I think my dog is going to die. He needs food and water, but it is too expensive. I wonder if you even need to feed them.

Anybody know a simple way of recording audio from phone to PC? I've been using "Project My Screen" to stream, but I've had to but random music for cats in the background.

 
Yeah, my dog has been thirsty for hours, I don't have enough gold to buy him water. Tough luck pooch!

This game sucks btw.

 
You know if I didn't know you two were talking about a game I'd report the last two replies to the police for animal abuse, LOL.

Yeah......a game....that's it. That's the ticket!

Gravity Guy 2 is missing in action. Delisted maybe?

I deleted it a couple of days ago to make room for Kinectimals, and now I guess I won't be able to download it again! :(

 
For those having trouble with Kinectimals Unleashed: First thing you want to do is buy 2 more cheap dogs as soon as possible. Once one gets tired, swap it out at My Den for another dog and all its meters will refill within an hour. The meters on the active pet will never refill, even if you turn the game off and come back an hour later. Not sure if it's an exploit to be patched later or what the devs intended, but saves a lot of coins having to buy food and water.

I'm at level 6 right now and it seems like it's taking forever to level up again. I can't access any new areas until I reach a higher level, so I have to keep doing the same free plays over and over for XP.

 
lumia icon, wp8.0, verizon here. 
just a few notes, the direct link to the website actually says that it's not available for my phone, but since i posted it i was obviously able to get it in the store(still available too).  At least for me it shows up as the first item in the nokia collection part of the wp store.  

 
Now this a pleasant surprise. This morning Temple Run 2 apparently became available to phones with 512MB (at least mine anyway). My 8 year old daughter is pretty good at it on the andriod so she can play it for me should I get stuck. :)

Final Fantasy I is great on the phone, very easy to pick up and play for short bursts or long sessions. And since it's turn based, it controls fine.

Shame Final Fantasy III has gone on sale yet though. I just can't justify dropping $16 on a phone game.

 
I want 3 for $5.

FF1 is really fun. I think I stopped playing right at the final boss. I might go back and try again.

Magic Realms review - This is my favorite WP game right now. Give it a shot and be sure to join my clan if you stick with the game!
At first I didn't like it at all because it seemed like I had no control over the outcome of battles. Now I'm at area 4 or 5 and I'm starting to lose a lot with auto battle, so I might finally be at a place where I have to start playing. That should make it more fun.

I've been saving all my gold, but thinking about spending them on cards to use as enchant material. I've been using Fire Tokens to get new cards. I have no idea what else I can use them on.

 
Hopping Penguin is a good Rayman-like platformer, and free to play!

Fire tokens are just for buying cards, so don't worry about that. Sometimes the devs do a timed event in which spending fire tokens gets you extra rewards, so maybe hold onto a few if you can.

Enchanting the cards in your deck is very important. You should use any 4- or 5-star cards you have as the start of your deck, and level those up as much as you can (get them all to level 5 before worrying about level 10). Fill out the rest of your deck with the best 3-star and below cards you can fit, emphasizing stats and abilities over total number of cards.

When you hit a level you can't win, go back and focus on 3-starring past levels. Having 3-starred everything or run out of challenges you can beat at your current level, consider Exploring as a way to build up and earn new cards. And of course, don't forget to complete the best 2 mazes you can daily, since those are an invaluable resource of cards, gold, and XP.

Hope that helps!

Thanks. That helps a lot. Do you know how to make a 2nd deck? I'd like to make another one for all the levels that require specific types of cards.

My pleasure! Extra decks unlock as you reach level milestones. I'm level 40-something and I have 4 decks, so I think maybe they unlock every 10 levels. You probably know to hit the Switch Decks button from the Deck screen once you've unlocked that feature.

 
The Win8 deal is 4 Elements II. Surprising because it's both a game that I don't own and something that doesn't completely suck.

 
Yes, this is the cheapest price for FF1.

In  delisting news (I am sure most of you have heard about this since it's a couple of days old).

The following Win8 games got delisted:

Gunstringer: Dead man running

The little mermaid undersea treasure......whatever it's called

Doritos crash course Go
