Mastery #12, second NES mastery. Going for the high scores was actually fun; the trap mechanics finally clicked

⭐Mastered - don't get MARV'D!
YOZORA713 23 Dec 2024 21:07
besides the controls and the music being annoying, this was a fun little game
Griffin 24 Dec 2024 04:30
Added 2 leaderboards for best score and time without freezing the robbers. They seem to work fine but if anyone finds any issues with them then send me message.

Your leaderboard score will may be slightly off from the score shown on the results screen because the game has a bug where the timer will continue while on the game over screen.

Mastered!
The controls can be rather awkward to maneuver but It's an interesting game concept for the NES
It was surprisingly fun
alvayuso 26 Dec 2024 21:40
Mastered #4. This has been an easy and fun one. I highly recommend learning how to perform the stuck thief glitch (https://youtu.be/sehhU-dIk3Q?si=7mDFuiz9Sd-NSCrR), it turns the game and the set from horrible RNG to fun little game. Happy Christmas!
GamingDork2000 28 Dec 2024 05:13
Mastered! As mentioned by alvayuso, the stuck thief glitch is extremely useful. RNG isn't very friendly and 20 mins feels a bit much personally. Regardless idk if anyone will have too many issues beating or mastering this.
KIRBOLL 30 Dec 2024 17:56
Yayyyy!! Finally Mastered, maybe one of the last masterings of the year (for me)

Honestly, when i knew abt the stuck thief glitch, the game became really easy, it implied some rng to stuck both of them, but after that, completing the game became a joke, the only one which was hard, was the 100.000 points cheevo, i had to harrass the remaining thief constantly for like almost 14 minutes, but after that, i finally ended my labour.

and honestly... i didn't liked the game, i mean, if i need a glitch to survive for 20 minutes (before i knew about the glitch i only survived 5 minutes and a half) Then i can't say it's a good game, sorry but it's poop

Came back to say that this set and game was a lot more enjoyable than what i expected it to be

Mastered #5 juego con controles raros o no muy precisos, una vez agarras la mano no cuesta tanto, haciendo un bug lo haces más rápido.

Mastery #11 and my Play This Set for the Christmas Event: The glitch makes this a fairly easy game to finish, since once you get set up you can just leave the game running on frameskip to get the 20 minutes. You do have to actually play the game to get 100% though, the roughest actually being the Harry achievement since normally he's the first one you glitch out, and thus you'll likely farm Marv for the points achieve, forcing you to play with both active to try and knock Marv out 10 times. For the points achieve, glitch out Marv, then set up a conga line of traps in the basement. Make sure to knock down the chandeliers and grab them to give yourself time to get more traps from the rest of the house. Traps break! So you will need to restock sometime during your high score run. (If you want to see how to set up the glitch, check out the cheevo for the 20 minute time)

Overall, this game was terrible when it came out, and I don't know how anyone can legit finish it without glitching at least one bandit. The fact that traps break after a few uses mean that you can't set up trap-traps for them, so you have to hope the RNG of them running around just keeps them dumb for long enough to get the 20 minutes. If you want a quick Mastery, this game only took me an hour or so.

Bethesda at its best.
Flareon 6 Jan 2025 13:43
Made by Bethesda??

😱
Makil 6 Jan 2025 15:31
I was just as shocked as you are. Who would have thought they were once capable of making such a good game?
EgorStasiv 7 Jan 2025 05:26
For 20 minutes and others, use glitch + emulator acceleration, so as not to wait 20 minutes of real time)

Mastery #33

Mastered for RetroAchievemas. The NES version is a bit different from the Genesis one. You're only protecting your own house this time and are moving between 3-4 screens of action to avoid the wet bandits. This one's a bit harder to get due to how "hiding" works, and the fact that the wet bandits increase in speed as the game goes on so they can get quite fast. Weapons are limited so you need to be smart about using the hiding feature as well as avoiding being noticed so they aren't chasing you all the time (especially when both are chasing you simultaneously, it can use up a lot of traps). It took me several hours before I could master it (by that, I mean beating the game, which is essentially what the set consists of).
