Hehe, it's hard to do it @saimo! That is my strategy as well, but little buggers always find a way somehow, not the first one, but the second guy. The best way is to wait them out in a vertical position, not the horizontal. One more thing, I totally appreciate that I can continue to play the game when the timer runs out, just no time bonus. Timer is a killer in any game, especially if it is a game over timer. Thanks for that!

Yep, that's the best solution.

In general, time is a very delicate matter, but I wouldn't go that far: it depends on the game and on the role that time has. In my games I use time in different ways (or don't use it all).
In this case, I thought that the time shouldn't stop progress - and I'm happy to get your approval!

By the way, speaking on time and points, here's an excerpt from the TIPS section of the manual:
Quote:
Given that the time left at the end of an arena awards points, it is best to pick up the TIME bonus as late as possible.
The absolute best is when fighting against the Ikuwor; however, since doing that might be very difficult due to the speed of the Ikuwor (and the same goes for the Hodwor), it is a good compromise to do it just before or after killing the
last wor before the Hodwor.
When there are a TIME bonus and one or more keys, an optimal strategy is: pick up all but the key closest to the TIME bonus; kill all the wors (Hodwor and Ikuwor included); pick up the TIME bonus; pick up the key.

I was sooooo close 328gts, it was in my grasp and then I became greedy and did a Scarface entrance into the maze after dying. We all died!

I will, absolutely, this game totally deserves it! Unfortunately, high scores will not be presented here unless individual making them have Amigans.net account, just to be fair to the others and to follow the rules.

@saimo

Twice today I ran out of keys. I read the manual but couldn't see what to do in that case. Do I just abort the game (escape x2) or there are other options? Thanks!
