easy way of doing this challenge without auto is simple
just go on easy level,u dont have to find so many crystals and quite quick to complete O0

This game is very easy to win without using an auto. Play on easy and don't forget that you can use the double mouse click on the numbers next to the crystals. Practice now and you should have it down pat by Wed. O0

ok, I guess I am doing something wrong there or I dont understand waht you are doing? I can not get that double click to work for me. but then again, nothing is working for me lately. lol however, this is not a hard game for me beacuse I use to play it when it was a standard part of windoze 3.0 O0 ... After you get use to the game, it goes fast. am I tell my age yet? >:D

I used to play the windows version too but I could never win, even on the easiest level. ( my son used to win all the time & rub it in) lol But I've been able to win a few on pogo's version on easy & w/o an auto. Can't win on the other levels tho playing by hand (probably could if I'd take the time) but the auto for this game is terrific!! O0

First off you click on a square to uncover something. If your lucky, you will open up some of the board. Then look for a 1 with a crystal next to it. Click on that 1 holding down both mouse buttons. The number one (1) is best to do this with, altho it can be done with other numbers. Meep mentions this in his interview on what's new at pogo.

I don't know if this will work if your using a Mac.

pogohatesme · November 29, 2005, 04:02:34 AM

I'm using Windows XP and everytime I "double click" nothing happens...the number I'm double clicking kinda bounces up and down lol but nothing happens......I've tired it on numbers that have about half the blocks cleared around it and I've tried it with a number in the middle that has all the blocks still around it.

The only thing Meep says is this:

In this game, you have to use the "Right-Mouse" (or "Cntrl-Click" on Mac) button to mark the spaces you think contain crystals. Some players have never used that button before in a Pogo game. If you only use the "Left-Mouse" button, you won't be able to identify the crystals and win the game.
Clear out the corner spaces first. Corner spaces surrounded by "ones" always contain a crystal - "Right-Click" them.

I don't think that's what your describing when you talk about "double clicking though" is it?

I don't double click but rather "right click" to get the crystals without exploding.

pogohatesme · November 29, 2005, 04:11:08 AM

That's what I do also lol I'm just trying to find out if that's what these guys are calling "double clicking"

*Angel* · November 29, 2005, 04:12:24 AM

LOL Yeh double clicking doesn't work for me either. I just tried. I also have Windows XP.

Country Lady · November 29, 2005, 04:18:44 AM

Double click is putting your cursor over a number and pressing both buttons at the same time. Sorry if I didn't explain it better the first time.
Try doing that over a number one(1) that is next to a crystal.

pogohatesme · November 29, 2005, 04:25:08 AM

lol as I posted earlier...that's what I'm doing and nothing is happing but the number is sort of bouncing up and down. I've tried it with a number that has about half the blocks around it exposed and again with a number in the middle of the puzzle that still has all the blocks around it.

shasta · November 29, 2005, 04:52:03 AM

What exactly is the double clicking suppose to do?

Umm, when you are clicking both mouse buttons over the number 1, do you have the crystal next to the 1 exposed? Let me give an example of what I mean. Start of clicking in the corner. A bunch of squares usually clear out. You will have a 1 that you know has a crystal right there beside it. Right click over that square to reveal the crystal. AFTER the crystal is revealed, hover over the 1 and click the left and right mouse buttons at the same time. Any other squares touching the number one that can not contain a crystal will be cleared away. If you are lucky a bunch will clear out. This does work. It just takes some time and practice. Good luck and happy hunting!

You are very welcome Shasta. I have seen people telling people to do the "double click" and confusing them. And also not being clear that the crystal has to be uncovered before it works. I keep trying to clear that up. I hope the information helps others. It really does speed the game up, and with next weeks challange that is a plus for sure.
