Aristos Queue Posted March 19, 2007 Report Share Posted March 19, 2007 This is kind of a dumb post, but I need a rules clarification from those who have higher scores than I on the game Plumber 2 ( http://forums.lavag.org/arcade.html&code=play&g=62 ) At level 14, there are multiple destination pipes. It appears to me that one of these pipes is a real destination, and the other is a fake and if you route the water to the wrong pipe, you lose the game. Is there any way to distinguish the real destination from the false destination? Is it random which is the real one, or is it always the same one and you just have to learn which is the real destination at each level and remember the next time you play? Quote Link to comment

Well I just tried it and reached level 14, and was thinking that the multiple outlets that appear after that were all just different paths you could choose...but evidently chose a "fake" one in level 17 and game over. I don't think there is a way to tell the fake from the real (I was looking at them pretty closely and they looked identical). But I wouldn't be surprised if the "right" one stays in the same location every time you reach that level again. Just a hunch. Quote Link to comment
Darren Posted March 20, 2007 Report Share Posted March 20, 2007 I've only made it to level 14, and I noticed that the left-most pipe seems to be the "fake" one. I only determined this by losing, then clicking "retry" after losing, since the "retry" lets you start over on the same level you just lost (unfortunately, your score is reset). -D P.S. - As for having "waaaaay too much time for playing games in the arcade", I'm currently in the middle of 5 weeks of paternity leave, and my older kids (not the newborn) *love* to watch me play [wiki]LAVA[/wiki] arcade games. Plus, it's a good time-killer when trying to rock a baby to sleep... Quote Link to comment

WhatABurger appears to be a bit large portion wise for little ones, you might need to switch to http://www.krystal.com/' target="_blank">Krystal burgers for the kiddies. I remember driving from my hometown in Western New York to Florida as a kid, and we stopped into a Krystals. My mom and dad were confused by the tiny burgers. Mom went to the suggestion box, but there were no suggestion cards left. She said out loud "People are leaving so hungry, they must eat the cards!" People waiting in line laughed...

It is also my experience that the left-most destination is the fake. I haven't noticed anything specific for other destinations. The game needs to clarify if a destination is 'invalid' or not. There is nothing there to indicate on way or the other, except trial and error.
