Battle Cats appears to be back with a game called, The Battle Cats. Looks like it's by the same guy, still free. Still weird. Still great. As someone who fell into a deep depression after the pull of the OG Battle Cats, this is like a breath of fresh air.

Also, The Battle Cats update: somebody who speaks English as a first language has gone through the game. It's still funny, but in a different way. Also, you fight through all of Asia, as opposed to just Japan, as in Battle Cats. It's great. Just in time for a commute-filler. I love you, PONOS.

axleblaze posted:Quick question about Battle Cats that I'm not sure if anyone knows the answer to: in battle cats I'm completely maxed out on all the things I can spend experience on (which did not take that long at all really), however when I upgrade something using something from the daily capsule machine, it goes above the mac level and lets me level it up to a new max level. If this actually letting me double the goodness of my units or is it just a bug letting me go above the level I'm supposed to stop at? Going off of Battle Cats, your units can level up to 10 in the base game, but once you beat the regular campaign, they can level up to 20. The Battle Cats may be different / bugged, tho. Also, Spymaster is okay, but you could just spend 5bux for a more-than-passable Counterspy port.

Sad lions posted:So on beating the entirety of Silent Age I have to heartily recommend it. A bit surprised by the ending and not sure what to make of the disco guy but the story and atmosphere is solid as all hell and the time travel is handled amazingly in it. The whole game came out? I seem to recall them ending on a halfway note and throwing out a (not entirely unwarranted) hand for some bux.

^^ I know there was one for the OG Battle Cats, at some point. Sad lions posted:Yup. It's in the form of an update and IAP (£2.99 or $4.99). Nice! I really enjoyed the original product. Also: I've been playing hoplite (isometric rogue-lite), Corrypt (weird, pixely puzzle game), and ZiGGURAT (kinda arcadey fixed-point shooter). They all pretty well own.

Box of Cats and Ninja Cat are the best. God Cat gives you a one-time win button but starts charging afterwards in Cat Food. Basic, early-game strategy -- poo poo out basic Cats to stem the tide of opfor enemies until you've fully powered up Worker Cat, at which point save up your wallet until it's nearly full and then just buy one of everything. Tank Cat + Gross Cat can get you through a lot of regular stuff, but you'll need Axe Cat for red enemies, which chew up most stuff real easy. Think of your cannon as an outward poke, not as a last-ditch defense, because it'll never be strong enough to take down the big baddie busting down your wall. Don't bother upgrading your base health -- if an enemy's that far to the base, they've basically already won. Treasures are wholly random unless you pop a Treasure Radar, which are daily freebies / IAP traps. Bogart fucked around with this message at 05:57 on Oct 22, 2014 |

Y'all are negative as hell, Jesus. Ignite Memories posted:Today I am the rear end in a top hat who comes in to the thread with a new iphone. Looking for some fun games in the vein of: Kingdom Rush is dope, the first Fieldrunners 1 used to be really good in the iPod Touch era, Jetpack Joyride is dope, Space Team is among the best multiplayer games ever. Disco Zoo is alright for click and wait, as is that other Kingdom game I've forgotten the name of. I think there might be a Midway Arcade game compilation on iOS, too, but if you're looking for an expanded Space Invaders, Radiant looks gorgeous.

1) gently caress nimblebit i hate inoffensive games that aren't bad 2) iap is killing games 3) referral codes 4) a brief flash of actual discussion 5) posting about posting Solomon's Keep is pretty good. Just started playing it. Wish I had it on my iPad but it works okay on my 5. Tactics Maiden seems servicable but shallow. RETRY is stupid. Just give me Battle Cats and Kingdom Rush forever.

I hate to be that guy, but you really should buy Shadowrun on PC if the option's available to you. It's not a very requirement-heavy game. AND There's a ton of custom content campaigns made. Some of them are even good!  And from Returns to Dragonfall I *think* rebalances a bunch of stuff.

The reviews on the App store for that look super grim, IAP-wise. Maybe the backlash will be so bad that they'll turn around on it, PvZ2 style, but I doubt it.  vv Yes, which is why I said IAP-wise. As in, the ones with devices that work.

