Game Dev Story: how to succeed on the App Store without even bothering to resize the graphics

ie: is it better than the spa one? bc i tried to get into that a few times unsuccessfully. the ui was a little too unfriendly

The spa one is my favorite. It took me a while to get into it but I love it.

Mega Mall is probably the one that is easiest to get into but it's also TOO easy.

The school one is harder than the the spa one, I'd argue.

By "favorite" I mean second favorite. Game Dev #1.

are these all the same? do they change at all during the game or is it just like game dev's endless same same?

Grand Prix Story actually has you watch your guys race around in the cars that you do the stat increases on. Other than that, same sorta dynamic. Different that Hot Springs or Academy, tho, and more like Game Dev, since you're working on improving a product over time that goes into competition, rather than laying out landscape tiles harmoniously.

Have quite a bit of fun with O Edo Towns, I must say. Moreso than grand Prix story.

grand prix is a buck atm, go get it

Epic Astro Story finally out for iPhone. I like it. Graphics have a weird scaling thing, tho.

what's the theme?

SPACE

more like game dev / grand prix, or more like spas / stupid building games?

You build shit, but there's not the heavy reliance on combos and co-location like the onsen/schooling ones. You bump up the stats and kit out your dudes to go hunt for monster/mob fights.
