iPhone games (also Ipod Tooch/iPad games too)

I suck at extending time with blue. It never seems to amount to anything.

The thing that seems to do nothing for me is the match time extension boost, but iirc it is a key aspect of djp strategy and he has like 1000 billion more points than me so I am obv doing it wrong.

I'm worried I'm burning out on this game, because up until now my scores have been improving as my understanding improves, and that's fun and interesting. But now I feel like my understanding is maxed out and it's just my clumsy fat fucking fingers that are limiting my scoring.

(although I'm still not entirely clear on how I activate a power for megazone, whenever I get in there it seems like everything pauses for a second or two, during which I can't feed anything to anyone, and by the time that's passed the monsters have vanished).

Right, having the yellow bro out there and the timing of feeding him a condo before mega is tricky.

Do other powers work during megazone though, or just yellow? Because I'm SURE I've gone in with green active without it having any effect...

just yellow AFAICT, although you might be able to have your first match with blue count as well (but it wouldn't matter unless you have clocks/pigs/multipliers in your match)

btw my go-to boosts are peace, slow chain and double pink; I only used match extension early on

the easy grindy way to stockpile money is to just play a bunch of games using peace only

polymer is free right now. i've been meaning to get it. only a few games in its nice feeling how i was totally helpless the first few and am gradually developing the ability to actually plan ahead and execute strategies, etc.

want to stress again how much fun i'm having with sword and poker. It's a match 3 game with a twist: instead of jewels it's cards and you're matching for pairs, three of a kind, flush, straights, full house, etc. add a persistent RPG dungeoncrawl shell with level up weapon, health, shield and magic and this shit is golden. highly recommended; I need to get the sequel.

Also just picked up "heavy mach: defense" which looks interesting

Year walk is frustrating. Memorising sequences and revisiting old areas of the map to see if anything's changed are the dudliest of dud game mechanics.

Candy Crush all day (until I run out of lives, anyway)

Loving Polymer!

oh forks I went through a MASSIVE Sword and Poker phase, that game is a TIME SINK

it is man, it is
i'm at b20, can i assume this goes on forever?
you know there's a sequel right?

Oh yes I know there's a sequel

Fuck why did I download Infinity Blade

Fuck why did I download Infinity Blade

Get out while you can

lol, u thought sword and poker was a timesink

IB is totally a grind, but it's a fun grind with a good narrative gimmick. IB 2 is even better

i finished ib in like 2 hrs

no autographs please

define "finished"

he's talking about his irritable bowel

downloading this now, temple run clone be damned

it's okay for two bucks

i killed the last guy and if there was more to do i don't want to hear about it

You're supposed to kill him over and over and over

IB is so boring and yet I find myself playing it when I have two or three minutes. That's why Polymer is so great, quick load and makes me think of Katamari.

i know this demolishes any GAMER CRED i have but the game for me that is my timesuck is pvzombies YES AGAIN i wish i knew why

cuz they just put it out for free

i know cuz it happened to me :(

hopefully this means new one soon?

that'd be cool

looks like it, though this article is pretty old.

i have hit the level cap on the simpsons game o_O

raising a kid should be no prob, then

7268th, 3.8 billion in mamc

I up to 3.1 b I believe. Feel lke it's just a matter of time before I luck in to a huge score.

11.88bn and yeah, it felt like pure luck really, not even sure how it happened.

grabbed knights of pen and paper while it was free. its a nice throwback rpg.

^let me know how that is, i was looking at it on the store the other day

There is no life, only Candy Crush Saga.

that game is such bullshit man

^this
pen and paper is worth your time until it becomes a horrible grind. you should be able to get at least two or three hours of fun from it. Maybe more. Worth two bucks easy.

What's bullshit about it? It's fun.

It's basically just Bejeweled but I like the mechanics of dealing with pieces that have goo on them or are roped up. I like how the special pieces affect the game board.

I dunno 225 tries on level 33 took the wind out of my sails

then my wife beat the level! & the game wanted 99 cents to keep playing! was like, why should I pay you to keep hitting myself over the head?

I beat the first 50 levels and am working on three starring all of them

what bullshit about it is that it's basic game mechanics that can only be played proper past a certain point by paying for the answer

I don't pay for anything except more levels.

The 5 lives per 2h30 has been helpful in curbing obsessive tendencies because extortionate or not, the game owns your soul.

Three starred up to level 80 besides 77 which is really testing my patience. Still not comfortable with the idea of buying consumable extras on such games.
