Here it is, Baby.
Your killer track.




I only played the first level so far and it's pretty great. Looks and plays like an SNES game. Didn't see any option for IAP and I'm not sure what they would sell anyway. Collecting all of a certain item apparently unlocks a trailer for the new season.

I thought season 1 was decent enough, and it makes some interesting and unexpected changes to the lore.

I'm not fond of Digimon but there's a new Digimon battling and raising game out on the Play Store for those interested. It was originally released in Japan last year.

What's the progression path I should be taking in pocket mine? Focus on doing the adventures or the events? Save cash to upgrade the blacksmith or cards? Spend coins on crafting lower level gear or trading it in for more rare coins?

I'm in the desert levels and can't get to the bottom of the levels anymore.

The more you spend on the blacksmith the higher the level of the picks, which means they get more hits and you can reach lower levels. That said, you need more tokens per level, so don't just smash the upgrade button a million times with lovely equipment like I did, and have to suffer through getting more tokens with whatever poo poo I had.

Though I'm finding a little bit of everything is fun, so do whatever.

Gadzooks! I'm terrified of this little child who is going to stab me with a knife. I must wrest the knife away from his control and therefore gain the upperhand.
Anyone else notice how inconsisten the game speed is when playing pocket mine? Sometimes it seems like I have to move very quickly through a mine and the characters and everything move lightning fast whereas other times it feels slow and like I have a ton of time to decide where to go.

Not sure but I think the game is just poorly optimized and sometimes tends to bottleneck.

Yes absolutely. When first installed it was very slow, then a few days later sped up a lot and I thought something was wrong. But then I realized the initial slower speed was actually wrong.

for me it's usually onyl bottlenecked when i hit a bomb that sets off three lightnings on one of the 2 or 3x difficulty zones, seems to be that all the different poo poo it has to animate suddenly throws a spanner in the works. frankly im baffled they still havent implemented some kind of offer system. i've got a bunch of maxed out common tier sets and some uncommon ones too that i'd love to just put up so that anyone starting can grab a bunch to get some cards but nope just gotta wait for people to request single ones i guess

just kidding im not baffled that would make it too easy for people to get away with not grinding out sets to get their first cards going lol

I'm playing it and as a fan of FTL I'm really liking most of it, but the multiplayer seems 1v1 asynchronous PvP only for now, so not really sure how it's an MMO other than having a general chat channel. Hopefully they add some coop stuff.

I tried it out for a couple of days and had fun with it, but there is a lot of work that needs to go into it as far as fleshing out the core mechanics. There's not a lot to do yet so it relies heavily on needing a lot of resources to upgrade things coupled with the standard premium currency for speeding up ship upgrades and stuff.

Check APKMirror. 99% of the time, when a writer has to sideload an app to write a review, they upload it there. APKMirror is run by Android Police, so it's safe.

New Pocket Mine 3 update adds legendary gloves, ability to upgrade crafting to level 40. Rubies for extra card slots, one per card per run. More adventure worlds and other stuff. Somehow though I can't upgrade my epic tokens to legendary ones anymore.

Looks like the game doesn't support Android 8, which is a bummer since I'm on a Pixel XL.. Oh well, I'll wait like everyone else.

sorry, gotta take a lil dump on your post here. i really think it is in every Android user's interest to be extremely careful of grey-market app store like this, regardless of who they are run by. the reality here is that even the official app stores run by google and amazon have serious issues with bad apps, so saying "oh hey but this one is good because it's run by an android blog that lights up your adblock like a pinball machine" isn't a good argument. i know most people reading this thread understand this already but imo it's something to always keep vigilant about

It's in the patch notes that they removed upgrading epic tokens to legendary ones and instead give you a 10% chance to create a legendary item when you try to craft an epic one.

It's not in the patch notes for me on the Play Store (I'm in the UK if it makes a difference, v2.7.2) thanks for the heads up.
