Number Munchers - Cut Scenes

Cut Scenes

As in the other games in the series, a player is awarded with a cut scene (reminiscent of those in Pac-Man and similar arcade games) after every third level; in this game, these are dubbed as "Great Moments in Muncher History". While these scenes are numbered (Act 1, Act 2, etc.), the order they appear in varies from game to game. Once all six have been shown, they begin to repeat themselves (starting with the scene after Level 21). The six scenes are as follows:

  • A Muncher is chased by a Reggie across the screen twice, then the Muncher gets in an old-timey automobile, outruns the Troggle, and the Troggle falls down and gives up.
  • Two Munchers reenact the story of William Tell.
  • A Muncher races a Bashful up a mountain, plants his flag, and sings a song.
  • A Muncher prank-calls a Smartie and sings the universal taunting melody commonly associated in the United States with lyrics including "Nanny nanny boo boo", "pitcher's got a big butt", etc.
  • A Muncher beats two Troggles in a beauty contest.
    • Later releases of the game replaced this cut scene with one in which a Muncher stumbles through his house in the dark and then turns on the light, only to discover that he has broken all of his furniture.
  • A Muncher carves his own image into Mount Rushmore.

Famous quotes containing the words cut and/or scenes:

    To assert in any case that a man must be absolutely cut off from society because he is absolutely evil amounts to saying that society is absolutely good, and no-one in his right mind will believe this today.
    Albert Camus (1913–1960)

    One reason writers write is out of revenge. Life hurts; certain ideas and experiences hurt; one wants to clarify, to set out illuminations, to replay the old bad scenes and get the Treppenworte said—the words one didn’t have the strength or ripeness to say when those words were necessary for one’s dignity or survival.
    Cynthia Ozick (b. 1928)
