Goparokko Guide

Written by pinkflamingonewsgirl

I’m not going to lie. This is definitely not a quick game. But it is fairly simple. I’ve never gotten a high score (if you see the high scores list, the highest scores are obscene), but I can get 1000 neopoints every time.

The point of the game is to put the colored blocks into 2x2 squares of the same color. See! Simple! (It is also possible to do 3x2 rectangles, which will, obviously, give you more points.) For each level of difficulty, you get a higher amount of points for each 2x2 you put together. Now that we have the point system and point of the game defined, it’s time to add the twist to the game. On the right hand side of the wall of blocks, there is a timer. If the timer hits the bottom of the game screen, your game is over and you have to send in your points (or not…that would be up to you). It starts out moving slowly and as you progress in levels, it moves quicker. Based on how many points you score from making squares (or rectangles) of the same color blocks, the little timer will add time to your round.

Special Blocks!

Dynamite Block

This block will be on a block of one of the colors you’re playing with. It has a little stick of dynamite in the middle. By making a 2x2 (or 3x2) with one of these guys, you’ll destroy all the blocks of that color on the screen! (You also get some number of bonus points, but I haven’t figured out the formula for this.) Note: Special Blocks will not be destroyed using the Dynamite Block.

Layered Block

This block has a main color, then a little square of another color. This will be easier to explain with an example: Say you have a green block with a little red square in the middle. You would use the green block first in a 2x2 (or 3x2) formation. When that square is destroyed, a red one will appear.

Locked Block

This block cannot rotate with the other blocks. You have to bring blocks of it’s color to it in order to destroy it.

WILD Block

This block can be used as any other color to make a 2x2 (or 3x2) formation.

Hourglass Block

This block, like the Dynamite Block is on one of the colors you’re playing with. It has a little hourglass in the middle of it. When you destroy this in a formation, it will greatly increase your time (really useful for when you hit the higher levels).

Multiply Block

This block will be a color you’re playing with and will have a little x2 or x4 in the lower right corner of the block. When this is destroyed in a formation, you will get the normal amount of points multiplied by the number indicated. For example: If you were to destroy a 2x2 square in Easy Mode and have a x4 Multiply Block, you will get 64 points!

The Strategy

OK. Time for strategy. The way I play is like this. I will focus on one color at a time and go in a round. That way, you’re building up blocks of the same color as you go. My order is Green, Red, Purple, Yellow, Blue, Orange. Blue and Orange get added as you progress in Easy Mode. In Hard Mode, you start out with all six colors.

Another thing I do is stock up on the Multiply Blocks. Why? Because When you have more than one being used, the game multiplies all the multipliers, then multiplies that number to your score! For example, say you have x2, x2, and x4 and a normal block in Easy Mode. It would multiply 2*2*4=16. Then it would multiply 16 (the product of the Multiply Blocks) times the normal score for a 2x2 square. You would get 256 points for that formation!

Now if you save up on Multiply Blocks and put a Dynamite Block as your fourth block, it’ll go through the same process, only multiply the normal score plus the bonus points. I would recommend doing this specifically. Try to fill the wall of blocks with as many blocks of the color you’re about to score big time with, then use the three Multiply Blocks and the Dynamite Block.

Final Question: How many points does it take to get 1000 neopoints? Well, the neopoint ratio has been fiddled with a lot lately, but it seems to be staying at .15 neopoints for each point you earn. That means you need to earn 6,667 points before you earn 1000 neopoints.

As I said, this game does take a while to earn those neopoints. My record time is 10 minutes. It’s all a matter of patience, strategy, and luck with the blocks that are provided. Have loads of fun!
