Hint: "It's not a race against time"

Gamers stop revving your engines for a minute and take some time to size up your opponents. That's the advice I've been given by the makers of the highly addictive Auris City game.

This week's competition scores are just as competitive as last week's Drive-In game with the fastest gameplay session currently sitting at 19 sec! I'm glad to see that there's a few ladies like Lisa Williams representing on the leaderboard too, you go girls!

The weekend is just around the corner and that signals the last few days to get your fingers to the pedal and start wracking up some points in Auris City. This week's Music Store competitions ends on Sunday night. On that note here is the nifty hint that I happened to squeeze out of one of the game's developers and he says, "Instead of trying to get above the rest, gamers at Auris City need to suss out their competition first, and take their time to play because the person who's in lead isn't the one to beat, it's you!"

Now 'Mr. Auris City developer', I'm not so sure what that's supposed to mean, but if you consider that it's not a racing game then once you've got top spot, all you would have to do is sit back and wait until someone else gets an even lower score than yours, and then try to topple them - otherwise you'd, technically, just be beating your lowest score. So there could be some truth to what 'he who must not be named' had to say, and I'm not talking about Voldemort here :-)

Anyway if any of you have further hints, please send them on to editor@aurisblog.co.za or just use the Comments field on the blog.

I've also tried the game many times this week and a helpful hint from me is to try and be as quick as you can in putting your order of music-related stuff together, that way you don't waste time getting around the rest of the game.

Good Luck!
