I can’t get past the first room of level 2 with my 3 birds.

Here’s what’s waiting for you in the final room of today’s Bomb Blast…IF you can get to the final room with any birds left.

And this result was the best I could do.

Good luck, I’m out.

It’s only political if you choose to make it so. You are of course absolutely free to ignore it.

No joy for me today. A 4-4-5. It’s hard to make it to the final room with any birds left and if you do, prepare to spend some gems. There are two ledges that he can camp out on.

I make no attempt to “aim” birds at KP with those trampolines, unless you’ve got clearance to drop an egg or silver on it. Usually I see if there’s any debris that can be caused to bounce around and then just fire birds into the mix and hope they bump into him often enough. If not, bye-bye.

Matilda Mayhem was a 4-4-5. Pretty easy if you get through the early rooms okay. I managed to strike the first room on level 3 using bomb. Only 2 birds were really needed for the KP room – you just need to knock him over to the flower on the lower right, then something with a little oomph to break up the structure.

KPP wasn’t too bad. With only…[Read more]

I finished 200 points short of Emerald II, the closest I have come. My scores have improved since I started watching some of the MEBC videos — I can never get the same fabulous results they do but they are at least better than they were.

The ability to win the extra coins kept me playing even though I knew I wasn’t going to hit the next…[Read more]

@arjrick, if you see this KP room again, remember to aim matilda or silver to the side of the KP, not straight on, so you will set off the TNT box, which should knock him off the ledge.

Apologies if that’s exactly what you did. It took me a while to figure that one out and didn’t want to assume.

Chuck’s DC was a pretty easy 4-4-5 for me. I’ve seen this screen before and like to use silver or matilda to go over the top to dislodge KP and he (usually) falls straight through. Stella might work too if it would lift him up and to the right.

KPP looked like a disaster with a major gem-eater on level 1. But the KP is actually pretty fragile and…[Read more]

Very interesting. The final room was the same for me as well, but obviously not the preceding ones.

@arjrick, as you’re learning, it’s not just about the # of rooms that determine difficulty. They can do a lot to change the difficulty level by adding flame throwers, magicians, micro pigs, and making the structures stronger. Back in the good old…[Read more]

@apprentice, I don’t think there’s any question that the challenges increase in difficulty the more accomplished you are, but I have no idea what the criteria are. I do know that when I first started playing, the DC/KPP were just about the same difficulty they are now (based on how often I win), and that was when I had only a few hats, low…[Read more]

I think you may be putting yourself at a disadvantage by not using an “extra” bird. I haven’t noticed any difference in the number of rooms.

Same one that I had. Nothing too tricky as long as you have a few birds to use in the final room to push KP off the ledges. Bomb was helpful to clear the debris.

KPP was a disaster for me. Indestructible micro pigs scattered everywhere. Birds that just bounced off the structures. Never even made it to the final room.

Yeah, the right side was the way to go on DC, since he left side doesn’t have a trampoline to help move him off the ledge. Of course you needed a bird or two to clear the debris. It helps that you have the fans pushing things down.

Sunday DC was a pretty straightforward 3-3-4. Nothing too tricky.

KPP on the other hand consumed too many birds in the early rooms of the final level. I had almost nothing to attack with except gems and luck. Didn’t get the luck and didn’t waste the gems.

In case anybody wants to compare Fire Power levels with difficulty levels, my FP is currently 750. Star rank is 139 (though I have no idea what that means or what effect it has).

For Saturday, I had an easy 2-3-4 DC. It’s a one-shot KP room if you have Stella.

KPP was also pretty easy, but I had to spend gems because of some really bad shots…[Read more]

Thursday’s DC is an easy 2-3-4. Stella is useful. Get it while you can.

KPP is also very easy. UNTIL the final gem-eating room. No thanks.

You were smarter than I. Three attempts. At least I only wasted time, not gems.

I haven’t noticed a correlation. Maybe it’s payback for relatively easy DCs over the weekend.

Tuesday’s DC is a bit friendlier.
