Thirded. Hitman GO is a great puzzle game, and at $0.99 it's a steal.

So, I can't say anything for sure really, but I might have been beta testing a game based on a popular zombie comic book that has spawned a popular zombie television show that will be releasing in the next few weeks, and if I was, I'm sure it was a shitload of fun. I would probably highly recommend it once that thing comes out, if I could talk about it at all. It might be an episodic squad-based combat city building game or something like that. I don't know. I guess we'll all find out together.

And yeah, you read that totally hypothetical thing right- it would be based on the COMICS. Which is pretty cool. EDIT: Would be pretty cool. Would be.

Would it be like the comics where it's fun and interesting for a bit, then incredibly boring for a long time, and then finally getting "interesting" again by killing 80% of the cast and repeating the cycle?

I envision it as more of an alternate reality universe where your team of randomly acquired folks from the zombie comic.. Where you could hypothetically have folks like "Dick" the small town cop with one hand, "The Mayor" from the quaint town of "Stoneberry", "Lishonne" the stoic sword wielding lady, and that "Jesus" dude from The Bible could all fighting side by side against the undead, or even the living depending on the situation. Maybe you could rebuild Stoneberry after the events that went down at the Jail House. I really wish I could get more specific than that..

There is no good (or even decent) city builder on phones. If you have a computer, get SC4 or City Skylines.

Most classes in Hearthstone succeed by destroying your opponent's health points. Priest succeeds by breaking your opponent's spirit and driving them insane. At least, that's how I feel when I face a good priest, and they systematically nullify everything I've accomplished :saddowns:

Warlock falls under this category too sometimes.

Yes, I will now list them for you in alphabetical order:

(In all seriousness though, isn't there that one Kairosoft game that's sort of a town builder?)

Dungeon Village, or Edo Towns. Neither are really what you want, but no such game really exists, unfortunately.

Yeah, they fixed it already. It was supposed to be $7.99 initially in the US store (and that is the price on iOS), but they accidentally priced it at 99 cents for a while.

Is Sim City not good? Is Megapolis not good?

I'm ashamed to admit I got on OK with Dungeon Keeper for a month or two before the counters all got ridiculous, is it the same sort of problem?

If megapolis is the one I'm thinking of, I ended up having to build and destroy huge amounts of basic level buildings to get a chance for a drop of the right item needed to build higher level stuff. Then I needed to build and destroy heaps of those to get the next level and gently caress that.

Sim city is terrible, not as bad as Dungeon keeper but similar trappings. Not played megapolis but going by reviews it's not much different.

I went ahead and spent the $15 bucks for the season pass. The quicktime events are a bit of a chore at times, but the story seems solid and it's a "your choices matter" sort of thing. They even go out of the way to flash stuff like "Lord Forrester will remember that" at the top of the screen when you make a choice.
