I glossed right over it. So here's a sort of average score for me (though it was my only play so far tonight). Some lame deaths (including the last one, where I got caught in the statue trying to move sideways before the trap door opened...Obviously I didn't watch for the puff of steam! And I thought I knew the game!!), but not bad. You get a lot of extra Indies. Anyways, these are in the info, but essentially there are two ways I repeatedly added a bunch of points to my score. Learn em, love em, do em. In no time you'll be scoring high. |

By the way. I recommend you play this in MAME .146 at least, as the audio is superb. You can almost tell it's Ford's voice at times, and the sound field in general is spacious. Gives you that minty fresh feeling! |

78,590 on my second game. I can do better. My last death was weird--I was cruising around the 3rd "stone" stage & guess I was too generally near the lava & fell in--I thought I was far away... I don't see any super secret point scoring opportunities--I just played it straight. Memorization on the cart stage can lead to big points whipping the Thuggees standing trackside. So fun to keep whipping the Thuggees & watching them twitch & scooch down the screen till they fall. "The Mamushka!" 115u2 doesn't save high scores, BTW. Thanks, -Jason |

It's right in the history.dat . So here's a score. Some retarded deaths, some times I got cheated, like in the last image. I was right under it, but no. Anyways, something to shoot for. Note that going the EASY route means you have to go through the caves and mine cart *four* times. |
