Kiko Match II

You have to be very observant and have a very good memory.

Goal : Match up the Kikos pairs as fast as possible.

Tips : Try to match the Kikos on the outside first as they are easier to remember.

Back to top

Attack of the Marblemen

Barry the Shoyru didn't put away his marbles-now they're pretty mad.

Goal : Marbles can only go into toy boxes that match their color.

Tips : To get them to go there, click on bumpers to guide them to their toy boxes. When you get to the levels where you have multiple marbles, don't focus entirely on one single marble until it is in its correct toy box-this will waste your time. Create the bumper path for one and don't bother to see it through, immediately work on your next marble.

Back to top

Maths Nightmare

In the Aisha's dream, each Babaa is carrying a math problem and the Babaas are moving toward you.

Goal : You must answer the math problem to make the Babaa jump the fence and leave the dream.

Tips : Use a calculator because the problems become really hard, choose level 5 (random) because it gives out the most points, and solve the problems that are closest to you first.

Back to top

Meepit Juice Break

In this game you are controlling the Juice-O-Matic, an overly complicated machine designed to deliver fresh Juppie Juice to Meepits.

Goal : At this home for lost Meepits, it's up to you to make sure all the little Meepit children get their daily Juppie Juice.

Tips : Always memorize the colors. You get double points if you feed the juice to the same Meepit. Remember: Red + Yellow = Orange, Red + Blue = Purple, Yellow + Blue = Green, Red + Yellow + Blue = Pink. Use the three-holed pipes to mix colors. If you type in juice-o-matic it will reset the Meepits's timers, this can be used only once per game. When you start the game, if you type in hungrymeepits you will receive an extra life. If you put all the pipes together you receive 50 points.

Back to top

NeggSweeper

Test your skills in this game of strategy. This is the same game as Mine Sweeper that you find on most computers.

Goal : Click on the silver Neggs and clear as many of them as you can. Click on the "secret" Neggs and you get bonus points. Try to find the bombs and flag them.

Tips : If there is a bomb with a 1 next to it, then you can click on all the neggs surrounding the 1. If there is a two with 2 bombs surrounding it then you can click on all the neggs around the two and so on.

Back to top

NeoQuest

You control a white Lupe to defeat the minions of evil.

Goal : Along the way, you will fight many monsters, gather items from enemies to gain stronger weapons and armor and complete quests.

Tips : They say that the Moonstone Staff (you don't get it until you are close to the end of the game) occasionally heals 45 HP. Think again! It only heals 30 HP for me! Some of you may want to stick with the Life Staff (that doesn't come until later, but sooner than the Moonstone Staff!) I also recommend a 50-50 mix of any two magic spheres as your skills from the beginning of the game to the end. These combos work well- Fire+Ice, Life+Spectral, Shock+Life/Spectral.

Back to top

NeoQuest II

It is vitally important that you read the instructions carefully, for the route ahead of you is very tough, very complicated and fraught with all manner of spiky-haired cute things.

Goal : You play the role of Rohane, a young Blumaroo who has left his home in search of adventure.

Raiders of Maraqua

Karpoh the Koi is an ambitious young neopet looking to impress his pirate bosses.

Goal : The goal is to push ALL of the treasure into the chest, so that the pirates can pull it up to their ship.

Snowmuncher

You have to guide Dieter the Polarchuck a very hungry Polarchuck who just loves munching snow!

Goal : Reach the bottom of each level before the time runs out.

Tips : Type buuuurrrrrrrp to reduce bloated meter by 50%. Once per game. Watch out for the Snow Wurms - if you release them they will come after you (but leave their treasures unguarded!)

Back to top

Sutek's Tomb

Legend has it that there was an ancient Geb named Sutek.

Goal : The object of the game is to switch 2 adjacent tiles (either horizontally or vertically) to match up 3 or more of the same symbol in a row.

Tip #1: For maximun neopoints, play on the hard difficulty. There are a LOT more opportunities for points here, due to the diffuculty, and the larger board.

Tip #2: Look at the bottom for combos first. By doing this, you maximize your potential for chain reactions, which in turn equals a lot of points and more and longer time lags.

Tip #3: Don't watch your time left. Doing so can lead to you losing time and potential points. Just keep going until time runs out on its own.

Tip #4: Keep your mind focused on just creating combos, let the chain reactions happen on their own. If you see a potential chain right away, then by all means, make it happen, but don't waste precious time by searching for one.

Tip #5: Combos don't have to be of 3 tiles only.You can get one of 4 or 5 of a single symbol if they are in the right place, or a 6 combo of you're lucky enough to spot a place where you can get 2 different symbols to clear at the same time. But as with chain reactions, don't bother to go out of your way to look for them, let them happen on their own.

Tip #6: Unless you get a message saying so, there is ALWAYS at least one move available. It may be hard to find, but it's there.

Tip #7: Sitting back a little, especially when in hard mode, helps you to see the whole board at once, and can help you find combos easier than if staring at a single spot. Those tiles are small!

Tip #8: Remember, look for vertical line combos as well horizontal ones, especially ones that require a vertical switch. Those are the hardest to find.These are usually the ones that exist when you can't see any moves right away.

Tip #9: When you see a combo, go for it, no matter where it is. You can use the time lag it creates to look for other combos. As long as your reaction time is fast, the slight time loss you may incur from going to the other side of the board won't be significant.

Tip #10: Use time lags wisely! Though this time is fairly short, use it to your advantage...search for other combos. If you get a chain reaction time lag, try to look for more than one combo to make when the time lag ends; don't waste time watching the chain.

Tip #11: Don't go out of your way to get a bomb to fall the 2 blocks necessary for its explosion of the line above it. Let it happen on it's own.

Tip #12: 3 bombs CAN be lined up to form a combo! Bombs are more commonly seen at the top, but if it's the only combo you see at the moment, go for it.

Tip #13: Don't forget your wild symbols! They don't appear too often, but use them to your advantage when you're stuck and can't find other combos.

Tip #14: Relax! If you are too tense, you can lose time, and miss combos that are obvious.

Tip #15: Have fun! Some games may have worse scores than others, just keep trying, luck is a small part of the game as well. Once you score 2000 points or more, you will receive a pop-up message after the score is sent allowing you to use the Sutek's Tomb Avatar!

Tip #16: Type plzsutekcanihavemoretime to get 30 seconds more time. You can only do this once in each game and it does not work while the game is paused or when the board is being shuffled.

Tip #17: Type Pyramibread while playing and it will show you a move.

The Castle of Eliv Thade

In the game you control Gilly, a poor Usul who was lost in the woods and accidentally stumbled into the Castle of Eliv Thade seeking shelter.

Goal : To escape, you must visit all four rooms, and collect an item from each, and then head to the Crypt to put the spirit of Eliv Thade to rest.

Tips : Type rehaxtint and you will get one extra hint.

Back to top

Word Poker

The pirates of Krawk Island are notoriosly bad spelers, and that is why it's always a good idea to pay a trip to Captain Roundhoof's pirate school.

Goal : In 60 seconds make as many words from the letters available. The game uses real words and neopian related words, so using negg is ok. At the end of the time you get points in 6 categories, you pick the one you did best in.

Tips : When a letter set has an s or an ed, pluralize the words. When playing if you make a 7 or more letter word you will get 50 points automatically. The full house is 50 points for 15 words and 150 points for 25 words. Its is harder to get 5 letter words so if you did really well in two or three on one round choose to keep the score in 5 letters. 4 and 3 are the easiest to score in. Using the keyboard rather than clicking the letters will increase the speed in which you can create words.
