In my defense, when I said that, I hadn't finished Lifeline yet. Though I wouldn't say the writing is "bad", it strikes me as being aimed at the young adult market. The protagonist is authentically a dumb grad student.

Alphabears uses a weird dictionary, because it doesn't take "June" but it does take "jun" which is only a word in Korean as far as I know. I've found that if you randomly tap on a few letters there's about a 10% chance it will tell you that it totally is a word. Though I think the funniest word I've used so far is "scutes".

FredMSloniker posted:I just found out that you can't replay previous chapters in Alphabears, which means that you can, apparently, miss collecting bears forever. Which kinda sucks. Source or speculation? That seems like a really stupid design flaw. My gut feeling is that you have a chance for literally any bear in the game when you play the "400 coin" battles. e: and I thought "scutes" was funny because I thought that's how you spell the word that you would use like this: "My dog's anal glands itch, so he scutes across the carpet a lot"

hooah posted:Speaking of Alphabear, what are the two currencies for? If they explained that, I must've missed it. Honey just lets you play the normal games (timed and nontimed). Coins should be hoarded for the "400 coin treasure hunt" stages. Never use Coins to "wake up" bears, just do something else. $5 for infinite honey sort of translates into $5 for infinite coins since you always get at least 5 coins per game, and sometimes get up to 40 or 50? I dunno. I just got 50 for gaining a level in Devil Bear, but then got only 5 for gaining a level with Mummy Bear e: oh I think you get more coins if you get a high score, so you could probably game the system by doing lovely and then doing slightly better each time

BobTheJanitor posted:Outside of the basic scrabble gameplay, the only metagame they've got is bear collection. You'd think they'd want to make it obvious which bears are in which chapters and try to encourage a pokemon catch 'em all desire so players want to buy honey/coins to try to pick up missing bears. There is a way to tell, I think, it's just never pointed out to you. If you view the collection, they're arranged in order of zone. And it's usually obvious which zone contains which kind of bears (scary zone contains Devil and Mummy, for example). I started over and got the two I missed in zone 1 (Panda and Skinny). I'm glad I figured it out before I had like a level 100 bear or something.

I restarted Alphabear in order to make sure I get all the bears before fighting the bosses, but I can't seem to get Viking Bear from Chapter 2. Can someone tell me I'm remembering things wrong and that one is actually in Chapter 3 so I can stop going insane?

Jingleheimer posted:I'm pretty sure viking bear is in chapter 2 and you're just unlucky. Took me forever to get werebear for some reason too. There should be an information thing in on thr rop of the screen you can click on the bear selection screen that tells you what bears you can get for that level. Literally got him right after I posted. Got him from a Silver egg, the first Silver egg I've gotten. Since Viking is a Common, I'm guessing there's some dumb system in play where Gold eggs don't give Common bears often; they just keep leveling up the three Rare Bears I already have. Got Ninja Bear from the 400-coin battle. +15 seconds to timed stages.

The devs of Alphabear gave everyone 400 free coins, improved the daily challenge design, and added a way to go back to previous chapters. They also said all of it in a really nice, well written thank you message. I think they might be the beary best developers out there

Meatwave posted:Alphabear is great for teaching kids how to read and write, except when you have 5 letters left on a perfect game and they are UNCTY. I swear that the devs made it so that the letters that will help you spell terrible words are more likely to drop. Can confirm this happens to me all the drat time. The letter generation is far from random, and sometimes you're playing "guess what obscure word the engine decided to give you the letters for". Probably my only complaint about the game. e: but in that case you could do "CUT" and then "NY" probably

Who the hell cares about loam when there's a C-bomb lying right there? I just wish that when you hit the "refresh" button that it picked new words. It clearly only picks about 5 of the words you used per run. If it picked from the entire pool every time you hit Refresh it would come up with funny ones worth posting a lot more often. Then again maybe that's the point, the devs wanted it to feel special when you actually hit a funny one. e: I drive by a Home Depot almost every day, and it never triggers a survey.

Gwyrgyn Blood posted:Any particularly good mathy puzzle games around, vaguely similar to SquareLogic or Hexcells? Basically something without a lose state where I can stare at a bunch of numbers blanky for a few minutes at a time. Free or Pay is fine, as long as it works okay on a small-ish screen. Sixcells is a functional clone of Hexcells and the guy who made Hexcells gave it his blessing. I haven't personally tried it (I got way burned out on Hexcells because I played all three games in a row).

I'd be surprised if this hasn't come up yet, but Night of Full Moon is a shockingly great card/RPG game that's totally free (you have to pay a buck each for any extra classes you want to unlock but the base class is fine, it's just less complex than the others) It has a lot in common with Slay the Spire and Guild of Dungeoneering and has a really cute art style.

If you tap the screen immediately after finishing a puzzle it will cancel the loading of that ad. At least on my phone.

Are there any other games like that where you run through things until you die and then you unlock stuff and run through it again, but that doesn't take hours for a single unlock that might not even help you? I checked the play store and most of them are dungeon crawler type things where you have to tap everywhere you wanna go and that just ain't in my interest right now. Desktop Dungeons? I mean you still have to tap everywhere but the dungeons are short
