When you first see the game you will see this - that is the Bonus Round and that will be described below in the bonus round section. Pay into game to start the game.

When the game starts a grid of 4x4 (16 numbers) will appear.
Like EVERY game in Second Life, your goal is to match the numbers.

Number - 200 points
Row - 1000 points
Full clear - 5000 points
Gold Pattern - 1500 points

However, in this game there is something most games do not have and that is what is called a "nudge" system.

Some of the rounds give what is called a "nudge". This means you can change the numbers on the spinner row either one less or one more. However, there is a secret to this (explained on Stillwater's Tips on the bottom)

Nudges do the following:
Move one number back one number - Click blue arrow going down. (e.g. 8 -> 7)
Move one number up one number - Click blue arrow going up. (e.g. 41 -> 42)

By nudging it will allow you to mark the number.

Somewhere on the 4x4 grid is a bar with a x2. This doubles all your scores to the following values:
Number - 400 points
Row - 2000 points
Full clear -10000 points
Gold Pattern - 3000 points

During your game you will encounter sometimes 3 bars stacked on top of each other. On the top are 4 squares, which tell you how many of the 3 bars bonuses you collect.

Each 3 bar bonus gives you 500 points. (With x2 1,000 points)
Collect 4 of them to receive a bonus 5,000 points.
(With x2 it will be worth 10,000 points.)

After 10 rounds pass you will enter the bonus round.
Here 9 ? Spaces are shown.
Your goal is to attain the best possible score with the correct order of bonuses.
The bonuses are:
500 points
1000 points
2000 points
5000 points
+10% Score
+20% Score

However, there are also 3 "Game Over" spaces, which end the game and pay if you beat the target score.

Stillwater's Tips:
- When you are faced with a nudge session, keep in mind that numbers will overlap. What this means is that if you think you will not get a certain number, you will. For example, say you have 3 nudges and the number you need is 2. If the number on the spinner is 11, click the "up arrow" 3 times. It will go to 12, then 1 then 2. The same applies for nudging downward as well.

- 4 3 Bar bonuses tend to be common - sometimes up to 2 times per game to receive the bonus.

- At the bonus round, if you get the +10% and +20% score after getting points, it applies to what your current score is, and not at the end of the game. That means if you get the +5,000 points space, and then the +20%, it will calculate and increase your score by 20% after you get the 5,000 points added to your current score.

That concludes this guide to Barz.
Hope you have fun and good luck :)
