YES, Karnov is a game that i have logged hours and hours on... shooting fire out of your armpit at a dragon while standing on a Magic Ladder. playing for a few minutes reveals that i am really rusty at this, i remember this game being hard but this is ridiculous. |

Made my first few plays last night and I realized how much I suck at this game. After about 10 - 15 games, the best I could do was around 40K. Obviously, a good bit of practice is needed here before I can post anything even respectable. I'm with you Eagles, I just don't remember this game as being all that hard. Perhaps my old age is creepin' up on me? ??? |

OK, after playing for a little bit, I do hereby retract my enthusiasm for Karnov. The game's not *hard*. The game is CHEAP! :( Man, your guy moves sooo slowly & jumps sooo slowly & some bad guys on the screen shoot so fast or move so fast that you haven't a chance. You can take a jump, then an enemy appears & his shots put you in a certain death situation before you've even landed. It's a game of memorization--memorize where the cheap shots are. Argh. But, I bet it keeps me coming back, because it is a challenge & it is very creative. -Jason PS: 81,450. This shouldn't last too long... |
