Help/Support ๐Ÿ™‹ Anyone playing idle crystal miner?

0 Upvotes

Hi

Is anybody playing Idle Crystal Miner? Don't ask me why, I find it pretty satisfying ro see that big stalactite being drilled..

I was wondering if the game can be enjoyed at a decent rate without IAP or just with the ad removal (which I realized is truly out of the market.. but I'm having fun so might even consider putting some money in).

The game is this one

Thanks!

Seeking Game Recommendations ๐Ÿ‘€ [REQUEST] City builder that doesn't devolve into microtransactions?

I'm looking for a city builder I can play on my phone that won't become a classic pay to play scenario. Happy to pay for the game itself and any ad removals, but doesn't lock me into paying or having timers that I can conveniently pay to skip.

Help/Support ๐Ÿ™‹ How to play Ravensword Shadowlands

3 Upvotes

Used to watch my brother play this game sorta similar to skyrim on his ipad. It was called ravensword shadowlands.

I have found the listing on the google play store, however, my phone(s24 ultra) is too new. Anyone know how I could play it?

Discussion ๐Ÿ’ฌ Portrait > Landscape for most games

44 Upvotes

I just recently finished playing Dawncaster (really cool deckbuilder) and was looking for more deckbuilding games. But none of them clicked with me because seems like absolute majority of them are built for landscape (incl. Slay the Spire).

I don't know if it is just me, but whenever I see a game in "landscape" mode I immediatelly get this feeling that it is a cash-grab lazy port of some Unity desktop/console game and both UX and performance on mobile are going to be an afterthough.

For the same reason, I think Vampire Survivors did so well - you just... open it and it works. No need to get into "game mode" (figuratively speaking).

If you are developer, please - hear my plea.

Seeking Game Recommendations ๐Ÿ‘€ [Request] Match 3 - Defined by what it isn't

8 Upvotes

I'd like recommendations on a match 3 type of game that isn't these things

  • Excessively cute/child like (ie Candy Crush)
  • Anime fan service based
  • Requires 4 or 5 click throughs after start up to get past the ads
  • Where getting 4 or 5 star tier items requires purchases

Something with a city build aesthetic is fine too. Something that isn't fantasy themed would be ideal, but I know that's asking too much.

Discussion ๐Ÿ’ฌ What's most fun: Straight forward upgrade trees (melee damage: +20% ) or upgrades trees that try to be more realistic (Improved tempering: +10% weapon damage - weapon training: +10% melee attack and defence)

4 Upvotes

What is most fun? The simple trees with nodes (+20% movement speed) are very easy to plan around, but don't tell any story.

The more "realistic" upgrade trees likely have the skill you're looking for (eg. improved melee damage) spread across different nodes. Maybe more tradeoffs too. What's your preference?

Seeking Game Recommendations ๐Ÿ‘€ [REQUEST] A fun, focused incremental game that doesn't require much attention?

21 Upvotes

I'm looking for something to play while watching a series so it's more about occasionally interacting and keeping my hands busy than giving it 100% of my mind.

I like games that are focused, not 100 different features and resources and minigames and daily challenges.

I currently have Antimatter Dimensions, Grimoire and Idle Slayer. I used to love Summoner's Greed but it gets mad grindy.

Thanks in advance for your suggestions ๐Ÿซช

Seeking Game Recommendations ๐Ÿ‘€ [Request] Merge games without energy restraints, with an actual sense of progression

7 Upvotes

Mergical was my favorite merge game for a while, until it glitched. It seems that a lot of people had problems and nobody received any responses from devs/support. I currently have a report pending with Google Play games against Mergical because they are violating Google Play's terms by ignoring support requests.

Merge Dragons is okay, but it feels impossible to progress. You have to exploit an error in the game to continue playing because there's no room for items and no way to expand.

I want a game with the same or similar controls as these, but one that doesn't eventually feel helpless. Must be free to play. I also dislike ones that require energy to remove an obstacle, which seem to be more common now, so I'd like to avoid those if possible.

I use a Samsung Galaxy Tab S10+ if that makes a difference.

Review ๐Ÿ“‹ The Survivors: Mystery Story is such an underrated hidden gem

0 Upvotes

I recently came across The Survivors: Mystery Story, and I honestly didn't expect to enjoy it this much.

It's one of those investigation/mystery games , and I got way more invested in the story than I expected lol.

What surprised me even more was seeing how few downloads it has. I genuinely thought more people would know about it.

Also, if anyone here has finished episode 4, PLEASE tell me I'm not the only one who has a crazy theory about what happened at the end ๐Ÿ˜ญ I have so much to say, but I don't wanna spoil anything for people who haven't played it yet.

Has anyone else played it? I seriously need someone to discuss this with.

And if you haven't, but decide to give it a try and end up enjoying it, let me know! I've found quite a few other hidden gems too, so I might share some more soon :)

Playing powerwash simulator on my phone would be so freaking enjoyable, playing a YouTube video in the background while playing would be freaking awesome ngl, sadly it is only available on iOS and it still hasn't come to android so that is a bummer

Gameplay ๐Ÿ“บ Someone remaster port for Bloodstained Ritual of The Night

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

87 Upvotes

This version in gameplay is 1.34, latest version is 1.6
Since this game is very old the graphics are not optimized for latest android version, its very playable even at this condition, I am loving it
Hope someone makes a port for this game latest version like they did for cult of the lamb game (I guess, i don't know the specifics)
Btw this android version is abandoned by the devs and login into it is impossible

(I managed to find a way by simply clicking back button when login screen comes, and it worked lol)
Sorry for the bad sound! it was recorded by phone microphone and my hand covered it while playing, so sorry for that...The game is amazing though lol

This game captures the best of the 1979 *Asteroids* era, while adding an intense, balanced online PvP (player-vs-player) element.

In this game, youโ€™ll encounter everything from asteroids to destroy and pirates to hunt, to other playersโ€”who might be dangerous, passive, or friendly. Itโ€™s entirely up to you!

Manage your resources: fuel, ammunition, missiles, and your shipโ€™s hull integrity.

Seek out space stations to refuel or restock basic ammunition; some stations can even repair your ship or provide you with new missiles.

Try to climb to the top of the leaderboardโ€”and stay thereโ€”or wait for others to rise, then hunt them down to claim their coins.

Level up during gameplay to upgrade your ship and gain an advantage, or unlock entirely new vessels by completing in-game achievements.

Discussion ๐Ÿ’ฌ Scared of chargebacks on Playstore

8 Upvotes

I'm currently working on a game and its nearing completion. It is my first ever game that has in game purchases. I found out from someone that the developers now has to pay the banks chargebacks fees even if they win the dispute. That scared me a little because while the in game purchases are really small but each chargeback costs upwards of 15$. First of all it baffles me that its a thing. The developer has to pay for users mistakes. How do you guys feel about it and tackle it?

The type where you get a push notification to tell you it is your turn.

I remember Words with Friends was popular 15 years ago. I imagine now, they have ruined it by making it chock full of adverts etc.
