    Yeah it's a cracker. I'm up to level 118 (at the end of the 3rd island) and I'm not even half way through the game... (just over 160 levels left) :)

    Anyone else encountering a bug on the later levels where the level unintentionally repeat themselves? :(

    It's annoying as I want to do the New puzzles.

    I'm at 140 and no issues yet. When did you hit trouble?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 26,578 ✭✭✭✭Turtwig


    180 or 190.
    It's not even the same level as last session. It's like the game remembers what level map wise I'm on but loads a much earlier puzzle. That doesn't correspond to the location on the island. :(

    €0.85

    I've had this on my watchlist for a while. Price was just under five euro. Good reviews and positive feedback don't always translate to a large number of downloads, unfortunately.

    A steal at this price. A grim subject matter (World War I), approached in a well managed.. satisfying and sobering manner.

    Artwork reminds me a bit of the European artist, 'Tardi'.

    I've got to there and no issues so far. Fingers crossed.

    TwoDots is a great little game.

    Great game for that price.

    TwoDots is a great little game.

    I got to about level 78 and had enough. With fireballs and ice on the same level, there was too much reliance on luck (and/or in app purchases). Great up to then, though...

    I'm stuck on level 14.

    Drawing squares is the key to finishing most levels....

    Figured that out about two levels ago.

    If it wasn't for getting three colours and sinking 10 anchors in 20 moves.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 55,741 ✭✭✭✭Mr E


    You have to be a bit strategic with your moves. Think a few moves in advance rather than matching at random... When a time limit is enforced in the third area, that's when it gets really nasty...

    Remember the raft of free amazon coins that some of us availed of earlier in the year, 26 pounds worth I believe?
    Well they expire tomorrow night at 12 so get buying if you still have them and there's anything you're interested in on the amazon app store.
    Any recommendations welcome too.


  • Posts: 8,317 ✭✭✭ George Hissing Ape


    Are they the ones we got for GTA or something like that? Are you sure they're expiring tomorrow night? I thought we had a year from when we got them?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,544 ✭✭✭RichT


    There's £75 of paid apps and games in the Amazon App Store today in a 'Ring In The New Year' promotion.

    Includes AVG Antivirus PRO Android Security (€6.50 in Play Store)

    Cant find an on-line link yet, but just swipe the free app of the day to the left, and there it is.


  • Posts: 8,317 ✭✭✭ George Hissing Ape


    I think this is the link.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 14,380 ✭✭✭✭Banjo String


    Odd one here, Kingdom rush is showing up via the link, I click download and it tells me I now own the app.

    Open app store on my tablet (nexus 7) and it's not among the apps listed, and when I go in to my apps in cloud it's not there either (just goes from J to L)

    Anyone any ideas?


  • Posts: 8,317 ✭✭✭ George Hissing Ape


    I was after that game as well but it wasn't listed as compatible with any of my devices (of which there are numerous).

    Yes it's the GTA coins, it said they were expiring the 1st of 2015 if I remember correctly. I asked someone else and they remembered the same so I'm going to spend mine... or try to. :)

    Hey guys,

    Looking for a replacement app for Watchon for the S5 now that Samsung discontinue the app.

    Smart remote just doesn't show the TV guide for UPC only random channels.

    I do switch quite frequent rooms between SKY and UPC

    What are your suggestions?

    Unfortunately yours is a different app:(

    https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.sec.watchon.phone

    and yours doesn't do the S5

    Ah ok, I would have thought the app would have covered any with infrared remote on them, funny enough in my last update they even added an option to a control air conditioning units. (really useful in our 14° summer's) :pac:

    Ahem I think you were mistaken.....

    I was... sorry :(
    I genuinely thought it was the case though, and it was backed up by another person who was also "sure".


  • Posts: 8,317 ✭✭✭ George Hissing Ape


    No bother as I couldn't really find anything to spend my coins on anyway. Also I got very drunk.

    Leos Fortune is still €0.99 and highly recommended.

    As is GTA Chinatown Wars for €2.69.

    That Chinatown Wars wasn't what I expected. It seemed to be like one of the old 2D games, though I didn't play long as I wanted my refund.

    It was built for the Nintendo ds a couple of years ago. It's supposed to look like the old games.

    Finished it twice on the ds, great little game.
