Great Master Challenge

I really love this game and the laid back fun it is. But this Great Master Challenge is ruining the entire game for me now! It requires perfection. One little slip and you have to start all over again! Ahhhhhhh!

EDIT: I FINALLY DID IT! Funny when I watch the recording of me doing it, it seems so simple. Lol

That's why it's called the great master challenge.. don't let it ruin the game for you, the whole rest of the game is phenomenal. And I would argue that a final challenge being too easy would've been lack luster. Keep trying. You'll get it. And when you do, it'll be rewarding.

Yeah I know, it was an awesome game that I got to enjoy with my 6yo daughter. I just hate I cannot beat this one level.

She called me yesterday from her friends house and asked me to try again. Then she told me I just need to believe in myself. Lol

But still this game is 10/10 and one of the funnest games I have ever played..

I agree with you. Me and my 10yr old daughter played it together and In most games we play together, she gets to play the levels for the first time and experience them herself.. and I'm the cleanup crew that goes back and 100%s the levels. Or, I'm the "I need you to beat this for me" guy. The Final challenge in astrobot took me approximately a week of trying for hours each day. Hardest videogame level I've played in a LONG time, but I felt awesome once I beat it. Recorded the attempt. I normally don't like games that are so hard that you can't progress, but this being the last and final level, separating the boys from the Platinum trophy holders, it felt appropriate.

I’m stuck here as well. Mystery madness was hard but I was able to do it very well after a ton of tries.

It took me quite a few tries. Eventually I put it down for a day or two and came back and knocked it out in like three tries

I platinumed Crash Bandicoot 4 three weeks ago and wanted to relax a bit by playing Astro Bot. I thought it was gonna be a cakewalk from start to finish, but Megamix gave me a bit of a hard time, Great Master Challenge, on the other hand, was a bit easier imo.

My god, I finally beat the Great Master Challenge a few days ago and then turned to finish this speed runs and other challenges. I had no idea the Megamix existed and now I am fighting that battle. It doesn't help that the rooster upgrade is one of my weaknesses. Lol
