A good strategy for Utopia level 4-5 is to bounce Terence through the two lollipops on the left side of the level, causing him to bounce into the asteroid in the north. The TNT on the northern planet should detonate, along with a lot of popcorn, clearing most of the top half of the level. Fire the other Terence through the bubbled pig and into the wooden structure on the southern planet to finish off the level. Alternatively, you can switch these two shots.
If you have a different strategy feel free to leave a comment below; however, don't just post your score via the comments, as that's what the leaderboards are for.
Clear first the bottom aim Terence on the bottom part of the left pig bubble but just bubble it up the pig will get frozen. Second Terence on the lollipop. Made 98400 this way
TY. First try, three stars.
score 96,560
@ Traneric. I found it easier to clear the bottom like you said. There was a clear path taking out the bottom this way. I found the other method had clutter keeping Terrance from doing a good job at the lower level. Good suggestion!TY!
First time ever with a top score, yeahh. I guess it won´t take long for another one to beat it. Same estrategy as Traneric. Many 95-96K. The key for 100K+ is that a piece of stone hits the farest TNT hidden under popcorn on the upper planet. Just luck.
Thanks @Traneric. After experimenting with the two basic approaches, it seems to me that this has the potential to yield slightly higher scores. By clearing most of th structure on the bottom, it leaves room for debris from the second shot (into the lollypops) to fall and break. I was able to get just over 99K after a few tries.
Also, it’s not totally necessary to get the pig in the bubble on the first shot. It often gets popped (though by no means every time) on the second. For high scores, if you don’t have at least 49-50K (with bubble pig) or 44-45K (without the bubble pig) after the first shot, it’s probably worth restarting.
Thanks 99330 using your method. Works for me!
I was ready to give up after many attempts and finally get +103k using Traneric method. Get +50k with the first bird. The trick is more on where to hit the lollipop. My recommendation it to target the first one.
I am having trouble with this..I only score in to high 80′s,low 90′s with this method..and with the walkthrough I can’t get above average:( don’t know what I’m doing wrong:(
I guess this is a whinnnneee..
I was stuck in the low 90s for quite a while using this method and I really couldn’t figure out where the points were coming from. It seemed like hitting the top TNT was a crapshoot and the glass/wood debris between the gravity fields was moving way too slowly to break. But then I hit 53k on the first shot and the wooden square flew into the TNT on the second shot – 99k and mystery solved. It seems that scoring that high on the first shot clears away enough floating ice for a few of the blocks on the second shot to hit the bottom planet hard enough to break.
I got 95220 by aiming at the lollipops first which sends boulder into tnt and popcorn pops everywhere…love it…got two floating bubble pigs too and then shot second Terrence into the wood of bottom planet, just like Slim’s walkthrough describes.
I have tried both ways as well and I still get higher scores by doing it like the walkthrough. Just improved to 96210.
I got my highest score by clearing the bottom first, that way the debris that was blown upward fell all the way off the cliff to the bottom. There was actually quite a bit of debris still in mid fall, wheh the counter went off and tallied my score at 98k. Probably would have been 104-105 had it finished with the motion.
Got three stars with both methods. Was able to get a couple of thousand more points with Traneric’s.
Score: 101,940. Targeted the two sparkling lollipops and Terranced bounced up to blow the TNT in the ice, and the explosure took out the two bubble pigs. Used second Terrance to blow through the wood and some how popped enough kernals to blow debris up to hit the hidden TNT among the kernals.
Score–> 101250 I wish I was paying Attention as to how I did this.
Congrats on the gret score!! You might consider posting your scores on the leaderboards rather than on the walkthrough pages. That way, you would have an idea how your scores compare to other players here at ABN. As it says above, these pages should be used to discuss strategies.
107k. I probably played this level 30+ times before I got this score and I have no idea what made these 2 shots different… outlier scores are mostly a matter of grinding. For what it’s worth, I took out the top half of the screen first.
Welcome to the site, @burpie. By any chance, could you submit a screenshot to verify the score?
Pardon the double post, my original reply wasn’t threaded so you might miss it.
