For me, I need some time to master the arrow-controls and navigate the plane to my command. Once you get the hang of it, it is pretty thrilling to watch your tiny airplane performing out-of-this-world stunts.

Stunt Pilot 2 Ready To Take Off

In my rather vast experience of playing games, I’ve found that sitting at a desk and using a mouse is the best way for me to play a casual game requiring any skill past what an earthworm might possess in its pinky -if worms had pinkies…and hands and arms for that matter.

I blame my dismal performance on Hardboiled on the fact that I was sitting on the living room floor with my laptop on my legs and my two year old in between me and said laptop.  The furthest I was able to get was to where you have to “make grey” [You'll understand when/if you get that far - hint: open the door.]

I played this stupid game time after time after time and kept going back for more punishment fun.

By the time I finally called it quits, Cara [the two year old] and I were bopping our heads in time to the music and cheering each time “we” passed a level.  My ultimate suggestion to you with this game is to take the time to read the instructions.  Trust me.  Half the times that I “died” were caused by me plowing into a mini-game without really knowing what I was supposed to do.  In those instances, instructions REALLY were for losers – me!

Give Hardboiled a try but don’t say that I didn’t warn you when you come up for air in about an hour.
