Dungeon Hunter 4

Found a new Android Game to entertain myself now. Dungeon Hunter 4.

It’s a Dungeon Crawler and has some nice graphics. A bit hungry on the CPU so has a tendency to jump on older hardware, but has a decent storyline (so far), and there’s VOICES, and as an additional bonus, I’m not hearing many American accents. I picked a Warmage as my character as I have thing for mages, and even though the game is freemium, I haven’t had the need to really spend much money on it, and there’s not many features that demand you to buy in-app purchases to continue. The only one that does is the Wheel of Fate which is a gambling game, anyway. Plus you can play the lowest rung (Bronze level) for free once a day.

I’m L13 at the moment, enjoying it, even if I do die on a couple of higher-level dungeons.

Oh, also, shoutout to anyone who knows the significance of my character’s name. ;-)

 

Google rolling out ‘I’m feeling lucky radio’ to Play Music on Android and the web

I saw this on the latest update to Play Music the other day. Must say, I’m enjoying it.

The Sims FreePlay

I’ve just started play The Sims FreePlay on my Android tablet. It’s a Freemium game (i.e. it’s free, but you have option in-game purchases) and I have to think that the people at EA seem to have some dark humour. Here’s an example. I planted some tomatoes, which have a high XP, but only if they grow. And that’s a big IF. Tomatoes, like some of the other items in the game have a chance to do something else. With some, it’s burning, with others, its spawning a monster. Tomatoes spawns a “Sim-eating Monster” and the only option is to “Negotiate” with it. Which then turns into a fight, and within the fight, you get your sim in a position which looks like s/he is… well, almost doing something a little out of the ordinary…

Zombies, Run! 2 — Supply Missions Are Back!

The latest update for the ZR2 app now re-introduces the Supply Missions from Season 1. These missions are not storyline related and do not end. They go on for as long as you want. When you end the mission, the final audio clip plays. I haven’t checked since the update, but as these are optional, I don’t believe they will give you Materials for your base. Also, in the original ZR app, you could only do supply missions after playing certain missions. For example, you could only play the Fuel Run Supply Mission after the mission where you are introduced to Ed and Molly. Such a restriction is no longer the case.

Desktop Notifications – Android Apps on Google Play

Now you can get notifications right in your browser for things happening on your Android device. Really, REALLY useful if your phone is pretty busy. I know mine can be.

EOS

No, not the camera thingy, this is to do with Android. I just found out about EOS today which is another variant of AOSP by a different team. I’ve had a few problems with CyanogenMod, and I’ve tried AOKP, so I’m going to give EOS a go next and see if that’s any better.

Order and Chaos

I’m playing Order & Chaos on my Android, and I’m planning my build. I’m going to go for a defensive build, which is mainly Permafrost/Frost/Ice-based skills. So after playing with this calculator at OAC, I’ve found that I can max out every skill by the time I hit the cap of L60, except for the two skills which are sleep-spells, and are practically useless – they send the opponent to sleep, and any attacks or skills wake them up again.
