Search the Neopian Times

In Raiders of Maraqua, you play as a Koi named Karpoh, searching for treasure and trying to destroy the enemies lurking in the ruins of Old Maraqua. Score 800 points and you’ll earn yourself a new avatar, and maybe even a shiny trophy! I played this game as a teenager and found myself to be very good at it; after a long hiatus, I rediscovered Neopets, and thought I’d give one of my favourite games a try. Even after all this time, I could still remember all the patterns and tricks of the trade so I figured it would be a nice idea to share these with others rather than trying to hog the gold trophy spot each month! Movable objects: Light blue bubbles: can be moved in any direction and will stop when hitting another object. They can be popped when pushed against any object directly next to it (including the walls). Dark blue bubbles: Similar characteristics to the light blue bubbles but they can only be popped by rocks. Rocks: will destroy all bubbles in their path, they can be stopped by treasure, the walls and other rocks. Please note if a bubble is directly next to the rock in the direction you are trying to push it, the rock won’t move. Large Treasure: will be stopped by any other object. These cannot be destroyed. Other items: Extra life: a red cross which may randomly appear during any level Small gold piece: awards 5 points and will disappear as you swim over it Bonus bubble: When an enemy is destroyed, a bubble will sometimes float upwards from the bottom of the screen. They are slightly transparent so keep an eye out as they can be a little hard to see...
