I found Peglin to get very repetitive with its stages and boards but I think I wanted it to be more Peggle or Pinball-like than it actually is. If you're alright with the boards themselves being basically the same and not growing in complexity like a Peggle game, its still fun

I tried it and it's fun although like Peggle there's a lot of "Jesus take the wheel" when it comes to balls. It's all about what balls you take and the item build more than any real semblance of skill, so it's a turn based RPG roguelike more than anything else. I just wish it was more clear how far enemies could move in one turn.

You could try Roundguard for some more but different peggle rogue like action.

Compared to a mammoth like Slay the Spire, it felt like Peglin was still pretty heavily lacking in content the last time I played it.

I really wanted to like Peglin but yeah I didn't find it that engaging. I also think the Android port is pretty poorly done because the fonts and buttons are all really the same size so it's not the best mobile game.

I tried the peglin demo and it felt like it was impossible to not fat finger everything on phone. Maybe it plays better in tablet? I like it okay on PC but it also feels a bit light, it's early access still so we'll see how much gets added.

i really enjoy peglin, the port's not brilliant but it gets the job done. i dont care for roundguard as much, it feels bulky to me, if that makes sense. whoever mentioned merge mayor, thank you. i love dumb merge games and it's very polite as far as monetization goes

Does luck be a landlord have achievements somewhere in the game? I'm on floor 5 and just assumed it would unlock later like stats. I checked Google play games and it does have achievements there but none of them are unlocked. I've unlocked a bunch of em in game and I wanted to see which ones but alas

Yeah I gave Roundguard a try too and I like Peglin more. Its more random but at the same time when you get lucky and line something up that results in your ball going all over and racking up massive hits it's a great feeling whereas in Roundguard it often just leaves you mostly dead.

Go RV! posted:Anything really must play on Google Game Pass?

I'm sure there's other stuff but like you said finding stuff is difficult There are loads of kairosoft games and I thought I'd like them since I played game dev story to death a decade ago but the ones I tried seem to be trying to do too much stuff. I don't want to put down buildings and manage 50 different things I just wanna pick thing a and thing b and give them a goofy name and see if it does good

I think eventually rent would get too expensive but I don't think I want to play to that point. I have a bunch of different multipliers on the cat and every 2 spins the telescope activates which makes everything activate on everything else. So every 2 spins I make 1 to 2 million.

It has such chill vibes, is super generous with rewards, and I take breaks and when I come back there's a ton of new stuff. Really thankful to whomever recommended it in this thread.

I think (not 100% on this) you can't get duplicate essences so if you get something else, disable it so guillotine has a higher chance to drop next time.

Your rent was 57k and mine is 65k so you got those crazy numbers way quicker

And I remember having a far more primitive spin-slots-to-complete-quests on my iPod ten years ago. Which isn't to say that Landlord ripped off either of _those_, either. Sometimes the trick is to simply revisit a genre in a new and creative way.

I really appreciate people coming back to say you still play it and enjoy it. It's so chill and I watched their first anniversary stream or something back in the day and the devs seemed chill too.I stopped playing because I had literally done everything at one point but now I'm wondering if I should reinstall. Sounds like they're still updating with interesting content.

I've nailed the obviously good farmers+pears combo, with a side of hives and bears to kickstart the slow ramp up. Now I deleted the bears and it's just farmers, pears and chefs and points in the millions. Nothing gamebreaking like some other examples here, but I hoped the rent would catch up. Should I just restart?

LBAL chat: I really thought I did well with my Flower/Sun's bullshit where I had the flowers 5x value by themselves and the "Sun always adjecent" essence but it's nothing compared to you maniacs. Merge Mayor chat: I started playing this due to the thread recommendation, and I am enjoying it. Very chill and generous.

I'm up to rent payment 200 and an octillion gold and at this point the game seems to be finding ways to make the number go higher faster. I've seen an essence item called guillotine which will let you kill yourself if you have over a billion gold. There's probably an achievement for that.

Wanted to share a game I found and shared in the clicker thread but wanted to bring here. Tingus goose! It is a clicker game, however the art direction is pretty cool. It also has a merge component which makes it a pretty neat puzzle as well. Here is me hitting a quad merge!  And here is a trailer https://youtu.be/DF06x-hFFUM Link: https://g.co/kgs/6uKvo7
