Screwball Scramble 2- Ball Bearing Week 2

Hey gang, here we are on day 2's Ball Bearing Week episode and one that's more recent, Screwall Scramble level 2, which I completely compatible with the original game from over 40 years ago! This game, much like its predecessor is a real challenge!
Before anyone comments, I am aware of level 3 coming out/ being out and I've been forbidden from getting it before Christmas...so it seems I may be getting it for a present :D
happy gaming!
Luke

And to think level three was announced a month ago! It's called screwball scramble: Level up!

[@kidcardco]

Agreed! We need a Level 3!! And making the 2 games connect was pure Genius!!! Looking forward to tomorrow's video! Good stuff Luke!!

[@gameshowman1234]

They just released a new version called "Level Up".

"week 2" as if your board game experience is a zombie movie. Great camera work

[@voidepi]

your writing on the reveal at the end was INCREDIBLE. both my partner and i laughed so hard!

[@OriginalMasters]

For anyone who loved the original as a kid, this is a real treat!

[@ChicaLocaGB]

Screwball Scramble is a classic! Great to see an addition for modern children

[@Erik.Miller]

Thanks for sharing your double accomplishment: not only in creating yet another entertaining and informative video but also in beating the game, often while holding a camera in one hand or else having it perched right in the middle of your view! 😁 You know, I shouldnʼt be surprised if your own fandom effort in honoring the first Screwball Scramble proved an inspiration to Tomy in creating these sequels… Good job, looking forward to tomorrowʼs episode! 🤩⁠💻

Great, fun review. Can't wat to see one for Screwball Scramble Level Up

[@craigward7691]

Interesting that you highlight the corkscrew as being a tricky one. On the first copy of this game that I bought, the ratchet inside the twisty bit was so strong that it was pretty much impossible to complete that part, as the 'clickiness' of the ratchet would cause such vibrations along the screw that the ball would come off every single time. It was pretty heartbreaking given I was really looking forward to playing this! So I opened it up and filed down the ratchet just a fraction (possibly a bit too much!), making it super smooth and massively improving the experience. However, I ended up getting another copy of the game and on that one the ratchet was much less fierce, so the screw will happily rotate in a nice clicky way without the vibrations - which you can't help - destabilising the ball to such an extent as it comes off. Looks like you have a fierce one! I'd be interested in whether you can use the adapter to put your original version first and #2 second - I have a mid 80s copy and the adapter doesn't quite work going from that to this new one, though I'm pretty sure it's advertised as being able to go from the present version of the original to this one. From a timing perspective, the half pipe after the stairs is really quite annoying and the dish at the end that can send you backwards is rather frustrating as it seems more chance than skill! I used to be able to beat the original Screwball Scramble in about 10 seconds at my peak (!) but absolutely no chance on this one...

I feel like my life has come full circle. This is Johnny Reino btw

[@peachjackson3856]

I love/hate the cone. It looks so cool but the 50/50 luck chance is kinda cheap. Cant wait for you to do the level 3 upwards one! I find that the quality has gone downhill but it’s fun enough I suppose

[@jknifgijdfui]

Nah its consistent if you do the right amount of strength on the launcher

[@billytwix]

Don't forget about skull island adventure - combined w level up gets INSANE w 4 separate boards

[@killratty1670]

Level 3 I saw at game con in Birmingham this year it's virtical :)

[@VGC-cc4xt]

Beside Screwball Scramble 1-2,Kongman and Rock N Roll Maze,do you know other ball game?(without the variant/name changed)

[@manpig1991]

10/10!!!

[@masonsrandomworld8412]

Hold on, aren’t you the guy who does the voice over for the adverts and how to assemble videos by character options? Because you sound like it.

[@wolfgangwilcox2323]

There’s a Level 3 now!
