There is no consistancy.

if a multicolor is used, on horizontal rows it chooses the left match, on vertical it prefers the bottom match.

Sorry for my lack of updating the What you get list, I will post it later this week when I get time, 3 of my four accounts are a day behind due to a BFAHP glitch, and a phone call made me miss what I collected from the Game2 of Frozen Frenzy

Mac and Bloo pictures

Is it just me or does the Mac and Bloo Album have a ALOT more picture slots in it that it did before?

I wonder how we will be getting those pictures as there are not supposed to be any more updates and you only get a Mac & Bloo pic at the end of an adventure.

[montitech]

I noticed this a few days ago,

There is space for 40 more photos in Mac&Bloo album following this update. also the Splash screen for this months update says they will be adding more content. It just does not say when the content will be added.
