Neopets 1,000th Game: Techo Says



In today's news Neopets released a new game, well at least they call it new, called Techo Says. It is the 1,000th Neopets game. Really, though, it is just another game remake and really it does not seem all that different than the original Techo Says. Anyways, I do like this game and it is nice to see it back.

I think it is a little of a disappointment for being the 1,000th. Would have been nice to see something new or at least have released Techo Says before Destruct-o-Match III and have that as the 1,000 since it is a great redo.

What do you think of this being the 1,000th game?

Better Than You: The Usul Suspects

This week's Better Than You features Lumi. Below is his challenge statement.

"Argh! A little help here? I don't know how much longer I can hold them off! Please just do what you can. If we make it out of here in one piece I'll bake you a cake!"

To beat him you must get 1,700 points in The Usul Suspects. It is not even worth trying for me this week, as my high score for this game is only in the 300s.

Prize is Nimmo Day Fruit Cake for the 500 winners. Additionally, you get a Gold Trophy and 20,000 Neopoints if you are the first 10, Silver Trophy and 10,000 Neopoints if you are between the 11th and 50th, and a Bronze Trophy and 3,000 Neopoints if you are between 51st and 500th.

Good Luck to all and remember to comment and share your tips on this game to help other readers out.

New Game: Destruct-O-Match III

I guess this came out a few days ago, but I only just noticed that this new game came out. Wow, I really did not think they would go to a third version of a Neopets game until they did so with a Meerca Chase game. Destruct-O-Match III is pretty much the same as the earlier versions, but has the some added special blocks. There are also two new modes called Double Trouble and Double Trouble Extreme. In the Double Trouble you are playing two games side by side at once. In the regular one it is not a big deal, but the extreme version can get quite wild. Overall it is not that much different, but it certainly is an interesting improvement.

First is was Whack-a-Kass becoming Kass Basher and now I notice this is no longer Whack-a-Staff (or whatever it was). Perhaps I just did not notice and they changed both at the same time.

Game Guide and Review: NeggSweeper

My last Game Guide and Review by id number was on Grarrl Keno. The next game going in id number order is NeggSweeper with an id number of 54. If you have a request for a guide on a specific Neopets game, then just comment on any of my game guide posts and I will put that on top of my list of games to review. When I do not have requests, then I will just continue going in order by id number.

NeggSweeper

This is like playing Minesweeper. The concept of playing the game is simple, but it does take strategy and occasionally some luck. It is fun to play when you get bored and do not know what to do, but it can also become monotonous fast.

In the game you try to not click on the boxes with Negg bombs underneath them. You start by clicking one (I usually start in the corners). You hope to get it to open up the area to reaveal some number boxes that can help you determine where the Neggs are located. The numbers tell you how many Negg bombs are touching that specific square. The 1s can really help you narrow down what can and cannot be a Negg bomb. Sometimes you will get stuck and be unable to logically pair it down to what box to click and you just have to guess, but overall this is more of a strategy game than a luck game.

Better Than You

This week's Better Than You features Cylara. Below is his challenge statement.

"You gotta help me! Gorix and I just found out there are some robot Petpets that have wandered into the Recycling Centre on the Virtupets Space Station! We need to hurry or who knows what will happen to the poor things. Give it your best shot, those Petpets are counting on us!"

To beat him you must get 2,100 points in Bumble Beams. I am going to try this week, but I doubt I will win.

Prize is Dont Push That Button! for the 500 winners. Additionally, you get a Gold Trophy and 20,000 Neopoints if you are the first 10, Silver Trophy and 10,000 Neopoints if you are between the 11th and 50th, and a Bronze Trophy and 3,000 Neopoints if you are between 51st and 500th.

*I give up on this new version of the game. Just too frustrating, especially since I used to be good at it. Would be a whole different story if they made it easier to play. Now that is a game redo I would love to see.*
Score 1: 1,102 points 826 Neopoints *Yes, I actually did almost triple yesterday's attempt, but this game just seems like too much work to get the same results as the old version, which did not take as much effort.

