This is fun so far but I'm looking at the recipe list and :stare:

Yeah, it's one of those games where I rage-quit because I was given a session where everyone wants a grilled gecko and a three-stage drink and I don't want to experience that again... and then I pick it up later on and everyone wants much more manageable orders.

I've been playing that off and on, and I feel it's still kinda a cash-grab at heart. There are some missions that really feel like they were meant to completed with a handful of bombs. There's something :3: about the game, though, especially if you read the in-game Facebook analogue.

Seconding both the fun and "gently caress YOU" feelings of Potion Punch. It reminds me a lot of Cook. Serve. Delicious.

I like CSD a lot more because the controls on mobile were actually pretty good. You just tapped to accomplish everything IIRC. I don't like how you have to drag everything around in Potion Punch, I keep messing up orders because I dragged slightly too imprecisely.

I really enjoyed episode 1 of Out There Chronicles. Is there anything else like that out there, and does anyone have any experience with the studios other game Dungeon Rushers?

It skews heavily toward "gently caress YOU" on the third level when it replaces two of your ingredients with functionally identical ones for the sole, transparent purpose of making you spend coins to re-level two ingredients.

Are there any good ARG games similar to Ingress or Pokemon Go that are any good? I want to like Ingress but it seems like unless you're in some remote area you have no chance to contribute as everyone else is either spoofing or holding poo poo down thanks to their high levels.

I also finally tried Soda Dungeon and uninstalled it after a day, suuuuuuuuuper overrated.

Has anyone played the Android port of Soul Calibur? Does it have the extra modes from, say, the Dreamcast version? Is there any reason not to just bust my Dreamcast out if I get a hankering?

Its a good port but your probably better off just playing it on Dreamcast. From what I can gather it's missing the Team Battle and Mission modes from the Dreamcast version but the extra characters are still in there to be unlocked. There isn't any multiplayer modes either.

There was a thread for location based games a while back but I think it's dropped into the archives. A few goons have been playing Resources Game which is a game about building up a mining/production empire. I've been enjoying it because resources are distributed across the globe according to some sort of noise function, so you don't need to live in a populated area to play.

The Resources Game link doesn't work, it sounded interesting and I loved Ingress, mind fixing the link? Also is this the best one right now?

The big additions seem to be pets, crafting and the ability to go on quests outside the vault along with a buttload of minor ones like new characters and loot.

Resources was my main game for like a year, was very fun. I eventually hit a stopping point well into the end game though and then liquidated and gave away my trillions to randoms.

I only play the game, I've got no control over the store page. http://www.resources-game.ch/en/ is the devs website so as long as you trust a swiss/german programmer with your location you should be reasonably safe making an account. If it's asking for google login details it should either be signing in through Play Games or using Google OpenID, either way you'd be logging in to google and not providing that website with your email password.

I really like egg Inc but it definitely seems like there is a point you will have to buy golden eggs to proceed which is kind of lame. The upgrades that use them scale very fast and the game only gives you a tiny trickle to begin with.

This is more of an apps question but it is related; Is there a podcast app you guys use that doesn't pause during some games? I use Doubletwist and like it pretty well but some games always pause my podcast while open and it makes me not want to play them on break or whenever I'm listening to something.

I think this only happens in games where you can't disable the audio, just turn the volume down. But I have heard people say not all podcast apps do this so I thought I'd ask.
