Since today is Munkie Day (no really – it is), I thought I should honour it with an inaugoral play of Super Monkey Ball. And, since my DS is the consol de moment, what better than Touch and Roll? Which, as I now recall, is too sodding hard. I have the Volcano World, on which I get stuck on level 7 or 8, and then Ice World where I got to level 9 or 10, and lost 16 lives. It’s …
Had a go at completing two more worlds today, and failed. I managed to get as far as the last level on the Volcano World, but lost some 10 lives or more there failing to do it. Much the same story for Ice Lolly Land, although I didn’t have so many lives left at the end but failed to finish it anyway. The really narrow path at the end of the course got me every single time. Played Monkey Bowling …
Finished another world today, without any difficulty at all. Not sure how I managed that, as it was one I was previously stuck on. Even had about ten lives left at the end of it. Didn’t do so well on the end game thing though – only 193 bananas. Played Monkey Bowling Challenge Super Happy Fun Mode for a bit then, and completed the first level. Tried the second level, but ran out of “throws”, so failed.
Completed another two “worlds” today, having spent ages and ages trying to get past the Starfish level. It’s just like one of the levels in Super Monkey Ball 2 on the Gamecube (as, in fact, many levels are), but for some reason, it’s $hlmun times harder on the DS game. I think I might be due to the gap in the “star” being narrower, and the star stopping for a shorter time. Anyway, with that level out of the way, …
Just a brief play today. Tried the third world (jungle, or something, i think) and got stuck on a level right out of Super Monkey Ball 2 on the Gamecube. It’s called Starfish, and is bloody hard. Went back to the Desert World instead, and managed to complete it with ease this time, and got 239/500 bananas in the End Of Game Credits Game.
New game day! Well, almost every day is New Game Day at the moment, but anyway. Played through the first world, completing it without much difficulty (and with ten lives spare afterwards), and then moved onto the desert world. Got to level 9 I think, and lost my last life there. I played all of the party games then, including a full round of Monkey Mini Golf on which I scored 55. It would have been much lower, but Hole …
