    A bit of everything worked for me. You don't want to fall too far behind on anything. The last room you unlock gives you some modifiers that give you things like more gold or experience at the expense of something else, so you can accelerate things when you get access to it.

    I just registered an account for the cloud service Mega.

    Little did I know I'd be getting 50GBs free storage!

    Mega has been my go to file host for downloading large files a while now and it always maxed out my connection.

    The app has a nice clean gui, and its good as additional storage to Google Drive.

    One drive only comes with 15gbs of free storage in comparison.

    Is that 50gb permanent? I've finished my year of dropbox and into my year of one drive now... 50gb for life would be enough to ditch the rest probably.

    Nope, it expires . I got 50GB Dropbox space before from Samsung and just before it expired I ended up moving all my family connection of photos from Dropbox to Google Drive which was a major hassle. Dropbox really need to wake up to the limited space they offer, it's pushing people to other services, I use it to share files with others but have stopped using it as my own personal cloud storage even though I have 14.5GB.

    I believe he was asking if Mega's 50GB expires not Dropbox's.....I think!

    I was the exact same, I've left my ~30 in dropbox but now I've lost my Samsung space I've moved into OneDrive which has 1Tb free for a year for me. Might actually have to start paying for it some day -_-

    Doesnt matter anyway I finished the game last night, towards the end I couldnt even see what was in front of me I was cutting through enemies so fast, on to You Must build a Boat now.

    I wouldnt trust my files in Mega tbh, Kim dotcom has a target on his back, you could wake up some morning and the website will just be gone.

    I've had it since last Sat.

    Yeah, it's not bad at all, impressed at the speech recognition, my daughter gets great mileage out of it too, she is mesmerized by it.

    "Show me pictures of unicorns"
    "Show me Ben.and Holly"
    "Play one direction songs"

    (She's 4)

    I'm about half way through a second playthrough of YMBAB (you can start again on a harder difficulty after you finish the game). Stupidly addictive and now has a permanent place on my phone.

    I just bought it, I haven't a clue how to play properly and I'm resorting to random swipes hoping for the best :P

    Google firetube

    Thanks for this!

    With the demise of PVSTAR+ and other background player apps i was struggling to find one that actually worked.

    Google seems to be clamping down hard on them.

    This app is nice clean and simple.

    Will FireTube work for non music videos, or does it just scrape music. I liked to use PVSTAR+ to listen to discussion, presentation, spoken word, with the phone screen off.

    Got Hound up and running. Really not very impressive. Struggles a lot and throws up an internet search results more times that it gives verbal answers.
    Nowhere near as fast as the video makes out either.

    Yup, works on any video in youtube.

    Theres even an option to enable / disable video playback in the top right.

    No invite needed apk.
