This
is the second version of XFlood.
If the
screen disappears on you, just
hit the REFRESH button on the
game.
You
have to plot your course through
a field of cells with different
point values.
Instructions:
This
game is a little tricky to get
the hang of, but it's easy once
you get started.
- Click
anywhere in the bottom row
to establish your marker.
- The
number of points on that space
is added to your score.
- You
can move only left or right,
one cell at a time, to one
of the adjacent cells in the
bottom row, framed in white.
- You
can only move horizontally,
within the bottom row, only
to.
- When
you click 'Next' your turn
is over and all rows move
down 1 row.
Your
score is then updated according to
the type of space that moved down
over your marker:
| |
Numerical:
P:
T:
B:
Z: |
Adds that number to your
account
Adds or subtracts between 0 and 500
Adds or subtracts between 0 and 4000
Subtracts 100, 200, 300 - 900
sets your counter to 0 |
The goal is to get the highest score!
The strategy involves looking at all the rows above and trying to place your marker in a good spot - avoid those
Z's and don't get trapped between two Z's!
Check the row one level up and see if you can catch one of the good cells, but be aware that you have to cross other cells to get there.
To make this aspect more challenging, some of the upper rows are colored solid orange at random intervals.
Click on 'Refresh' to redraw
