iPhone games (also Ipod Tooch/iPad games too)

you know what, the game isn't too fiddly, it takes like five minutes to set up and then you're off! i prefer it IRL because you don't have to wait for people to make their moves, plus playing with friends is fun.

it's a great game. a really... "pure" game, if that makes any sense. there's not that much randomness. and the basic game mechanic is quite innovative and neat.

and i bought my copy for $30!

anyway, i recommend both the board game and the ipad version. though i worry that if you haven't played the board game, the ipad version might be hard to approach.

are we allowed to talk about other board games here or should i take it to the other thread?

I bought Puerto Rico on the ipad a long time ago but still haven't played; gonna give it a try!

i recommend giving this podcast a listen if you're interested in puerto rico

Anyone playing Curiosity? I am stuck at the "joining" screen

Not just me then. Good work molyneux! There were interviews a few weeks ago where he's was saying "imagine a billion people all playing the same game at once" at the same time he was saying "actually if 500,000 people sign up on day one we're screwed". So here we are on day one and it goes "hey, you the 34,531st player.....connection error".

ugh now I have the punch quest "101% punch accuracy" quest. I've gotten 100%, how does one get 101%?

certain skills allow you to hit more than one monster with one punch

though i'm not sure you need to use them, i think with some timing you can hit two zombies at once

(Connected. Bored within 90 seconds. Cool experiment bro).

I did fuck-all for the past four hours except for continual rounds of Plague, Inc. Finally killed off the earth with a super-disease!

that game is NOT FUN

i find that game kind of frustrating tbh

Puzzle Craft is free right now

so yeah, punch quest -- still pretty awesome but I'm starting to feel like I've exhausted it -- have all the special moves, all the power skills, all the upgrades, got an "ultra hat" (which doesn't actually do anything, although I guess there are hats that give you an extra power skill), and the quests are repeating themselves. Kind of which there was a little more to this.

nah, it's just like Jetpack Joyride or any number of endless runners, just more charming and with tighter controls. but that is far from damning praise IMO

also kind of hit a wall with skill level - can't really get much beyond level 15 and I THINK I've seen all the enemies (blue bats, the purple cowskull-headed thingies that shoot electricity balls, the flaming skeletons, etc.)

I've been playing DragonIsland, which is sort of like...well, there's no getting around it, I'm basically playing budget Pokemon

at least you admitted it

QatQi
go get this NOW
it's awesome

haha, i just downloaded it now without even considering it as an option that i might refuse

but hey it's free!

totally great, let me know what you think
scrabble with exploration

unfortunately, it comes at a time in my life when i was looking for something to play besides scrabble!

but yeah, it's fun!

like the robust stats, too

QatQi is dooooooope

well that was all the prompting I needed

yup, pretty cool stuff. good rec

QatQi would be fun if it didn't have some stupid fucking bug that kept the menu from displaying properly and letting me play different levels

u guys should check out my friend's awesome new camera app (not a game) called kitcam, it basically does everything you'd want a photo/video app to do in one app with a nice interface.

Sure, why the fuck not? Bought it, spreading the small business Saturday wealth. Will report back.

Seems cool, but extra buy in for bonus lenses/film stock/frames in a new paid app is kind of lame.

Guess who got #1 in the state of New Jersey on a Persnickety level of QatQi...

Wish it had rankings for the entire tri-state area.

I'm #1 in the country. I'm also the only person in that country playing QatQi apparently.

Burrito bison is worth it if it is still free

one of my first pops at it i got 1st place out of 50ish Quebeckers! it's the little victories

Seems cool, but extra buy in for bonus lenses/film stock/frames in a new paid app is kind of lame.

i feel u but it does come with a shitload already—if those werent even there i would be satisfied

yeah thats fair, theres always just that sting of oh hey look at my new app full of more shit to buy

let me be fair, its not like this is a problem unique to those dudes obv.

i fully concur that IAPs are the worst things ever

it is a great camera app though! really smart interface

:D

proud of my bro.

so much you can do in it too

omg, jet set radio

What? Can't imagine that feeling half as good without a proper controller. Maybe that is a truism one could say about any iPhone port tho.

Qatqi is annoying btw.

Factoid! Not truism!

But it's one that especially applies to 10-year-old games that needed a camera control stick (especially JSR!)

god of blades well worth a buck; surprisingly deep backstory for an endless runner!
recommended for folks what liked punchquest and also like edgar rice burroughs novels

slutsky's pal's cam app is really good; and it's an editor's choice rn so is showing up on the 'front page' of the app store
