Ugh, I deleted Contest of Champions but it sounds like they've balanced the game a bit more. Not sure if I should jump back into it. I've been playing a lot of Spider-Man Unlimited instead.

Have they fixed the issues with the never-ending loading screens?

Oh was that an issue before too? It seemed ok UNTIL this latest update with alliances, and I assume their servers were just getting hammered. Since then it's been almost unplayable. I should've mentioned that...

I went ahead and downloaded it again. If you start an alliance I'll join it.

Now I wish I hadn't deleted it in the first place. I had several three star characters.

Ok, in Contest of Champions I created one called Dvdtalkers (tag is DVD). I had to spend some chips to create, but hopefully you don't have to spend to join, though I really have no idea.

Okay, I requested to join. Also, I was able to recover my characters! Pretty sweet.

Some current highly rated freebies include:

Slayin'
Cubic!
Sentinel 4: Dark Star
Omicron HD

And if you can find the card at Starbucks, the super highly praised Monument Valley. My local Starbucks never has these cards, so if anyone finds an extra I'd love a code please.

I'm really loving Alto's Adventure. Picked it up when it was .99 but its worth 1.99.

I already sent one to Trevor, but here are some other Starbucks codes. Please post if you use one.

Used J9K44FFRKEHF Thank you!

Thanks again David, you're a gentleman and a scholar.

Anyone been playing Lara Croft: Relic Run?

Typical runner game, but it's damn addicting. I still haven't killed the T-rex. Got him down to a sliver of health and he ran away.

Don't know if anyone cares, but I downloaded goblin sword recently and been loving it so far.



I normally can't stand platforming/fighting/shooting games on the iphone because of the awful touch controls, but it controls really well. I never feel like my death is the fault of the controls.

It's like metroid and mega man in that you gain new abilities that changes the gameplay and levels. It's .99, normally 1.99.

I tried random heroes/villians, and didn't think the controls worked very well or the game was very good, but this game really surprised me.

So for the past couple of months or so, I've been writing my own iOS game, and today is the day it is finally available on the appstore! Wordhue -- it's a colorful take on word find games.

It's 99 cents, but there are no ads or in app purchases. Here are a couple of promo codes in case anyone wants to check it out:

JFARWYTT6N99
3JEANRA94JWK
TKT33KTHH796
TJPAPTFWYTXT
A7HP9RWKMKR7

Thanks Joe! I used TKT33KTHH796; a nasty lurker used the one below that.

I'll check it out and give you some feedback.

Sweet! Thanks, Joe! I used the 2nd code, 3JEANRA94JWK, which I was surprised to see available 4 hours later.

I'm all about these kinds of games and always looking for something new to check out!

Congrats, JB!

Surprisingly I just redeemed JFARWYTT6N99, the first code. Thanks JB. I'll be sure to give it a good review. Best of luck to you.

Thanks guys!! after just a 1/2 day, WordHue is already at #45 on the paid word games chart! Woo hoo!

I was able to use the last one. Nice game, I'll do a review later as well.

Hey, for what it's worth, I really dig your game, joe. It's familiar to everyone but different enough in how it gives you an idea of where you're concentrating on a particular letter or set of letters. I've only played a handful of times, but I've been enjoying it.

Once the "Red Tile Master" achievement, my goal became getting them all. I wonder if it's even possible to get "Purple Master"! Have you?

I have, but then again, I can cheat and make it accept any word I want

Your game accepted "SHART".

But not "SHALL".

yeah, the dictionary is a bit lame, but luckily I can add words to it easily. I manually told it to accept SHART

I found out today how many sales I actually made yesterday ... 13! lol. It's gonna be a long road to prosperity!

Piņata's currently #3 on the worldwide leaderboards. I'm pretty impressed.
Edit : maybe a little less impressed if that's 3 out of 18.
Fun game. Are you docked a turn if they don't accept a word? Sometimes I can't make a word and I don't know what to do since if I back out, you can't deselect that first letter you touched.
