    Monument Valley is Amazon's free app of the day. Fantastic game.

    Cheers lads for the heads up on Monument Valley. To call it a game does it discredit its more like interactive artwork. Stunningly beautiful. Hope the new levels for Android arnt too long in the making.

    I swear I nearly had a zen like moment on the water tower level......


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,088 ✭✭✭✭BonnieSituation


    I played the first 4 levels earlier on. It's stunning.

    What's the best photo editing app I could get for a tablet?

    Just a day after Amazon’s monumental giveaway of Monument Valley, it seems there is even bigger news in store: the Amazon Appstore that is. Ustwo, the game’s publisher, has announced (via Polygon) that Forgotten Shores, the recently released iOS expansion to Monument Valley, will launch on the Amazon’s mobile market today (November 20th), where it will remain a temporary exclusive. Those who wish to wait for the standard Google Play Store edition need only survive the agony until Monday the 24th

    Quote from here


    I will have to wait till Monday, I have the Play version! It's unusual for amazon appstore to have something before play.

    There is only 8 new levels for $1.99 IAP!

    Anybody using the office preview apps?
    I can't believe there going to be pushing these out for free, after using them I'm well chuffed to get the ms office functionality on the go with a tablet.

    I'm not a big game player and tend to stick to a few old favourites but Monument Valley just blew me away. I'm in awe of the imagination of the people who come up with this stuff.

    Stick Hero. Frustratingly brilliant!

    Can anyone recommend and app for viewing files stored on a NAS ?
    NAS is a Raspberry Pi with HDD attached

    I want to view photos and maybe play videos stored on my NAS using either a Samsung Galaxy S4 or a an S3 mini

    I use ES File Explorer for browsing to my NAS and playing videos etc.

    Lazors is a nice little puzzle game, free but the only IAPs are for more Hints, not seeing any ads but I have AdAway so there might be some. :)

    It's the first time in a long time that I finished a game and was disappointed.

    I was disappointed in how short it was. I'd be a bit pissed if I paid, what €5? I thought it was very easy too, excellent idea and style, but too short and easy IMO

    New Humble Bundle from the excellent Crescent Moon games....

    Crescent Moon. Full bundle. While the moon might not be a full one, we've filled this bundle to the brim with Android games. And with potential bonuses ready to be unlocked, this bundle is ready to burst at the seams. Pay what you want for Space Chicks, 2-Bit Cowboy, Neon Shadow, and Ravensword: Shadowlands. Pay more than the average price, and you also get Topia World Builder, Shadow Blade, Mines of Mars, and Blocky Roads. Pay $8 or more to get all of that plus the alpha versions of The Deer God and Exiles: Far Colony and the full games once they're released.
