I just purchased a Nexus 6P and want to install some games on it for my 10+ hour flight in a few weeks. I checked out the first post in this thread and considering downloading Hitman GO, Monument Valley, Wayward Souls, and Triple Town. Does anyone else have any recommendations on other fun games I can play? I've been hearing a lot about that Neko / Cat game.

You might also want to check out:
Crossy Road, a fun Frogger clone.
Dungelot, a sort-of Rogue-light.
Dungeon Raid, a goon-made match 3 RPG with funny stories as to why you're in the dungeon each time you start a new run.
Tiny Tower Vegas, a goon-made idle hotel simulator.
Nimble Quest, a goon-made RPG-like Snake clone.
Punch Quest, a goon-made endles runner with hats.
Twist My Jeweles, a Bejeweled Twist clone.
Where's My Water?, a kind of physics-based puzzle game.

I'm not sure if the next two can be played offline:
Wayward Souls, a goon-made Rogue-like.
Marvel Future Fight, an ARPG game.

Also, if you haven't yet, get Google Opinion Rewards. Take surveys, earn free Google Play Credit.

Depending on how active you want to be, plopping a Thief and a Healer in your team, starting at 1, and turning on auto battle is a lazy way to get some nice dough. Triple chests every ten levels is pretty nice since you can sell all the crap.

If I understand how Knight works, throw one of those in there, too. They always pick a random door when those show up, and because they're immue to traps, the door will always be either a Fountain or Bonus Treasue.

It looks like Humble Bundle have retired the regular fortnightly Android Humble Bundle for some reason. The site will still continue to have the occasional mobile bundle however, and Android games will also appear alongside non-mobile games in other bundles. Also you can now find Android game in the Humble Store.

If I had to guess, I'd say it's because the last bundle (KEMCO Bundle) didn't sell for poo poo. I don't think it ever broke 100k to unlock a new game.

Keep in mind that even though they're unlocked in the VIP menu, you still lose ragezerkers between dimensions.

Shouldn't they be available if you buy them via IAP, so that as soon as you get your Rep back up to their required amount, they're available again?

Actually-- unlike MinuteQuest some weapons will have an auto attack that does more damage per hit (but is slower) than quick tapping. And some jobs, like Girl, have auto movement, too, while equipped.

It turns out that, for the Hammer, anyway, if you start the attack, then tap as fast as you can while it's rising, then stop, it will do more damage.

If you enjoyed Soda Dungeon you should know that Mystery of Fortune is somewhat similar, but with the ability to customize the automatic fighting behavior of your dudes, and hilarious Engrish. And right now it's free*.

* It seems it's only free on iOS right now. It's $0.99 USD on Android.

Solkanar512 posted:

This is a rather interesting looking game. Quick question though - with the programmable AI, are the five slot an order of actions or more of an if statement where it proceeds to the next action if the previous one isn't allowed for some reasons? How have you set your healer?

It's an if statement, and skills have a short cooldown so even if you have enough ether the characters won't spam their skills continuously. My healer is set up as:
Ether > 900 multi healing
Self < 90% healing
Friendly < 50% multi healing
Friendly < 90% healing
Self collect ether

The self collect line keeps the healer from wandering into the fray and does a lot for his survivability, more than anything else really. Overall I find that the healer is very weaksauce and I use fighters with self-healing abilities to complement that (soldier and temple knight right now) because those that don't have any die much earlier in dungeons.

I've been getting a bunch of location surveys for places like Walgreens, Target, & Chili's lately (I like their chips & salsa, don't judge) if anyone needs some Google nickels. I don't recall if I've used my phone at those places or if Google is logging everywhere I go, but I got all three in the past week or so.

I love when they send you the same survey multiple times. So far, I've gotten a survey for Arby's because I was there on Saturday. It asks which of the following I've visted recently, when I was at Arby's, and how I'd rate my visit from 1-5 stars. The first time, I got $0.25. This time, I got $0.37. The only change in the survey was the places that weren't Arby's.

I hope they send it to me a few more times...

A quick Trip Report for Final Fantasy Brave Exvius.

:siren: First and foremost, this is a beta. :siren: There are issues, crashes, and bugs, so be prepared for them.

Removed the rerolling info. Everything is pretty confusing. One thing says to only use one FB account, another says to use two. From my own experience, I think the use 2 accounts is right, because when I tried to save, it overwrote.

My best guess is: After you get 500 Lapis, do a roll. If it's not a 4★ or 5★, log into your throwaway account, then log out. Repeat until you get what you want, then log in to your main account. Uninstalling/reinstalling doesn't help if you screwed up like me and logged in to your main account first.

There are various locked chests that show up. You can buy keys to unlock them via IAP, but it might be better not to do that. Japan has had various events that made obtaining keys easy. I'd suggest waiting.

And some starter tips from reddit.

Updated the info in my Final Fantasy Brave Exvius post. Rerolling isn't as simple as all that, since it requires 2 FB accounts, and you need to use your throwaway one first. Bleh.

The Final Fantasy Brave Exvius Pre-Register page is live. They're doing a promo like they did for Final Fantasy Record Keeper, and setting up giveaways based on the number of pre-registration points they get.

You can contribute 100 Points: 30 for pre-registering, 10 for Liking them on Facebook, 10 for sharing them on Facebook, 10 for following them on Twitter, 10 for Tweeting about them on Twitter, and 30 for Inviting up to 3 friends.

However, you don't have to actually do any of those. Just click the button for each, and it will open a new window. Then close the window, and see that you have the points.

1,000,000 points was the first goal, and it's been reached. Everyone who pre-registers will get Magitek Armor Terra from Final Fantasy VI.
1,500,000 points gets you 3 Elixers and 5,000 Friend Points (you can spend 200 FP on the Gacha to get a random hero)
2,500,000 points gets you 500 Lapis (the Premium currency; you can spend 500 on the Gacha to get a 3★+ hero)
3,500,000 points gets you 5 Phoenix Downs and 10,000 Gil
5,500,000 points gets you 10 Rare Summon tickets (1 can be used instead of 500 Lapis on the 3★+ Gacha)

I've been playing it since it soft launched in Sweeden, and it's like a combination of old school Final Fantasy and Final Fantasy Record Keeper.
