I just got a trophy for playing 125,000 cards in Fairway Solitaire. I have a problem.
― EZ Snappin, Wednesday, 17 April 2013 05:30 (eleven years ago) link
i don't wanna know how long it took you to get it because i feel a similar trophy might be coming my way soon. worst part being that i keep getting fed up wiith this game yet return to it all the time because i need my damn 3 stars & cps for achieving the challenges

Props to Dan for "ICE CUBE'S 401K" barbershopOh and btw I make like $400 in the time it takes me to peruse your truly tiny tower
Also I noticed your elevator upgrade. See you again after 499 bux. I promise it's worth it though for real. The lightspeed is no shit

I was inordinately proud of "ICE CUBE'S 401K"
also inordinately proud of "CARPENTIER" which is just a stupid pun on the baroque composer Charpentier (which is "Carpenter" in French so I didn't even need to pun it)

This story irks me. Congrats to these guys for ripping off Game Dev Story, charging eight bucks for it, and then finding a way to make the whole thing about themselves. The fact that they cracked their own game makes it hard to sympathize with them. Granted, I've never stolen a game and pay for iOS titles all the time, so maybe it's not about people like me, but this shit is kinda blowing up. It's a good troll job I guess.

I am obsessed with getting to 100 floors in Tiny Tower. Currently at 54 (technically 55 but top floor isn't done yet)
Tombot I'm gonna have the light speed elevator by end of next week, I think

I have noticed your unseemly accrual of bux Dan Lightspeed was the only logical explanation - aim high but be forewarned, after that, it is all paint, cosplay and HAVING ALL OF THE FLOORS AND ALL OF THE STARS and well mostly having nothing better to do while commuting or waiting on meetings to begin/ end

anyone played reiner knizia's ra & tiger&euphrates? the price of both of those dropped to less than a buck on the app store so i'm thinking of getting one or both.
― Jibe, Thursday, 16 May 2013 05:41 (ten years ago) link
T&E is my favorite of the two but both would be worth getting. The AI isn't too difficult to beat but it's still fun. There's also online and pass and play, I haven't tried online though. Maybe I can convince someone to get it to play with me since it's on sale. I see Le Havre is also a dollar, I think I'm going to get it.
― o_o, Thursday, 16 May 2013 06:27 (ten years ago) link
i posted about this on the board game geek thread and yeah noticed le havre is cheap too. i've never played any of these, i think i'll get all three, it's only a buck after all. is there any way to track how much you've spent on the app store btw? cos i feel that my constant "it's only a buck after all" might add up to a quite a bit.

Table Top Racing is also free right now. Apparently developed by ex-wipeout guys, it has a pretty simple control scheme that works well for iOS... I've only played the first few tracks, but it seems like one of the better racing experiences I've had on the device...

robot unicorn 2 is a lot less fun now that i've maxed out to level 22.

table top racing is not awful, but i left them a neg review for using "oriental" music on the chinese take away level.
― caek, Monday, 20 May 2013 23:50 (ten years ago) link
also it seems to do that infuriating thing where they try to make it more 'exciting' by making it easy to catch up when you're behind, and difficult to build up a lead when you're ahead. 90s game design. it's more exciting like that if you think dice is an exciting game.

it's not as puzzly as Clash of Heroes, but it's nicely twitchy and the upgrades jack up the game up well. The sounds are crazily bleepy and bloopy by then in a classic arcade way
