(WR) It Came From The Desert "Full Game" | Speedrun [Amiga]

It Came From The Desert (1989) by Cinemaware | Speedrun It Came From The Desert "Any%" in 10m 48s Played by MilkToast 2nd greatest Amiga game of all time! I was grinding this one so much lately and tried to figure out the best strategy to win this. There is a faster route to win, but it was so difficult for me to pull it of so I decided to do the safer (and slower) route. Sure I did many minor mistakes which costs time and you can easily save up to 1-2 minutes, but I dont care at the moment, I am just glad I finished it in a decent time. My first strategy was to collect all the evidence so I was able to convince the major at day 6 that the Ants are real, but I never could jump into the queens nest, because the time gap was just to short for me and I was always eaten by the Ants. Then I discovered that you just have to wait until day 11 and the Ants will eat the Majors Car so he will call the general alarm without the evidence, but again I couldnt get into the nest. It seems that you need to battle the Ants first and win so the hole will stay open for a longer period of time. I decided then to wait until day 12, when the Ants will attack the Airport where I have to go anyway. I defeated them with the help of some tanks and then I headed to the Queens Nest successfully. In the Lair I was taking some wrong turns but I didnt mind I just wanted to bring this to an End. I am so relifed that the grind is finally over. Still an all time classic and a great game. Btw: Here is the route to collect the evidence the fastest way. Sleep until Day 3 and your Neighbor will give you an Ant leg. On Day 4 go to the SW crater and you get the cast, then go to the police to get the tape. On day 5 go to the Quarry and you get the fluid, then bring all 4 pieces to the Prof and sleep until day 6. Visit the Prof again and then go to the Major to convince him. He then will call for the general alarm. Played in WinUAE (WHDLoad) #Amiga #Speedrun #itcamefeomthedesert #A500Mini
