HELP on potc ship game!

[SharkMeal]

Okay
1: I can not get past level 3, I run into the stupid skull idol and bounce
off and a kraken appears under me and kills me every time!

2: It takes at least 35 minutes to load each time I want to retry and play it
again!

And you cannot play level 1 or 2 again until you beat level 3, which would be why I have traded for coded many times. All I really want is the middles, but I can't beat the blasted Kraken, no matter how many tips I have been given.

Maybe some of the Kraken-killing-experts will post some new tips for those of us stuck for eternity at level 3.

I agree every blasted time I hit an idol a kraken comes up beneath me while
I am immobile and can not move from bouncing off so it, well, kills me. Arg.

SharkMeal, how are you getting to the game? When I click my bookmark for it, for a while it said the game didn't exist anymore.. and based on your question today, I just tried again, but it took me to the formal "Travel" section of DISNEY.com.

Do you have a link? Please? I might be able to share some middle pieces if I can only get back to the game!

Ok,
when fighting the kraken you have to know how many shots it takes to kill him. I think it is 7, so shoot all 5 of your ammo at him, then shoot one more. Then make sure you don't make him disappear so go slow to make sure you can see him at all times, when your about to hit skull rock shoot him once, boom he is dead. Activate skull rock, go towards next one, repeat. Remember this numbers may be off, I think they are right, but im never right.


Good luck,
Dude


ETA: Duck, it is in the important links thread: http://disboards.com/showthread.php?t=1719041 .

Ok WWEDUDE, it worked, I hit the idol and killed the kraken, but guess what
happens next. I'm immobile for so long from hitting the idol that by the time
I get moving again a kraken is underneath my ship tearing it down. >_<

EDIT: I just did it again successfully, so I'm racing to the next idol and a kraken appears right in front
of me. ARG!

Get ready to move backwards once you hit it, or try to hit it with the side of your ship.

How do u get health?

 

[disneyhockeymad]

I hate that game too. In the end I've just learnt to cope with the slightly off joining of the front and back of the ships, who cares if there's a hole in the middle! Would be nice to fix it though!!

omg tell me about it! I have been wanting to complete a ship for the longest time lol. TY Shark for posting this bc the link was not working for the longest time!! I was so hoping they'd bring it back since it's pirates month. Of course I still can't beat that third level to save my life

It is easier to get the parts from the Bronze treasure chest in POTC on VMK lol
It is the same ship isn't it??

 

[aengus]

The trick is to try and almost side swipe it. remember dont take out the kraken until your about to hit the idol, then try to hit the idol as much at a side swipe as possible. This will allow you to recover in time and get moving again.

I dont remember there being middles, but several of the ship pieces are there.

Tips of the day:

After hundreds and hundreds of successful level 3 wins I have found a few strategies that will hopefully help you.

1) Go for the idols in this order. Top right, top left, bottom left, bottom right. This is basically a counter-clockwise order.

2) The first idol is the most difficult, if you successfully get that, the Kraken's difficulty goes down exponentially.

3) As soon as you near an idol and the kraken appears, pump five silver kisses into it. Slow down to speed 2 or speed 1 (using your S key). Love tap the idol, and then pump the final two silver kisses into the kraken.

4) Eat lots of cake. Sugar is the key to all my strategies...

 

[aengus]

wow I actually go clockwise, starting from the top right @_@

 

[whs_singingrose]

wow I actually go clockwise, starting from the top right @_@

that's what I do too! it's kinda the logical way to me.

 

[aengus]

soon we will find out if blue is the rebel or we are ROFL

 

[BlueHairedMonkey]

The reason I choose to go from the top right to the top left (counter-clockwise) is that after the first Kraken is taken out, it very rarely reappears in any place near me on my journey to the top left idol. There are also many more opportunities for you to place the Kraken between you and another object (which makes the Kraken disappear) on my route in my rebel opinion.

Fear me Kraken, fear me...