Interesting coincidence, although I would rather have replicated yesterday's first score of 984. Even better would be to finally get another score over 1,000, but that is not likely to happen.*

Game Guide and Review: Grarrl Keno

My last Game Guide and Review by id number was on Tyranu Evavu. The next game going in id number order is Grarrl Keno with an id number of 48. If you have a request for a guide on a specific Neopets game, then just comment on any of my game guide posts and I will put that on top of my list of games to review. When I do not have requests, then I will just continue going in order by id number.

Grarrl Keno



This is a luck based game. In the game you select up to 10 of the 50 eggs. 10 of the eggs will hatch when you place your bet and you win based on how many of your chosen eggs hatch. The prize chart depends on how many eggs you select. Below is chart of the prizes based on the amount of eggs chosen.

1 Egg Selected: Nothing because you have to select at least two eggs!

2 Eggs Selected: 1 match means you get your bet back and 2 matches mean you get 5 times your bet back



3 Eggs Selected: you get 2 matches you get 3 times your bet back, 3 matches gets you 25 times your bet back



4 Eggs Selected: 2 matches gets you 2 times bet back, 3 matches gets you 5 times your bet back, 4 matches gets you 80 times your bet back



5 Eggs Selected: 2 matches gets you your bet back, 3 matches gets you 2 times your bet back, 4 matches gets you 10 times your bet back, 5 matches gets you 600 times your bet back



6 Eggs Selected: 3 matches gets you 2 times your bet back, 4 matches gets you 8 times your bet back, 5 matches gets you 50 times your bet back, 6 matches gets you 1,500 times your bet back



7 Eggs Selected: 3 matches gets you your bet back, 4 matches gets you 5 times your bet back, 5 matches gets you 15 times your bet back, 6 matches gets you 250 times your bet back, 7 matches gets you 5,000 times your bet back



8 Eggs Selected: 4 matches get you 4 times your bet back, 5 matches gets you 8 times your bet back, 6 matches gets you 40 times your bet back, 7 matches gets you 400 times your bet back, 8 matches gets you 10,000 times your bet back



9 Eggs Selected: 0 matches gets you your bet back, 4 matches gets you your bet back, 5 matches gets you 2 times your bet back, 6 matches gets you 20 times your bet back, 7 matches gets you 80 times your bet back, 8 matches gets you 2,500 times your bet back, 9 matches gets you 15,000 times your bet back



10 Eggs Selected: 0 matches gets you your bet back, 4 matches gets you your bet back, 5 matches gets you 2 times your bet back, 6 matches gets you 30 times your bet back, 7 matches gets you 100 times your bet back, 8 matches gets you 500 times your bet back, 9 matches gets you 3,000 times your bet back, 10 matches gets you 10,000 times your bet back



The amount you can bet is based on how long you have been on Neopets. The base bet limit is 50 and the limit is risen by 2 Neopoints per day you have been on Neopets. You can choose to bet whatever you want up to the max limit for your account.

This is kind of an interesting luck game with the dinos hatching in the end, but it is one of the worst luck based games to make a profit on at least in my experience. Basically not really worth playing just to see the hatching animation.

Better Than You

This week's Better Than You features Ursula. Below is his challenge statement.

"Even on the weekends I'm always training for Gormball. It's not just all luck you know! It takes a lot of hand-eye coordination to throw a Gormball. That's why I love to play Wingoball on my off time, as I can really hone my skills while enjoying a beautiful garden. It can get a bit dull playing by yourself all day though. What do you say? Are you up to a challenge?"

To beat him you must get 1,054 points in Wingoball. Another game I do not have much of a chance at beating the Better Than You score.

Prize is Ursula Bobblehead for the 500 winners. Additionally, you get a Gold Trophy and 20,000 Neopoints if you are the first 10, Silver Trophy and 10,000 Neopoints if you are between the 11th and 50th, and a Bronze Trophy and 3,000 Neopoints if you are between 51st and 500th.
