I nabbed hitman go because I've wanted to play it for ages but couldn't justify paying more than a soda's worth of money for it.

Checking out HOMM because I cannot own it on enough convenient platforms.

edit: incompatible with all my devices. I guess I'm a caveman with my S3 :(

After playing through and almost getting 100% on Lara Croft GO (Just two achievements, which I don't really care about. All outfits unlocked though.), I guess I should pick up Hitman GO, huh?

I'd be up for making one if I can get enough food in time.

e: I've made it, post your account code (tap your name in the top right) and I'll invite you.

Seems Walking Dead is balanced to not let you progress quickly, so you do some battles (reminiscent of the Marvel: Avengers Alliance game), hit a brick wall, then you play some farmville, replay older levels and do some raids for resources, and train up some characters to feed to your main team.

As for raid defence, I'm having better luck by using a team of whatever my strongest trait is, either by character stats or weapons stats. Killing things in the game seem pretty reliant on the rock-paper-scissors theme, so unless they bring a team of hard counters of your team you'll hold out longer.

I could be totally off base here so correct me if I'm wrong.

Hey goons, to stop us all pooping up the thread with invite requests and such for Shop Heroes, I've created a google spreadsheet and added myself as an example. Just put in your SA username and game id and if anyone wants to put someone in their town, just check out the list.

Amazon has added a bunch more games to their 'absolutely free' thing.

Though some people have raised a point that I think has some merit: that some of the 'absolutely free' apps still have pop-up unskippable video ads. Which makes them arguably no longer 'absolutely free' since you're paying with your time and attention (and possibly data plan) rather than money. So free-buyer beware, read the reviews for each app, etc.

Also the UI needs some work. Browsing through the 'see all' list of free games, I'll find something to download on page 8, and then when I back-button to the list it's all the way back on page 1 instead of remembering where I left off. The app seems a bit insistent on creating shortcuts to subsections ("Create a desktop shortcut to games!" >no "Okay well, it's there in the options if you want it later! Just saying." >ok) and pops up app updates on every launch.

All of that said... there's Punch Quest. I will forgive a lot of sins for something that has Punch Quest.

Yeah, it's fairly short. Not bad, and I don't regret using my survey bux for it. 41 levels, but they don't really get very difficult. It took me maybe 3-5 hours I wanna say?

That seems fair enough since at the start I was a little worried that you could blast through it in about an hour like Monument Valley. Square Enix Montreal were also pretty good with adding extra chapters to Hitman GO so I'm hopeful they'll do the same with LCG.

Seems like regions does matter because it's saying invalid code on all three of these. It's baffling that they think their game can support a population on so many servers. Seems the primary benefit of factions is being able to bring an extra guy on missions so maybe joining an active pub guild would be the way to go.

I think that's a good idea. I wish there was a way to preview a city before you accept an invite. I don't want to join one that has fewer people/less upgraded than the one I'm currently in. Maybe I get to take my building with me? I dunno.

Basically if you put 10k gold into a building, when you leave a town, that 10k will be subtracted from the town. When you join a new city, that 10k value will follow you to the new city. Your contributions follow you.


Also I'd be willing to take you in if you're 15+, anything less than that and the whale in my city will probably object.
