I can't seem to get a good game in the past few days. There's always the elusive potion or ingredient that NEVER shows up, or in some games I get three dynamites, and some games I get NONE. Seems like the best way to do good in this game is just to have a good luck streak. One game I got over 500,000 points and multiple gold nuggets, and my last few games I barely get 50,000 points. Driving me nuts!

Yeah this game is driving me crazy... you get the board set up the way you want, and the one piece that will allow you to clear the board never shows up, so you have to block it, and it ends up screwing up the entire game for you... only to show up after you have blocked it. And dynamites never show up when you need them. I've gotten 2 dynamites at the beginning of the game when I don't need them, and never get then when I do need them. Bleh....

It's like all Tetris games, you have to GUESS where the computer meant for a piece to go, because that's it, it makes plans and if you screw up following them - tough luck... Here at least you have all the time you need to think about it and look at both the current piece and the next one, so it's a bit easier. Of course, in Tetris you don't get unseen yet items which fall once in a blue moon and clutter the board... nor do pieces morph all of a sudden or appear like that, duh.

P.S. The end game line is too damn low!

well yeah , luck is important . once i got SEVEN dynamites mostly in the begining , when i didn't need them like today i've ended with 1.42mil points but the best ingredient i was given was an eye
