I am really enjoying this game.  I must get better with moving around, but it is just my first several times.

Note:  For now, you can only have two players on a side.  It is set up for four a side, whenever they let that happen.

Got three rounds in each game, and not sure why, but I got to play "get over the bridge before the headless horseman gets you" (otherwise known as the final challenge) by myself.  i have lost those.  Credits aren't super great, but have been going up since I am learning.

I haven't the game tried yet, dying too though.  

I want to get some of these other "vfk chores" done first though.  


Keep us posted Ducky.  It sounds like it's fun!    :clapping:

Thanks Duck.i!  Haven't even seen what this looks like yet!  LOL  Just got caught up (sortof), so I can breathe a little now -gasps-...

Looking forward to giving it a try!

Hero played a little of this game last night: it does look pretty neat and Wo, something I might even try....hehe

He does pretty good it looks like, but man he can't get away from that horseman to save his hide.  It is amazing how FAST that guy is upon you and BOOM you are a goner.  It's really a shame that the credit payouts are so pitiful on the VFK games.  I fear that within a week or so, this too will be deserted, sigh.

Seems like hitting the ghosts is simple enough, but what do I know, lol.  Maybe I shall give it a try soon.

Tried it out today...fun game.  Now if I can get rid of my lag, I just might have a shot at escaping the Horseman!

Just found out, that if you get by the Headless Horseman to win, the prize is doubling the credits you had won.  (and no, it was not me sadly)

You may know this already, but I did not.  When you are in one of the lobbies, and they have two tombstones that say "the rules" and "escaped!", that "escaped" is a list of all the recent players who were able to beat the Headless Horseman.  I saw someone's title we all know.. Bionicle_Hero!  Congrats to young Flame!

Thanks Duck.i and Astro :)  He played a wicked game last night.  He said the 'escaped' tombstone was blank yesterday.  I heard him win, but was uber busy with other shtuff (figuring out logistics on how in the heck I was gonna hook up my new Blu-Ray player to my DSL gateway...without running 100ft. of Cat5e cable...  :hitwall: )...so wasn't able to watch at all (still haven't seen the game yet...just saw the new halloween magic for the first time last night  :shy: ).  LOL.  No idea how he won.  I don't think that even he knows!

Woot Ducky!! You escaped!!! Yay!!    :yes!:

Woot Hero for being one of the first escaping with success! :thumb:

Thank you for the congrats  :)  I've been having fun playing this game.  For some reason, I can play it better at VFK than I did at VMK.  I don't know why.  Maybe shooting them is better for me than vacuuming them...   :hmm:

My guess, is that when we vacuumed them, you had to be right on top of the ghost.  Whereas, here you have some distance you can shoot them from, so it's a bit easier to maneuver.  Maybe?

Congrats, ladies :)  I STILL have yet to even SEE this game  :shy:  Although, if it means I don't have to 'hug a ghost' like on VMK, then I think I will do better with this game and some...distance ;)

First of all, congratulations to Hero, Purpleduck, and Fish.i!  :wavet: :2thunbs:

Add us to the list of "haven't played it yet". Maybe sometime this week we will have a chance to give it a try. Sounds like it is pretty fun.  :thumb:

Anyone else notice this?

Seems that when I touched Duck with the mouse, it reacted as though I was from the opposite color.  It froze me, and I lost points!

I never noticed that.  However, I haven't played the game yet, either.   :lolg:  I just got my first view of the lobby the other night when we met there, Duck.i!  LOL.  I know, I know.  Pathetic.   :hmm:
