It's weird. There's two options. Public or invite only. Invite only means I can only invite people from my friendslist and like only some of them?
I'll make it public and let's see if how that works. Also you should probably tell me your characters name I guess.

As someone still building teams up in Gems of War, is there something better than running the arena for collecting cards? Should I be invading more?

The Arena is a decent source of regular keys if you can run the table consistently. Ignore the "buy your team" prompt at the end because it's a ridiculous number of gems. The guild task that gives six keys is also a lucrative source. Magic keys are an option for your gems -- a guaranteed Ultra Rare can be decent, though drawing an Epic from one is a disappointment -- but I'm switching to saving mine for a costume as I've gotten one Legendary from a double handful of Magics. High end cards come when they come.

Guild task seem like a best way to go. The highest level task is 6 keys for everyone at the cost of 33k gold. 30 people, the guild member limit, need to put in 1,100 gold to get them keys. And if you are in a max ranked guild your daily login is 1000 gold plus kingdom gold.

Just find a high rank public guild. I don't if you can look up guilds but i am in "OMG shoes" which has a few whales keeping me rolling in keys. And there is about 6 spots left.

I had to uninstall the game because it was running at about 1/100 of the normal speed. It booted up to a white screen to try and resume my previous game, I never bothered waiting for it to fully boot, as I imagine it would have taken a very long time.

The Android version of survival game This War Of Mine is out on the Play Store. You'll need a tablet to play it.

To add to this, if anyone is curious about running it on a phone I sideloaded the game onto my Xperia Z2 and it seems perfectly playable, though you probably wouldn't want to play it on any screen less than 5 inches. Games Republic are also selling the game (a DRM-free APK) if you can't get it through the Play Store.

An interesting little game called Barcode Knight came out. Enter the dungeon, scan a barcode, and fight monsters.

REDDEN is an intriguing new game that sees you steering projectile weapons through the air like arrows and bullets towards their targets. It seems pretty cool, and has a delightfully kooky story involving talking junk to boot.

Is there a trick to sideloading something like This War of Mine? I bought it with my nexus 7 on the play store, then moved the apk and obb files over to my nexus 6 and installed the apk. It just loops the intro video though. It loads past that fine on my nexus 7, but I really don't use it anymore and would prefer to play it on my phone if that's at all possible

Unfortunately it looks like the game has different apks depending on your device's GPU, which might be the cause of your problem since the Nexus 7 has a Tegra chipset and the Nexus 6 has an Adreno. The version Games Republic is selling works with all GPUs (and you can sideload it onto a phone) but I assume that might not really be an option since you already handed Google your money.

edit: huh, that's odd. I'm getting the same intro looping problem as you did now. Looks like it might be a common issue.

edit2: I cleared the app data and now it seems to work. You could try doing that.

I've got some flights coming up and since cannot possibly live for a few hours without entertainment. I was immediately drawn the various Final Fantasies, but immediately turned off when I learned they phoned home every time you launched the app and since I'd be sans-Internet, well...

These were released years ago though. Do they still phone home? Will I still be unable to play them with an active connection? The OP also seems to have some interesting words about Tactics. Is there a specific Final Fantasy that works better/sucks less than the rest of them?

For any Dragon Ball fans Bandai Namco have released a new game called DRAGON BALL Z DOKKAN BATTLE. Pocket Gamer says its some kind of puzzle/board game hybrid; I tried to watch a video of the gameplay but all it did was leave me even more confused.

Star Wars: Uprising is out in soft launch in a few territories (:australia: for one). Its a dungeon crawler in the same vein as Marvel Future Fight, set between Return of the Jedi and The Force Awakens. It should be out worldwide in the lead up to the new film.

I restarted Alphabear in order to make sure I get all the bears before fighting the bosses, but I can't seem to get Viking Bear from Chapter 2. Can someone tell me I'm remembering things wrong and that one is actually in Chapter 3 so I can stop going insane?

I'm pretty sure viking bear is in chapter 2 and you're just unlucky. Took me forever to get werebear for some reason too. There should be an information thing in on thr rop of the screen you can click on the bear selection screen that tells you what bears you can get for that level.

Anyone else giving this a shot? I got base form Frieza for the tutorial, not sure if I got lucky or if that's normal. I haven't played anything quite like it before.. There's a board game, team members, color matching, all sorts of stuff going on. Once I get deeper I can probably explain it better, but I'm digging it so far.

Literally got him right after I posted. Got him from a Silver egg, the first Silver egg I've gotten. Since Viking is a Common, I'm guessing there's some dumb system in play where Gold eggs don't give Common bears often; they just keep leveling up the three Rare Bears I already have.

Got Ninja Bear from the 400-coin battle. +15 seconds to timed stages. :stare:

They really screwed up the bear collecting part of the game, and I'm glad I held off on buying it. I'm not going to pay 5bux for a game where I can be locked out of certain features forever, without ever being warned beforehand.

Wait wait, I'm supposed to play badly on purpose to get common bears? That's idiotic! I've only gotten silver eggs on blitzes, and evne those only when I've been distracted by something else.
