Money Puzzle Exchanger Thoughts...

greenspun.com : LUSENET : MAME Action Replay : One Thread

Here's something for your page Chris P.

I scored 197,000 points in score in solo play. Every 10,000 points you score is worth one point toward your total score. This means I scored 19 points in this category, right?

WRONG!

I only scored 16 points. So it makes me wonder... is there a perfect score in Money Puzzle Exchanger? It would be 64 points, because there's four categories. I think such a score would probably be the greatest feat in puzzle video games, because you'll have to get to level 32 or something like that... which is virtually impossible... I've never gotten by level 21... and that mark I think I've done once... my 52 point game. You also have to get a 15 chain at one time... which is a little more possible... but VERY hard to do(I think I have the record of 12...)

BTW... I think 48 is a cursed number... I've gotten that score THREE TIMES this tournament! Grrrr...(I shoulda had a 50 if they gave me 19 points instead of 16...)

Just a couple thoughts on the issue...

hey, I never noticed that the game maxes out at 16 points for the final point score, but you're right. You could also be very well right about the highest possible score being 64, but I can't imagine anyone ever pulling that off.

I've gotten past Level 21, I think I made it to 24 once but my old 48-point recording (which is about to be overwritten, heh) gave me *14* points for reaching Level 23. Would this mean that it might be possible to get 16 points for reaching Level 25? That's very attainable. This would probably make Max Chain the hardest one to accomplish (BTW, I've pulled off a 12-chain too, just not on a recorded game). But what about the total number of chains? My record is something like 75, but I forgot how many points it awarded me. I think it gives 1 point for every 5 chains, right?

Lemme see if I got the scoring system correct... going by my highest saved score on MAME...

Total Points - 52 Score - 184,419 (16) Level - 23 (14) Max Chain - 8 (9) Number of Chain - 75 (13)

If the other values are correct (and I THINK they are), then I only got 13 points for getting 75 total chains. So how the hell is THAT calculated?!

Hello

I'm a mexican guy and this is the first time I see this site, but I can say that I made a 62 point score in solo play. I reached to level 39 (it's very difficult to pass to the next level), but I didn't made a high number of chains (I think i made 8). I don't remember the score but i think it vas a little high, because I had 16 point in that section. This game is really vicious. Until this moment I can't quit playing it each time I start NeoRage.

Well, thanks for your attention, and have a nice day (or night). If you want to contact me, write me to faustino24@hotmail.com

Byee.