Alright y'all, time for the Great February Fone Cleanup. Post all the games you've got on your phone, give 'em a two-sentence or so description, delete them if you don't like them, replace them with those other people recommend. Spaceteam -- not a lot of opportunity to play it anymore, but it's the best mp game on iOS and it's free, so. Keep. Hoplite -- fun and decently complex isometric roguelike. Keep. ZONR -- a 'touch the biggest block' game. The best part is when you start it up and it goes zooooonrrrr in a way reminiscent of SEGGGAAA. Fun time-waster, but. Delete. Friendstrap -- a weird and kinda fun two-player game from the sadly defunct Game Oven. Limited use. Delete. Oquonie -- I have no idea what's going on in this game but I love it.Interesting art style, weird puzzles I only sort of get, captivating. Keep. Threes -- another go-to poop game. You know what Threes is. Keep. Blackbar -- an interesting word game where you 'decensor' correspondence. I've been stuck on a word for like a month but I'll get it eventually, right. Keep. 10000000 -- My favorite Match-3. And the sequel's coming out any day now, right? Keep. Bounden -- another Game Oven joint. Two-player dancing game. Again, fun, but see Friendstrap. Delete. ASYNC Corp. -- this game has GOT to have some deeper plot, right? I should delete it, but I won't. Kind of a Bejeweled-like. Match like-colors to make blocks, then tap the blocks to make them disappear. Keep. Zengrams -- I have never actually opened this game. Delete. Lamp'n'Vamp -- kind of like Hoplite, but with different powers and enemies. Vampires, son. Keep. 868-HACK -- another decent little roguelike, kinda cyber-punky // 90's Hacker-y. Keep. Nightmare Cooperative -- the last of my roguelikes, this one's cool because you control multiple characters at once with different powers. Balls hard. Keep. Recommendations -- Hoplite, Threes, 1000000, 868-Hack, Nightmare Cooperative.

Glad everyone likes the idea!  And again for my iPad, which is my usual collect-games-like--a-squirrel-stuffing-its-cheeks device.FTL -- Firefly Spaceship simulator roguelike. Owns. Will probably never get rid of it. Keep. Wayward Souls -- great game! Hope it gets that PC release that was talked about a while back because even with the pretty good touch controls I still get frustrated. Delete. Hitman GO -- great aesthetic. Fun game. Hitman as a kinda boardgame. Ave Maria. Keep. 80 Days -- my favorite Sorcery!-alike. Looks great on the big screen. Keep. CounterSpy -- the controls kinda suck, but again, I love the aesthetic and all that. Third person spy game with occasional first-person shooting. Has upgrades and a bigger metagame in a kinda XCOMy way. keep. Monument Valley -- used to be on my iPhone but I figured it'd look better on the bigger screen. Still a staggeringly pretty game. Keep. Valiant Hearts -- beautiful looking WWI puzzle game. Proof that Ubisoft can make good games in between Assassin's Cry: The Crew. Keep. Jack Lumber -- Fruit-Ninja, kinda, with a pretty funny story and levels. Not that far into it, but I like it. Keep. Beat Sneak Bandit -- rhythm-based puzzle game. Fun, but short enough that it would do better on my iPhone. Delete. Sailor's Dream -- I love all of Simogo's stuff, but this one might be the weakest. Go around and look at things. Pretty things. Delete. Radiant -- Space-Invaders with weapon progression, a kinda-there story, and is hard as balls. One of the first games I ever bought on iOS, but it's so sloooow. Delete. Cook Serve Delicious -- hardcore restaurant management sim. Perfect for tablets, just long enough to burn some time. Keep. Calculords -- if DOTA2 was a card game, maybe. Not really. Fun little witty cad game, but too much grind. Delete. rymdkapsel -- Difficult to describe. Build a base in space? With little tetris dudes? And stave off red-line invasions. Delete, maybe? I feel like it's a game that you need to have a lot of sleep after to understand. Democracy 3 -- Great little politics simulator game, now mobile. Keep. FRAMED -- comic-book game where you can change the sequence of events to continue. Weird, but fun. Keep. Kingdom Rush Origins -- the elvy dudes just aren't grabbing me right. Tower Defense with heroes. Delete. Icewind Dale / Ending -- bought on a lark. Haven't touched it yet. Keep, for now. Year Walk / Device 6 -- owns. Everyone should play these. Keep. Recommends -- FTL, Cook Serve Delicious, Democracy 3, Year Walk, Device 6. Downloaded Deep Loot and Reversion based on recommendations so far.

Crossposting from the roguelike thread: Neat little iOS roguelike called MicRogue. .99 cents USD, pretty charming so far. Climb ten levels and get the treasure. You die in one go, so do most enemies, you can move one or two spaces in cardinal directions, you've got a shield that can take three hits, some enemies make you swap positions with them, some move in diagonals. Kind of cute art style, nice (limited) writing. Doesn't kill music you have playing for its own (pretty decent) music. I like it a lot so far, even if idk if it's gonna replace Hoplite for me.

Can't speak to that, but Nightmare Cooperative, Hoplite, and 868-HACK are excellent little strategy games, even if they are technically rogue-ish. Other general Good Games are FTL, Democracy 3, Device 6, Year Walk, Sorcery!, Does Not Commute, and i have to say Space Team even though it's literally a local multiplayer-only game.
