Berzerk

Stuck on levels 2 and 3.

On 2, I can't get back to get more pow and I only have 1 charge left. I think maybe I should be able to get them to kill themselves but that's not working either.

Haven't worked through 3 much, I'm guessing that's mainly a speed factor.

Help/hints appreciated.

Thanks!

I'm not sure whether this is obvious or not, but I only realized it during beta testing

When you want to hit something with POW you don't have to aim at the precise tile the object is at. Just aim somewhere behind the object and you will hit it.

This fact made it possible for me to complete the Berzerk levels - something I would otherwise had given up on.

Specific hints:
Berzerk #2: Once you have dodged the first round of zap-bots go back to the charger area and stay there. Then you can recharge all the times you need while shooting the zap-bots using diagonal shots.

Berzerk #3: There is a pattern in which the chompers get spawned - and they can't spawn if you're standing on the spawning spot. Use that to your advantage. I found it very difficult to kill the chompers by diagonal shots, so I always made sure that they would come at me in a straight line. And then it's speed - and practice...

Thanks, Mette! That was the hint I needed on Berzerk 2. I stayed in the center like you said instead of wandering around the outside like I was trying.

Now, on to Berzerk 3!

In berzerk 2, I have zapped all trhe bots, but it still says that there is one left. Can anyone explain this ,please?

I had the same problem a while ago, and the answer never dawned on me before I read mette's tips. My guess is that you're standing on where one's supposed to spawn, preventing it from spawning.

I have zapped all the z-bots but it says that there is still one to go. I have stood on all the squares waiting for a new one to appear, but to no avail. How do I get the last one to show up?

I don't think you can once it's too late. I might be missing something, but I think you just have to avoid being on the certain spot where they spawn when they spawn.

Okay. Thanks.
I guess I'll just start again.

On the 2nd level, I just stayed on the POW charger. I'm having trouble on Level 3 because those Mecha-Chompers are fast and I keep running out of POW spells.

How often are you recharging?
