Title: scud hammer....scoring?
Post by: severdhed on March 30, 2009, 08:47:11 pm
i recently stumbled across a game called scud hammer the other day, which turned out to be a pretty stupid game of paper, rock, scissors...where the loser gets beat up.  the problem is my 2 year old thinks it is hilarious and wants me to keep playing it.

i just cant seem to figure out the scoring in this game.  there is a countdown then you press a button that corresponds to rock, scissors, or paper.  if you lose two rounds, they beat you up and the game is over.  if you win once, you beat them up a little, then play again...if you win again, you knock them out and then the game is over.  you are then presented with a ranking.  i just cant seem to figure out how ton increase the ranking...it seems to be random almost.  the AI is pretty predictable, so winning 8 or 9 rounds in a row is not difficult...i just dont understand how the scoring works. i figure if i have to play this game, i should at least play it well.

so...any ideas???
