Welcome to round 1 everybody. This time we start with a puzzle game, but one which still requires lightning reflexes and nerves of steel.
I was unable to find out how many levels there are in this game, but up to level 13 only takes 30mins or so, and the game gets fairly impossible by then anyway. So I havent set a level limit yet in case players can finish the whole game. I'll look at the scores by the end of week 1, and work out a good way to get the star award. The new rules for 2024 are now up on Lemon, along with the season schedule. No rule changes this year, everything remains as normal. I'll post these to EAB hopefully soon. I had to put a token score on the leaderboard, to make the 2024 league table appear. That's why there is a zero score on there. Further help and tips can be found on the MobyGames web site. |

Thanks for dropping by!
We have only a week and a half remaining to play this classic game! The graphics were created by LucasFilm, and the game is listed as part of their publishing collection in between the Last Crusade games. It is a popular choice. If we can get a few more players on EAB, we can start to get some all-time attendance records! |

I added a rule about level 36, as the game looping seems to be broken on all the versions we have played so far. So anyone reaching level 36 now gets a super bonus. Rules updated.
