I've gotten over 900,000. But it did stop and slow down in a couple of key places. In a more honest setting I've gotten over 600,000.

I'd have to ice my hands if I got a legit score that high still! Cool!

500,000. I know of the two really small Zurg targets which yield a TON of points, but there has to be another big target somewhere else. I love this ride!

I've only gotten 200,000 once. It ususally takes me too long to get my blaster "sighted in" to get any of the sweet targets.

I had a poll on this a while ago I think let me find it.........

Here you go:
viewtopic.php?t=1263&highlight=buzz

It is actually a poll on which you prefer but hey who is counting.

On this last Dec trip to WDW I got 999,999 on one side of the spinner and somewhere in the 100,000's on the second player. I will post a pick when I get home. Definitely take a picture of your score for your own personal insanity.

I can personally vouch for those scores. And I think the second player was around 160,000...

At DL you can email yourself the pic of you and the high score, then post it here.

Dr. Ravenscroft, that is amazing. I'm so totally lousy at this game, but I still love it. I think I got about 200,000 once. So doctor, any hot tips?
Drop another coin in slot and I will tell you more.

in the WDW version, hit the red (or maybe it's yellow) robots left hand as you pass it It'll be on the left hand side of the car as you move/face forward. there's a target on the back side of the hand that after a couple of shots goes from like 100 points/shot to 10,000/shot or some insane amount like that.

Any DL tricks? because I don't think the ride will stop in that black tunnel every time I'm on it.

For DL:
I use the fin at the top to aim, and aim for either the triangles or diamonds depending what is most available.
Then, pay attention to when my gun lights up because that means I hit what I was aiming for and just keep on that target according to how I think it's moving.
And I just go trigger happy constantly shooting.
The only times I don't aim for the diamonds or triangles is when a target is lit up or neither is available.

Close JS. The robot is in the first large room, it is the orange one on the left (it's arms are moving up and down). On the robot's left hand on the side closest to it's body(refered to as the inside of the hand). If you hit it once you get 1,000 points, second time 1,000 points, but the third time you get 100,000 points. And if you keep hitting it you will keep getting 100,000 points each time after. So if you want to max out your score in that one room you would have to hit it 12 times, which is not an easy task for anyone, 2 to activate it and 10 to max out. I think I did it once out of 35 times riding it in Oct.

I can't remember how few.......just kidding JS, many times we rode it in Dec. But I did get a good score 999,999 and 113,400. Now there is a second Target down there that I know about it is more difficult. It is on the first Zurg you see. The target is on the bottom of the secret machine he is in. The target has the same rules as the first BUT you can only hit it from two angles, one when you first enter the room. The other when you leave it, the only problem with this is that the target resets itself between the two chances. That mean you have to hit the target 2 times when you enter the room to set it, then 2 times again when you are leaving the room.


For Astro Blasters I used to have a top score of 898,450 but in either February or July I got in the Millions, BUT Disney has deleted all of my e-mailed photo's. When you e-mail them to yourself they give you a code to see it whenever you want but they seem to have deleted them all, even from July which was not that long ago. Any who my score is correct it was somewhere in the low 1 mils. When looking for targets look for purple triangles and if they are lit up definitely hit that target you get twice the amount of points. I don't have a lot of hints for Blasters because of the fact that it has several different factors that determine your score.


OK here is one of the pictures I have. This was during the Oct. 2006 trip I don't remember which ride through it is but I do know it was at night.

So, here is the best score that I have a picture of. I've gotten better in the honest ways like I said in a previous post, but I didn't send a picture to myself. Honest....
