Renzo's Strength Game

I've got an odd question about this little carnival game.

If I mess up and the top marker is right on the edge of red/green on the left, should I try to get the bottom one dead center? Or is it better try to match where the first one landed? I honestly can't figure it out.

Off to get more caffeine before I play it again.....................................

 

I tried that game several times and did not do well. I don't know if it's my internet connection, age, or slow reflexes. Personally, I think it's best to aim for stopping in the green area each time. After each round, the sliders go faster and I was never able to get it to stop in the green except on the first try. Subsequent ones always slid to the yellow or red even when I tried to time it so it would stop in the green.

I gave up on all games except the treasure chests. Timing is off for me in the other games. Trying to move my mouse to pop a balloon or whack a mole does not go well.

I hope others are having better results than I. Good luck!

 

this is my favorite game..the only one i play as i can get minimum 15 coins per go. my highest score is 30,000..3 perfect 10's but that has taken a long time to perfect.

my advise:
the first bar on the bottom let it go all the way to the end (right) then turn back then stop it just before dead centre.
then the second (top bar) goes and do exactly the same...let it go all the way, turn round then get it just before dead centre.
this is all well and good for the first and second hits but the third time is so fast its not the way to go.
what i do on the third attempt is start counting when i see the pointer go over the centre 1,2,3etc and you get a routine where just before you say the next number hit the mouse and if your reactions are quick, you should stop it around the centre and get a high score. it may take counting to 10+...dont rush it just get in a rhythm then go when your are comfortable...as there's no time limit on when you have to hit the hammer. then repeat for the top swing bar.
lets not forget quick reflexes with the hand on the mouse is a must. i've perfected a way to hold the mouse almost clicking the button but not ...and also check your mouse settings and adjust the click and pointer settings for a faster reaction from your mouse (these settings will be in the control panel if you're running windows).
the secret is take your time, dont rush or panic, you have all the time in the world.

good luck to all...and remember...have fun at the fair!

 

This is the only game I do. Like upa70 I count but I use a manual mouse so I hold it down over the button until the pointer is where I want it and let go. My hand is too jittery to actually press it and let go at the same time. I am usually happy to get 9 with the occasional 15. If I get less then I give up and wait till my hands (2 broken wrists just before Christmas) decide to co-operate with my brain.

 

I tried last night and did better, but guess age/dexterity does factor in as my hand and wrist were starting to hurt rather a lot by the time I used the last ticket. I realized moderation is key for me, and it is not good to put too much stress on my aging joints I shall keep trying and not worry about it...just enjoy whatever I manage to do. Thanks for the helpful tips upa70 and farmerumf. I love the Forum feedback!

 

This game is more difficult every time Renzo is back in town !

2-3 years a go, I get 20 every 4/5 times (80%), last time about 40% and now only 20%...

Gone years 15 is BAD, now it is GOOD !

And it dosn´t help that I have PC and wire-mouse and Win7 and no updates anymore to Win7... SAA-AAA-AAAD !

Have to try only get SG and SSG eery time, not even mentioned that Piccolo and 900 points...
