iOS Roundup – Carcassonne Mega Expansion Game

Posted on 19/04/2015 Written by gospvg

Luffers started a new game on Carcassonne a couple of weeks ago with all the current expansions enabled which resulted in 262 tiles to play !!

I just managed to win with a high score of 644 points !!





I started to get bored with Pocket Mine 2 so deleted. Words on Tour annoyingly has become very difficult to get three star levels & the game is spamming with in-app purchases now. I've made it to San Francisco before deciding it is time to call it quit. Shame Zynga went for the in-app purchase route I would have been happy to pay up front to play the game.

Still enjoying Motorsport Manager currently on Tier 2 trying to win the International Racing Championship.

iOS Catch Up – Words on Tour, Pocket Mine 2 & Motorsport Manager

Posted on 30/03/2015 Written by gospvg

An update on iOS gaming, I have completed the Tokyo level on Words of Tour & have now arrived in San Francisco.

San Francisco introduces a new timer tile which has a countdown & you have to play these tiles before the counter runs out.

This makes the levels far more difficult especially when trying to get three stars.

I've also started a couple of new games over the past couple of weeks in Pocket Mine 2 & Motorsport Manager.

Pocket Mine 2 follows on from the first game with a new adventure mode that takes you travelling to new locations in search of new loot & cards. It's the same old gameplay but ok for the odd five minute of gaming.

Motorsport Manager I purchased quite a while ago but never got round to playing you manage a motor racing team & compete in various championships whilst upgrading your car, infrastructure & managing your engineers, drivers, sponsors & fans.

I've won the British & Australian championships & currently trying to finish mid table in the Euro championship, this is proving more difficult because I have now moved up a to the next tier of racing so the other teams have far better cars, drivers & infrastructure. It's going to take me a few seasons before I can challenge for the title.


I'm still also playing the usuall turn based affairs & just started playing Fluxx with Abbas yesterday evening who very quickly figured out the game and started winning.

Pocket Mine, Ridiculous Fishing & Dice Jockey – Completed

Posted on 25/04/2014 Written by gospvg

After a couple of months of playing this & on top of most of the leaderboards it is time to call it a day with Pocket Mine.

The last challenge was to top the deepest exploration leaderboard which I recently completed.



Ridiculous Fishing is very similar to Pocket Mine in that it is an endless depth challenge. Collect the fish to get the money to purchase upgrades.

Anyhow moving on ...




Dice Jockey was a lovely little Devil Dice clone but with only 30 puzzle levels it is very quickly completed leaving you with only the survival or time limit modes. It is a game which is easier to play with a controller when you are aiming for a high score or the clock is ticking down so with the puzzle mode completed it's done.

Pocket Mine – New High Score

Posted on 06/04/2014 Written by gospvg


After finishing with Danger Boat it was time to return to Pocket Mine.

New high score depth of 651M which also takes me to the top of the friends leaderboard beating Something Witty.

96: Magic Beans
byugvm

What is this word “late” which you are saying? I do not recognise it and I do not understand it and I do not wish to believe it exists! Episode 96 cannot be late, for it was never scheduled. Sir, you embarrass yourself.

Arguments about timetabling aside, we would like to invite you to enjoy this most recent (at time of typing) episode of your favourite podcast! deKay, Kendrick and Orrah huddled round a warm bucket of cocoa and discussed, to varying lengths, the important news of our time – including Nintendo’s Mario Direct, more unfortunate developers losing their jobs because Money, Microsoft increasing the price of Game Pass (again, because Money) and Starbreeze getting several years into developing an eagerly anticipated Dungeons & Dragons game before pulling the plug because, well, Money. Thankfully, there’s some Good Stuff too, like chat about these games.
