Mr Anderson wrote:How the scoring works:

When you crush the fish with the roller the points increase each time - 50, 100, 200, 400, 800, 1600, 3200, 6400 then 9000. On the first level you can crush one 9000 point fish (unless you're lucky and get two with the same brush stroke) - after this the fish refuse to follow you onto the path of the roller. On the second level the points for the fish start at 100 and you can crush two 9000 point fish. On the third level the points for the fish start at 200 and you can crush three 9000 point fish. And so on.
Thanks for the replay...

Also see the tips on the intarweb which pretty much reinforce your help. Go for the fish.

It seems clear to me that anyone with a higher score than mine must be points whoring :)

The tips are really helpful, but it does sort of feel like points whoring going back and forth on the rollers even if it does take amazing skill on the later levels. I don't think its whoring though...otherwise my score would suck :wink:

I think that because the whoring is limited by the game itself (by limiting the maximum number of fish you can get on a level) then it's permissible.

Anyone?

Why doesn't that car on the side come out sometimes and do a few max RPM wheelspins over those fish.

I've changed my mind again. I do hate this game after all.

Getting better, although I think I need a drink to calm down after abusing my PC so much. Firgging annoying game, but addictive.
