It looks like Terra Battle 2 seems to be available for download but apparently the servers won't be switched on until 11PM Pacific Time.

It shows 'not available in your country' for me, so it might not be downloadable everywhere yet.

The overland map they added is really awful but aside from that it's pretty much Terra Battle again.

Yeah I'm really confused by this overland map stuff. It controls like garbage and it's poorly explained.

Well in Terra Battle 2 when they asked if I was ready to battle, I said yes and I guess that means "skip the tutorial" so now I'm pretty much at a loss as to what the heck I'm doing.

I have been playing on my phone a good bit lately and I'm really, really sick and tired of "yet another battery-chugging MMO-lite" and "yet another citybuilder with pay to win PVP" and "yet another card-based kljsdfhjklaasdfsdf" so i poked aruond and found some interesting games I don't think anyone has mentioned in here yet.

Beholder https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.creativemobile.beholderfree&hl=en (free trial version, or you can buy full game for $2.99) , a sort of CYOA-lite with a dark, Orwellian atmosphere (it reminds me a bit of Papers, Please in that regard), where you play as an apartment complex manager/maintenance man, whose family have been moved into the building and given the position by the state, and who is ordered to spy on all of your residents. You have to walk around the building talking to people, sneak around the building going through others' drawers and cabinets, installing security cameras, and observing your residents' behaviors in order to write up reports on them, or turn them in to the authorities if they misbehave (which garners money). You have to make KODP-esque choices along the way on how to deal with certain events (usually with little to no advance warning of what will happen based on your choices,) decide to plant evidence or not, steal stuff from residents (to sell - you're almost always shockingly low on money which leads to very tough choices), turn people in or help them survive, and also just day to day issues such as your wife making requests for treats for the children, your son's future and potential career path, requests for repairs around the building, etc.

It's a really simple game with a nice aesthetic tat lends itself very well to the attitude and atmosphere, and the game doesn't give a poo poo to explain much to you - I spent an hour or so trying to figure out why the game was so busted that my wife's request for chocolate candy wasn't completing, until i realized there was a "chocolate" item, and a "chocolate candies" item.. A minor detail but it can add a bit of stress to playing, because almost everything is on a timer and some stuff has drastic consequences if not finished on time, such as illness, debt, etc.

I'm not sure if the game has more than one or two replays in it however, it does a great job of keeping you engrossed in the day to day life and responsibilities of your character.

The only quibble I have is that the game save only occurs when you turn in a quest, so you can do a ton of things, quit the game and come back later to realize you didn't quite finish any one quest, so you need to go through a couple small steps again.

Redungeon
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.nitrome.redungeon&hl=en is a Roguelike puzzler, which feels a lot like an old Zelda-style platformer. There're lots of floor tiles with effects (ice, break over time, teleport, etc), urns that giev a strong zelda vibe, fire chains that look a lot like an old Mario Castle obstacle, etc.. It's a lot of fun and puts the stress on you pretty heavily, although it starts off fairly simple after you learn to recognize the first three or four kinds of tiles that can mess with you.

Mushroom Wars: Space https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.zw.mushroom.wars.space&hl=en I'd never heard of this franchise, apaprently it'smaybe Kind of a Big Deal on PS4? It seems like a cutesy Galcon knockoff to me, which is fine, and fun enough for a short while.

I tried Trump Wall https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.build.trumpwall&hl=en from harambe Games (is this the one that Baked Alaska made, which was supposed to be taken down due to copyright infringement over Pepe imagery?) I didn't see any frogs in this game, but you DO have to tap one of two buttnos to hop onto tiles, and outpace Hillary Clinton. it was funny for almost 45 seconds before its crossy road ripoff graphisc and boring-rear end gameplay killed it to me.

There are a frightening number of games which have "trump" and "wall" in the title, they're all exactly what you'd expect.

Qubiso a puzzle game where you rotate stationary pieces until tehy form a continuous whole with no frayed ends. It was fun for a few minutes but then i realized that you literally only do one thing - tap pieces until they fit, then tap other pieces until they fit, rinse repeat. It basically feels like "paint by numbers: the puzzle game!"

Thanks for these. I still have Lineage installed, but haven't logged on in over a month. I've been playing Redungeon, and enjoy it so far.

On the subject of Lineage, I literally saw a googel play page for the game with an "install" option, open on a friind's phone yesterday when I got into their car.. So I guess the US release is or will be live soon?

I installed it (S7), and it sat on the splash screen with the logos for the company, saying "Loading" for several minutes, before it got to the actual start screen. Two separate loading screens in fact, although it didn't seem to download any extra files visibly.

And you can't use numbers when choosing a name, which is immensely loving stupid.

edit: lol, the addition content download is AFTER the long-rear end cinematic intro scene :downsrim:

I'm on S7 too but not even getting to the splash screen or logos. Only things i can think of is the apk I download is bad but I've got it from a few different spots and it's all been the same.

Terra Battle 2 English is up in QooApp.

Rerolling takes super long as Gatcha doesn't unlock until the middle of the second story.

Even when you reach the gatcha the animation takes forever.

Maybe I'll pick this back up. I was pretty stoked about it when the iOS release happened, but by the time the Android version came out I would up only playing the first couple works before losing interest.

Then again, my phone gaming in general had dropped significantly since I picked up a Switch, so who knows.

You mean artifact requests? I think you only get a ruby the first time as an achievement reward.

I mostly got them from completing levels and achievements, but the £5 offer for an extra 5 energy capacity, 20k and 50 rubies looks like a good deal to me if you have survey bux. Spent all of my rubies on the 40 ruby card packs.

No, I meant when you go to the store, and at the bottom right, the last of the six slots, there's some sort of "offers" section, and it says you can get rubies by installing an app and following certain instructions. It doesn't say how many you get, so I don't know if the hassle is worth it.

Also, is Fishing Break any good? I think I'll just try it anyway.

Oh that, on mine it has numbers down the right hand side. I did it a couple of times but I couldn't be bothered after a few. It's like 1-3 for each app you install and run.
