Congratulations!
Actually I'm finding with enough gear/cards gas is about as good as Super Bombs. Seems like anything with enough bonuses gets pretty insane. I'll happily switch away from gas if a few more cards and more importantly some +explosions gear comes my way.

I lucked into a helm with +4 crate radar so that switch just got a lot easier, yay +15% pick durability.

Oh man, +4 crate radar with the Old One would be some serious wall hacks. Super grenades is the next card to start upgrading. I went with Super Bombs first since I pulled a precious bombs card and that combo plus precious salesman has been my money maker.

I've gotten a lot of grenade cards. Grenades become absolutely filthy as they get leveled - when you're tossing out like 7 grenades per crate, plus two more from Dan, basically everything around you gets obliterated, plus they'll dig themselves down deeper in a hole.

Yeah, grenades are crazy. I use Demolition Dan with max-level More Grenade Crates/Extra Grenades/More Shuffle Explosives, along with gear that gives me more powerful grenade explosions. Pretty much demolishes everything.

Yeah, Super Bombs + Precious Bombs + Precious Salesman is a great way to make money. Especially with the right gear - for instance, I just got a Legendary pair of gloves with 14% chance of dropping precious metals per hit and 70% more bomb crates.

Nice combo, I have helmet with 10% precious drop and 3m precious magnet for lazy farming. Just got some gloves with another 10% precious drop increase but I don't know if it will be better then the 8% more precious bombs I was using. The increased precious drop rate seems to even out the money earned instead of relying on hitting the precious bomb crates.

I found the Frenzy cards to be pretty good in a depth build, as they tend to keep a chain explosion going longer.

Still playing it myself, anyone have any advice for the last few sets of dungeons? I'm currently at 200 pick swings and banking cash to prestige and re-level. My setup is Super Bomb (lvl 4), Super Gas (lvl 3) and Crate Radar (lvl 3) with three pieces of so-so legendary gear including +70% more gas crates gloves.
I've beat Asgard with:

Demolition Dan:
Summoner Hat +30% more Explosive Drills
Surgical Gloves +50% more Explosive Drills
Slipper +50% more Drill Crates
Pick Durability +20%
Drill Power; Drills hit 11-12 times
Explosive Drill Power: Drills hit 10 times and Dynamite is 21-23

Ya, it's all about the drilling baby.

I'm pretty sure it doesn't use iCloud. I think it uses Square Enix's own servers, though I could be wrong.
Just try opening/closing the app a few times or resaving to the cloud on your first device. Eventually it'll pop and show you the updated save on their server. Happened to me once, too.

Body Parts...that are edible
My phone locked while entering a battle in CivCrafter, and my entire army of about 3000 disappeared. My lowest resource being metal, I figured it was going to take a long time to get back to where I'd been with my knights. I reported it to the dev, mostly hoping I'd somehow get the 100k metal back to put towards my wonder. I still haven't heard from them, but I am suddenly 1000 gold richer.

I'm not complaining, but I hope they fix that.

Super Bombs, Coal Frenzy, and Metal Frenzy has lead to some pretty hilarious chain reactions for me - I want to replace Coal Frenzy with Precious Frenzy to move the chains to later when there's more rock though.

What could possibly go wrong?
In Pocket Mine 2, does level alter the stats of crafted legendary gear?
As in, is it worth spending all of my cubes on legendary gear ASAP, or waiting until I am a higher level?

Your level won't matter but legendary gear is not worth spending cubes on. Craft legendary cards, you will get gear over time from completing the artifact collections.

It's probably been brought up here before but I just downloaded something tonight called "AdVenture Capitalist" and the thing has broken my brain. I'm literally staring at a screen watching numbers go up and it's like the dumbest thing ever but it scratches that part of my brain deep inside where I'm still an ape and like watching numbers get bigger and bigger and bigger.

So yeah. Take that for what you will. Now I'm going to go back to staring at numbers.

The thing I didn't understand is that for a game that's just a bunch of timers and numbers getting bigger, why does it eat up so much of my battery life?

IIRC it's supposed to be coming out on PC first. Although to be fair, it was also supposed to come out in late 2013, so maybe it's now a cookie clicker clone or something. I dunno.

Yes. If you haven't played HS before they're a good idea, but you can breeze through them and you have to do all of them.

Thanks! We're also offering an ad-free version for $1.99 that just went live too. We're experimenting with offering a free and paid versions because quite honestly absolutely nobody buys out of ads but there seems to be some clamoring for more games to ditch all IAP. https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/stick-move/id980240877

They share the same leaderboards and currently have the same content (once you watch an ad on the free one) but we might offer paid only modes or content in the future. Will have to see how the game is received I guess!

Realizing that the grind Blizzard expects you to put in to play for free is worse than a lot of appstore f2p games got me off of it really quick. I'm sitting on two dozen unopened packs and like 12000 dust and I have no inkling whatsoever to get back into it. That game is aggressively priced.

The game looks fun! Too bad I'm terrible at anything requiring twitch reflexes. Or just reflexes :v:. I immediately had to load https://soundcloud.com/com-truise after watching the trailer so extra 10 points.

Bold move on offering a paid version. We are in a similar conundrum about what to do with iPad pricing this time around and we will probably price match it with the PC version. Same game, same price. Definitely launching in Steam has completely changed our perspective.
