Quoted from Damien:I played TSPP for an hour straight last night. Finished Alien Invasion, started up all the other mini-wizard modes, and collected 4 super jackpots.
my main criticism on this game is that in order to achieve the final wizard mode you must complete all of the other modes and that is virtually impossible. I think if they made those mini wizard modes either slightly more attainable or easier to return to like multi balls in Lord of the Rings then this could have been one of the all-time greats for me.
Finishing the 4 mini wizard modes is actually the easy part. 5 SJP and AI are the hard parts.
Daredevil Mania is almost impossible to fail. Secret Stash isn't very tough. Stack a multiball with the other two and they are beatable as well on the first try.
Plus, you can start them a second time if you don't complete them. I disagree that it's hard to re-start mini wizard modes... with all of the EBs available in TSPP with stock settings, it's really not. Perhaps you aren't getting enough EBs.
It's one of the hardest wizard modes of all time, typically only achieved by the top players in the world. You aren't that far off, and yet you want to give up after only a few months. Practice more and use better strategies instead of giving up.
Don't blame the game, it has some of the best code of all time from a legendary coder. He made deep code for great players like himself... if you aren't up to the challenge, that's on you.
