Does anyone have any suggestions for Room Escape type games that aren't irritating pixel hunts? I really enjoyed The Room and The Room 2, and looking for similar titles.

Someone mentioned the best time to create a new profile is when they do whatever they call their 'easier to pull a rare thing from the gacha thing'.
Whats the odds theyll do one when they finally roll this out

No clue, but they had one of those special gacha events in February, so it might be a little bit before the next one.

The legendfest seems to always occur at the end/start of months, duration can be between 1-3 days.

They are good if you play from the moment they are released. They usually start out pretty good and then the clamps start tightening. Soon all the f2p tactics get nerfed or outdated. A few months in you either already have a good team or pay up.

Nope, was loosely announced sometime in "March". So far people have dug up much translated assets, and currently its a guildwar event which is a bad time to for new players too.

Early April would line up events better for newcomers, and they just revealed the event banner last night::3:.

That being said, lack of no ads, and a stamina bar make me sad. I would plop down a few bucks to get rid of both.

What's that event banner for?

BTW, the main reason I'm waiting for the English translation is because even with the video guides and Ultimate Guide out there -- there's still a lot of questions I have about early game that I can't find answers for, as in 'what doe this particular button do' and 'what am I doing with all of these particular items', et al.

You're in luck, buddy. There's already a ton of English guides. And the Japanese wiki has the auto-translate function from Google.

That whole event was pretty great even if I didn't understand any japanese, from what I could follow it was a gathering of manly dudes having a good time and beating up giant crabs. That god drat manly man boss theme.

The English version will simply be a language option, but presumably it will also be on the Non-JP Playstore like other global server games.

I started playing Battle Station Harbinger from the Humble Bundle. It's a pretty nice space game... You jump around like FTL, but there aren't a ton of things to do at each spot. The combat is pretty decent, though.

I tend to get these bundles and then barely play any of them, but this one seems pretty good.

Both of these games are awesome, and are no IAP, no stamina/powergems, no F2P bullshit. You buy good game, you get good game. More people should buy both of these games. Especially King of Dragon Pass.

Have it on my SHIELD, just bought it on the phone and sideloaded it without any problems. Game runs absolutely perfectly, and left a review for the devs to that effect late last year. They thanked me but haven't flagged the compatibility for ... I dunno, reasons.

Anybody had a fiddle with this yet? It looks very much my thing, but I rarely spend over a fiver on Play. I'm a tight bugger I guess.

E: Since apparently under ten people worldwide own it, I'm guessing that's a 'no'.

The pockettactics review of Planar Conquest for iOS is out already: http://www.pockettactics.com/reviews/review-planar-conquest/ . The basic takeaway is that it has all the basics of a detailed 4x game, but the UI and overall feel of the game on a tablet was offputting. My instinct is to wait for a sale.
