Yeah, I agree; the Mafia Wars "you gotta have energy to do stuff, BUY ENERGY" system blows. BrickWall4's my username, add me peeps.

e:also the game doesn't pause when you are at a loading screen and click away. I just lost 4 energy because of that :saddowns:

I guess next week they're losing the energy system except for PvP so it will be less like Zynga and more like a fun game.

For anyone's who's interested, they've finally removed the need for energy for non-PVP missions, as well as upped the amount of exp and gold you get for killing stuff and some other changes.

Almost the same as the first, but they've added missions that are necessary for unlocking the ability to buy components.

Last time I played it it slows down to the point of unplayability and the top comments were "fix the memory leak."

Kinda frustrating at the earlier stages, but aren't all launch games?

That one was frustrating through and through but if you want to get blitzed and listen to music while playing a one button (two if you count the occasional ultimate smash) game it's not bad.

Particle-physics puzzle game wherein you draw on the screen to funnel particles into a receptacle, in case anyone's curious and doesn't want to sit through an ad for toothpaste or whatever just to find out. :)

I'm pretty sure there are several versions of that on Kongregate and Armor that are ad free except for the splash screen too.

It wasn't so much that as your kind invaded, took everything they could and left. you ended up stranded somehow and eventually find a way off this miserable rock

And after your unexpected and hopefully successful ufo ride (holy crap this is a lightweight shmup), the game resets.

Hot tip you can't equip two spears, swords, rifles, etc at once but you can equip every weapon of a different type simultaneously. The drop box for the rifle/bullet will get in the way of your meat button :xd: and as you run out of bolas and bullets and such the buttons move around in a highly annoying fashion but I'd still recommend the game if you're bored.

This may be a tall order, as I am genuinely not sure if I remember playing this game, or if it was just part of a fevered dream.

Escape the room type game, I think. Maybe a sort of pencil sketchy motif? And I think you're wandering around a house, maybe trying to get together some coins before some sort of sketchy shadow monster things catches up with you? So you maybe have an unknown number of limited moves or time, and if you take too long doing whatever it is you're doing, the sketchy shadow things catches up to you and ???...and maybe the thing was repelled a little by light? Or just slowed down for a moment?

It's kind of freaking me out so I'm guessing it was a dream maaaaaybe based on something, but it keeps giving me the goosebumps. Anyhow, if this actually is real, I'd sure love a link. I know I probably won't have any luck with a description like that, but sometimes goons are scary good at finding lost internet things...

That's a good point, I'll add that in v1.1.1

Also, "Hail to the King, Baby" just makes me think of the Evil Dead movies and the Dreamcast game of the same name instead of Duke Nukem, which I assume was the answer your game was looking for.

It's like saying "Game over, man" was from Major Stryker instead of Aliens and later Aliens based bideo james.

Cardinal Quest 2. Tons of fun. I'm more inclined to call it indie turn-based Diablo than a straight up roguelike though.

3 acts, 6 classes, lots of magic and abilities to play around with. The difficulty can be kind of uneven however. Act 1 took me 24 tries, act 2 took 1, the end of act 3 is nigh impossible seems nigh impossible.

Huh. This is one of the very very few iOS games they have on m.kongregate.com that I discovered when I was looking up Castle Wars on my phone for that person's question on the last page.

The inventory system is a little minimalist but it plays okay.
