This page contains notes for the game Elevator Action II.

High Score Comments#

The game goes through 4 steps sequentially to determine the player's high score comment. If the conditions in Step 1, Step 2, or Step 3 are fulfilled, the remaining steps are skipped.

Step 1
If the player used over six continues, the comment will be THANKS A LOT.

Step 2
If any of these conditions are fulfilled:

  • The player has at least 1,000 points and the thousands and hundreds digits match, e.g. 3,300
  • The player has at least 10,000 points and the ten-thousands, thousands, and hundreds digits match, e.g. 22,200
  • The player has over 100,000 points and the hundred-thousands, ten-thousands, thousands, and hundreds digits match, e.g. 777,700

Then the comment will be BINGO!

However, the lowest entry in the default high score list is 50,000, so the first condition can never be fulfilled.

Step 3
If the player's name is "AAA" or they didn't enter a name before time ran out, the comment will be WHO IS IT?

Trying to enter one of the two forbidden names, "SEX" and "KKK", will change the player's name to "AAA", which will also trigger this comment.

Step 4
After going through the special comment conditions, the game checks the player's score and how many times they continued, as can be seen in the table below. Comments in yellow are unique to that slot:

50,000 to 75,000

75,001 to 100,000

100,001 to 200,000

200,001 to 400,000

400,001 to 600,000

600,001 to 800,000

Over 800,000

If the player has less than 50,000 points and used less than 7 continues, the comment will be NO COMMENTS. But, as previously stated, the lowest entry in the default high score table is 50,000, so the player can never get this comment.
