I finally got past level 10 last night (60k points, my new high). Level 11 killed me fast.

I know there are folks who can get way further. How do you do it? It seems to get hard real fast.

Any tips for us mere mortals?
 
here are the basics.
Nibbler is easier if you are using a wico 4 way leaf joystick, otherwise the game outpaces what you can do with a microswitch.

Here is the deal on Nibbler- if you want to top 5 million within 2 weeks, memorize the patterns presented. but then it gets VERY VERY VERY VERY boring.

If you want to enjoy your experience, keep playing with NO HELP from existing players and make up your own patterns. :)

I opted the wrong way and learned patterns from Tom Asaki in 1983. I find the game not fun, but I never had to learn it on my own..... make sense?
