Still think I'd like to revisit it at some point.

Same, though every time I think about revisiting it I just think 'ehhhhhh, I'd rather play something else.'

Had never played it before, but yeah...I'm feeling the same.
Invisible Inc is a massively better port and must-have in everyone's iOS library

Nope, even you don't have an iPad, you should get it anyway so you'll have it when you get an iPadFixed.
(But mainly to show Klei that yes, we want your games on iOS)
(Mark of the Ninja. Klei, pls)

Half serious
But still if you have an iPad, it's a must-play. Invisible Inc is easily one of my favorite stealth games, and one of the best in the genre

That Dragon, Cancer finally downloaded on iPad. Cant wait to check this out.

Decided to try Impossible Road since it's free. Glad it's free because 10 minutes of playing and it got deleted off my phone.

I gather that you didn't figure out how you're really supposed to play?
And... purchased on desktop. Thanks again.
Wow....that's a great game. I assume you didn't like the difficulty? I really enjoyed it, especially with a controller.

How are you really supposed to play?
My issue was that the controls felt heavy. It wasn't a difficulty thing because I absolutely adore Super Hexagon and almost beat every stage of that. Something about this just felt, I don't know, off.

You're supposed to dive off the track and land on lower parts of the path, not stick to the path
Mini Metro is coming to mobile on October 20th:

Not actually that important
It's too bad Super Impossible Road ain't coming to mobile tho, looks incredible on PC
Thanks, looks like it isn't for me.
Simogo is auto-buy for me, can't wait.

I'm pretty far in the SteamWorld Heist campaign, playing on expert: this game continues to amaze me...some levels are really nasty and the mechanics are way deeper than I thought.
A ton of different characters too.
Quest progression and map reminds me a lot the original PuzzleQuest.
What an awesome game, I really recommend it when it will be out.
Also, headshotting an enemy with a sniper after two bounces on the walls never gets old.
Awesome, straight on my top games of the year list...and surprisingly so because I never heard about the game before.....I'm so happy when these kind of things happen
My only 'regret' is the timing....I also have Banner Saga 2 and I'm dying to buy Invisible Inc.

I discovered about status/location damage by accident. Game does have a nice amount of depth
Ricocheting headshots never get old

I wrote something some posts ago, I'm playing it too (sigh, too many games...but perfect when I want some action).
I'm loving it, great platformer/brawler, usual Halfbrick polish.

The only major negative I think of with Invisible Inc is the long load times to generate missions

Haven't even started Invisible Inc. yet, still need to try Spingun, and apparently Dan the Man ain't half bad as well. Gah, why you do this to me iOS?

And we still got Mini Metro coming this month, and who knows what else. This month is already excellent
Yeah, they are pretty long.

I got Reins and it seems cool, but is there any way to know how decisions will affect things? It's not clear to me whether the bars represent the strength of the different factions or their opinion of me. I guess it's both and just depends on the specific scenario? I'm running into a lot of situations where a decision has the opposite effect than I expect.
Edit: I picked up Severed too and damn does it look awesome on a 7+. Really glad I went with the bigger size, it's great playing games on the larger screen.

You are forgetting The Bug Butcher on the 20th
Yeah, felt the same way. Turning off 3D Touch in the settings helped if you have that, but it still took some time to get used to the controls. It's pretty good once you get the hang of it.
Could barely get around the first corner at first, but after some practice I've got a high of 66.

The Bug Butcher and Egzzzzz con the 20th BUT the sequel to one of the best iOS games is soft launching on the 13th!!!! Eeeeekk!!!! Tentacles!!!! Yay *GLORIOUS*
*GLORIOUS*Don't hear iOS board games talked about much here, but I just picked up Twilight Struggle for iPad. Man, that game,and its implementation on iPad, is fantastic! If you are interested in checking out one of the highest rated boardgames of all time, this is a great way to do it. Very polished (as always by Playdek).

Yep. Looking forward to Tentacles: Enter the Mind. Took long enough. Came out two years ago on Windows phones.

Tried Dan the Man but found it pretty generic. Has tons of polish but overall doesnt feel fresh or new. Felt like I played this game before
Yeah I tried it on a friends phone and loved it, now its my time to play it!!! *GLORIOUS*

Just finished the game and four stars from hitting 100%, it's been an absolute blast. I haven't played through a game so fast in ages and I've been thoroughly enjoying it. Can't recommend it enough.

SteamWorld Dig was a fantastic game that I loved a lot, same as Mines of Mars. Heist should be as good. Looking forward to that

Going to download Treasure Buster, the icon looks too good to pass... lets see if I still have the same taste in games as M_B
Ahaha, I've been eyeing it too. Let us know what you think!

Another lifeline is coming out.
Isn't it like two months before the last one? Although games like that doesn't need much time at all to make, hopefully it's a direct sequel to Crisis Line, I have a feeling that it might be.

At this rate, the Lifeline series is the Five Nights At Freddie's of iOS
Kind of getting ridiculous. The first one was okay but seems like it's gone downhill from there. But they sell so....
Never really got the fascination with FNAF either. Played the first one and just didn't see the appeal. Neither scary or fun IMO.

Hey I will loudly proclaim my love for the series as long as people doing the otherwise
and I will buy them as long as they make them. The latest entry really is the high point for me, however I do hope that they don't drag on the stories for too long. Hell Whiteout even introduced a completely new setting apart from the greens.
BH Monday is awesome! What are the IAP aside from the other ship types?
So far the ad stuff is totally manageable and you can completely skip them if you don't mind a little less AP. Compared to the free version of something like leap day it's super unobtrusive. Really happy with that.
At the end of chapter two! I might have a new favourite genre to get into more seriously.

Only ship types (homing and shielding, then search and lock-on)
Well, I think. More stuff could be revealed later
I imagine most people in the thread have long since stopped playing Into the Dead (assuming you ever started), and I haven't posted about many updates in the last couple of years. But I wanted to bring attention to this latest one.
We added a tiger and have a fundraising campaign to save tigers in the real world!

This seems like a very interesting, eerie, and atmospheric puzzler
