Wild West Treasures

Game Description: Click groups of three or more like-colored bricks to make them disappear. Destroy every brick, to get to the next level of play.

How to Play Wild West Treasures:

• After the game fully loads, click the 'Start' button.
• From the 'Main Menu' game screen, click the pulsating white circle near the upper right side. That circle represents Level 1, which if you are playing for the very first time, is the only unlocked level and the only level you may currently play. (If you have previously played Wild West Treasures, and your game was saved, you will see the pulsating circle in a different position which will represent the next unsolved level you may play. You may, if you wish, also go back to any earlier unlocked level, and begin play from that level position if you so desire).
• Click a group of three or more bricks of the same color to make them disappear.
• Your goal is to make all of the bricks disappear, before time runs out, to make it to the next level.
• If time runs out, or if you run out of moves, you will see a 'Game Over' screen. But, the game is not really over. Simply click the 'Restart' button on the 'Game Over' screen to replay the current level.
• If it looks like you made a mistake during game play, you may click the 'Restart' button at the bottom of the game screen at anytime to reset the current level and restart the clock.
• Click the 'Pause' button, located at the lower left corner to pause the game. Click anywhere on the game screen to resume play.
• If you fail a level, you may repeat a level as many times as you need until you succeed.
• There are 20 levels of play.
• Wild West Treasures should automatically save your level game progress. So, you should be able to come back here to Richard's Game Reviews and begin at the next unsolved level. However the game does not, as far as I can tell, save any previous scores. This means if you come back and begin at Level 10, for example, your score would begin at zero. Obviously, you would end up with a total lower score. To get the maximum score, or what I presume to be the maximum score, you would need to begin again back at Level 1. Of course if you are like me, and are not concerened about your total score, but you simply want to see how far you can progress in the game, just begin play on your last unsolved level.

Wild West Treasures Game Options: The game options must be set from the 'Main Menu' game screen. (You will find both controls at the bottom of that screen). As fas as I can determine, the only way to get back to the 'Main Menu' screen, after you begin play, would be to click the 'Quit' button and then click the 'Main Menu' button. However, if you do, you will lose your entire game score. So, make sure you set your game options before you begin to play the game. The game options are:

• The game sounds may be turned on or off.
• The background music may be turned on or off.

Wild West Treasures Playing Tips:

• When you get to Level 9, bombs will be introduced into the game. Click the bombs to blow up some of the surrounding bricks. At what point you decide to use the bombs will often determine your success, or lack thereof.
• Level 12 introduces the arrow bombs. Use an arrow bomb to destroy all bricks in a single row. Like the regular bombs, it is the point that you decide to use an arrow bomb that will determine your success.

Richard's Rating: 3 out of 5.

Comments: Wild West Treasures starts out very easy, but gets progressively more difficult as you go along. It did take me a while to get through all 20 levels, but eventually I did make it. The nice thing about this game is that you can certainly play it more than one time, because for the more difficult levels you simply won't remember how you solved them.
