Barely awake and decided to use my Magic Realms energy right away. See that one of my cards isn't level 5. I enchant it. Surprised by how much XP it got. Realized I used 2 five star cards for fuel. Ahhhhh

Oh no! Crap, I only have like 7 5-star cards and I've been playing sooo much and 2 of those came from buying cards with gems.

I'm TeedyBonkers. Joined WPCentral clan. Everybody has so much contribution already. I'm finally starting to win ranked matched after a long losing streak.

FIFA 14 was updatee recently. Anything good added?
 
Six Disney/Marvel games on sale for 99 cents each for seven days on Win 8:

Temple Run Brave

Temple Run Oz

Disney Solitaire

Marvel Initiative

Toy Story Smash It

Marvel Run Jump Smash

On mobile so no links...

 
What's up with 100 Balls? That seems to be the popular game to clone lately. I've never heard of the game before. Do we have the original version on WP? I'd prefer to play the original since the clones look like ripoff clones and not variation clones.
 
My first non-XBL purchase on Windows Phone was Machinarium. Never finished it on PC and I'm planning on playing a little bit each night in bed. I really want them to add Botanicula. That is one of my favorite games.

Oh yeah and thoughts on Ilomilo is it worth it for phone and win8?

Depends how challenging you want the game to be. WP is pretty easy. Win8 is longer and more challenging. Both are worth it, but if you had to pick one go with Win8 unless you're in it strictly for the achievements.

 
Secrets and Treasure: The Lost Cities (Win8) is now free in the U.S. I keep getting a purchase error everytime I try to download it though. Got the same error with Pac-Man DX (Win8) so might just be my problem.

Also, if anyone is playing Kinectimals Unleashed, add me for the daily Pack Challenges. GT: Gunstar Red

Ooga, I've been sending you gems now and then since I have so few friends who play it, but if you're not playing anymore then I won't bother.

I haven't logged into that game GunstarRed in about a month. I had to remove it from my phone since it takes up too much space. I've been too distracted to do anything with the Win8 version. I guess I can check it for a minute or two everyday and sen you some gems.

 
Just got a Nokia Lumia 1020 and I'm loving it. Dowloaded like 20+ free games so now I have even more to add to the backlog.

Gun Star, I added you to my friends list since I'll be working on Kinectimals GT - Dustinator

 
Fantastic DOTW this time. Rayman Fiesta Run for both WP & Win8 is $1.

I already have the Win8 version, but picked up the WP one a few minutes ago. I looooooove this game. So much better than the abomination that is Jungle run.

Finally bought Fiesta Run for my price point of $1, well worth the wait!

Oh and if anyone still plays Kinectimals Unleashed, add me so we can share gems and add each other to the pack: my gamer tag is Gee x Wiz

Message me w/ the word "Kinectimals" if you are going to add me :)

Tried adding you but can't do it from the phone for some reason. Add me if you want.

 
Add me too if you want: MrZombieChicken

I accidentally overwrote my save file (from WP) with my new game save (from Win8). So I don't feel like making up what I've lost from scratch. I can however send/receive gems everyday, hopefully building up a massive cache of gems that will make progressing much easier when I do decide to play this crappy game.

What's your gamer tag? :)

It's Feeni, same as my name here. Hmm, used to be in my CAG profile. I think that must have got lost during the site switchover a while back.

Also, anyone know what the Jetpack Joyride update is about?

Just log in every day and play the daily Pack Challenge, which is MUCH easier on WP8 than Win8 since the challenges usually require the best time possible. Only takes a few minutes and if you have several friends playing it too, you can farm about 5 to 10 gems a day. If it were like the first WP7 game where you could unlock everything without microtransactions or gems, it would be much better.

 
If anybody plays Angry Birds Epic, add me on Facebook so we can exchange hearts. I really want to get get in the heart gate without using 25 gold coins.

I'm not sure how Facebook works. I only made one for a study group and we ended up not even using it. I think this is the link to my profile.

Updated that Magic card game when magic tree event wouldn't load. Updated again and now I can't use the map, so I'm pretty much done with that game until an update.

Same thing happened to me. Will let the devs know... Shame that the last 2 updates have been bad in one way or another.

Assassin's Creed - Altair Chronicles : 1.99

Order & Chaos : 2.99

Earthworm Jim HD : .99

Real Soccer : .99

Captain America: TWS : doesn't list price since the demo for two levels is free, no achievements

The Amazing Spider-Man 2 : .99 (no achievements)

The Dark Knight Rises : 2.99

I tried to buy Amazing Spider-Man 2 but it's not available for my device... My Lumia 1520. What the crap?
Click to expand...
Interesting, I tried to see if I could buy it (already have it on my Kindle though) and I guess I don't have enough room on my phone for it right now, so I couldn't go through on the purchase screen. I would think the 1520 would be able to play it though.

Only one I tried was the Earthworm Jim demo, the controls are a little awkward and not nearly as good as the 360 version, but I made it through the first level at least.

This.

Also anyone care to share an opinion on Order and Chaos? I'll go and check WP Central for a review.

EDIT: Found the review, decided to give it a go.

Gets really hot fast. On 1020, I couldn't touch the back of my phone it got so hot. The actual game is ok. I was only playing it for at most 20 minutes at a time so my phone wouldn't explode and that is not enough time for MMORPG games. Eventually I stopped playing. It'd probably be more fun if you had friends to play with.

I wouldn't have paid full price if I'd known that it would be free a few months after I bought it. Before buying any of the games on sale, check if there is a free version that works on your phone. Looks like this is still going on for me http://www.wpcentral.com/nokia-free-gameloft-games-promotion

I'm finally into the 1GB RAM phone bracket! Upgraded from a 521 (512 mb RAM) to a 925 with T-Mobile yesterday. Unfortunately the 925 is not eligible to get the games free but those sales prices aren't too bad. I'll grab a couple.

No problem, almost bit on N.O.V.A but both the controls and space needed are making me think that I won't get it, hope you enjoy them though!

Just bought it (after clearing a bunch of room on my phone :/) and it works pretty well on the 8xt, after about 30 mins to an hour of messing around in game to see how hot it got, my phone only really got warm but not bad enough where I didn't want to hold it, which is nice.

The controls are going to take some getting used to however, made me hold off on N.O.V.A since I don't think I'll like a shooter much on the phone, but with an MMO it's slower paced and there really aren't any on Xbox that I want to play yet.

 
It seems Real Soccer (2013) is now available to 512MB phones. They must be trying to cash in on the world cup to go to the trouble of doing this. The 800MB download size however keeps me far far away from this one.
