HELP–What is my problem?

  • NanasAbby

I have tried for days to beat the Eggs Blast score but I can not get any higher than 37,000.  I notice that other players are doing great.  Does anyone have any suggestions on how to improve my score?  I feel like an idiot.

    This is a silly thought I have-could players with huge scores have other people playing for them also?
    EX. I’m at work so my daughter/whoever plays the games.

      This is one of the games I am not good at.  I understand the tips people give but it’s just not one of my games.  I am fast at Lights Camera Subtraction and Sparks and the Solitaire games.  

      Right now I only have 7 games over Shannons score.  I will be buying some entries.

     

      And one of the things that the good players tell us to do is: practice, practice, practice!   Like 50-100 games a night!  Not just 1 or 2 games a night.  Once you get good, you don;t need to play as many unless you like the game!

     

      But don’t feel bad….most of us are not good at all the games.  Of course there are some people and we see them on the Leaderboards…and they are good at many if not all of the games.

     

      NanasAbby, if you can’t get your 20 games over Shannons score,  then you can “buy” your entries with the alternate method in the Rewards Store.  Only costs 2 tickets per entry.   

     

      So dont miss out on your chance to win the $250.00!

    I usually have a problem when playing EggsBlast…the eggs or bombs get stuck in the cannon after a certain level and will not shoot. I’m usually on a tablet using IE, I have mentioned this problem before, but no one has ever given me any feedback. Is this part of the game or a technical problem? I end up having to quit the game and start over….bummer cause I really like this game.

    Also remember that you can ‘power shoot’ those bombs.  If you see one drop out of the hopper, aim and fire quick.  The regular eggz take longer to shoot and release, at least on my pc. You can shoot the bombs in quick succession without hesitating in between.  Learning to hit the sides of the screen to go around the eggz to hit the backboard is essential, too,  as lemire said.

     

    Keep it up everyone.  You’ll get it.

    Try playing with IE or Edge not Chrome, my scores almost triple playing with another browser.

    I by far am not an Ace at this game but I can beat Shannon’s score.  In addition to what has been posted already, you can “bank” your shots to go around stuff in the middle.  What I mean is if the eggs are in the middle, aim at the side wall and you will bounce around all those eggz and go straight to the top.  Like Mixmaster said – you aren’t trying to shoot eggz, you are only trying to clear a path to get to the top.  Many of your boards you can clear in one shot by hitting the side wall and going around.  When you get bombs, I bank those also, off the side wall just enough to get rid of enough in the upper corner to make my next shot hit the backwall.  Hope this helps.  I know how frustrating it is to know others know things that you don’t.  We need to start a thread with Tips and Tricks so other gamers can help us all with all of the games.

    This is probably real obvious but someone didn’t get it last time so I’ll add it.  First, I’m playing on a desktop pc, don’t know how the game plays on other devices.  

     

    The point of the game is not to remove all the eggs.  It is to remove as few eggs as possible to get to the backboard.  Every egg left is what gives you the higher scores.

     

    Each egg removed before you get to the back board counts as 10 points no matter what level you are on.  Each egg left when you hit the back board counts as 10 points TIMES the level you are on.  So if you are on level 4 and you have 20 eggs left, each egg counts as 40 points (10 times 4).  The higher the lever you get, the higher the points on the eggs left.

     

    On the first couple of rounds, just knock those eggs out of the way fast, because the eggs left don’t count for much and you need the time for later in the game.  That’s my strategy anyway.   Lots of people are better than I, judging from the scores. 

     

    Hope that helps and other people will give us more help.  I can usually score between 40,000 to 60,00 points, so there is still room for improvement.
