Don't know. Doesn't appear to be any likely candidates showing up on AppZapp and The Journey Dowm came out in 2012 so despite it having a PG Gold award, it shouldn't be it if they're all for this year.
Might be another one like the first day where it was very late in the day before the app went free.
Slightly disappointed that there's only one quest in Hoplite (there's just the one, right?).
I mean, it's still very replayable and there's some different objectives using the same quest, but it does make me interested in seeing the idea expanded upon. I'd gladly throw some money at them now that I've seen the error in my ways, haha. Very cool game.

Frozen Synapse finally coming to iPhone on January 8th. Separate app

The already awesome Only One was updated with new enemies, new powers, new levels. Plus character classes IAP.
He did make another cool roguelike for 7DRL 2014. If you're interested:

Unfortunately the dev said he didn't have any plans to expand the game

The new Kingdom Rush inspired me to go back and finish up the old ones. Finally finished the campaigns on Hard and cleared up missing achievements.
I'm having troubles with the level with 3 paths... Arcane something something?
The lower left exit is always fucked, especially when those flying things that can multiply by ''eating'' men arrive...
Yeah!
All the levels before were quite easy but this one is giving me troubles.
I think I had like 5-6 barracks or something in my last try, perhaps a bit too much..
And the dragon I need to use more, sometimes I forget it's there even..
Oh well, just have to try again.
Just about to buy Fiz: The Brewery Management Game, it's on sale. Any good?

I think it's good indeed!
Guess I was wrong. The Journey Down it is due to Episode 2 coming out this year. Already had it from a previous drop to free.
I'm probably missing something obvious, but what exactly do you mean by quest? What would a different quest look like?
The Journey Down just went free for Pocket Gamer's advent calendar

I play it everyday due to the daily puzzles. Good game.
It is indeed pretty cool. And thought I'd mention that if anyone by chance also has it on Android, if you download it today through the Amazon App Store you get four free puzzle packs (worth about $4).
You can try:
- Oceanhorn
- Asphalt 8
- Modern Combat 5
- Infinity Blade 3
- Battle Supremacy
And some impressive looking art-styles:
- Skyforce
- Monument Valley
I guess Bioshock and Xcom also fit that first category but they aren't full res and not that impressive compared to some other games.
Thanks. How does Vainglory hold up? I already saw that one. No interest in artsy games, just want to see tech.

Okay, this whole thing is BS. Pocket Gamer did an opinion piece on Apple's censorship of games
http://www.pocketgamer.co.uk/r/iPad/Papers,+Please/feature.asp?c=62961
http://i.imgur.com/TcczbGj.jpg (NSFW)
From Telltale's Wolf Among Us, not censored at all
As PG said, that inconsistency is really ridiculous.

I almost included Vainglory in the list and it is technically impressive but it's from a top down perspective so you see less details.
Oh and I forgot Real Racing 3 which is still quite impressive.

That was already done, kind of, during the whole King trademark thing. Apple rejected it

Oh damn, I alreads put this game down twice, but now I have to play it again. Dang, it is so addicting!

If you enjoyed Pako, got good news for you
They've applied Instagram filters to screenshots of the game and are releasing a filtered Polaroid artbook?
$100 in iTunes for $80 on eBay http://m.ebay.com/itm/261696193320?_mwBanner=1&varId=560563148769

Tempting, but that would probably last me like six years unless I fell into an IAP trap.
More enemies, different scenarios, new heroes, another objective (instead of return de Fleece or go as far as you can go), improved skills and so on.
I'm on the same boat as Heel, it's an awesome fun little game, but that's all it is: little. Without enough content or diversity for my taste to justify returning or going after the achievements.

If you remember, Nitrome is working on a new mobile game, Gunbrick. I didn't realize it's actually a total remake of a flash game they've already made
A massive upgrade in visuals. You can check out the original game here:

Yeah, just like how Icebreaker was. Played the original Gunbrick long ago, it's fun. Totally looking forward to the new one
hahahaha. You get the Post of the Week.
It is a good version and it does more than fits, it feels like it was made for a touch interface. Don't hesitate, go for it!
Oh and the nudity is coming back next week.

Game's out on Steam too, and I bet it'll come to IOS eventually like Mutant Mudds
I wouldn't be so sure. Mutant Mudds needed 4 buttons, Xeodrifter needs 8 plus button combinations, and the lack of the second screen will make things clunky.
Though if it did, it would be very very nice.

Two PC ports on the same day? And on a Friday?! Must be a record
Craft The World: Pocket Edition
https://appsto.re/us/5N-82.i
Here's the PC trailer
http://youtu.be/IZSajOqodRw
I don't what, if any, are the differences between the PC version and pocket edition
Craft The World: Pocket Edition
https://appsto.re/us/5N-82.i
Craft The World is a unique sandbox strategy game, the mix of Dungeon Keeper, Terraria and Dwarf Fortress. Explore a random generated world populated by dangerous creatures, build a dwarf fortress, gather resources, and craft all the items, weapons, and armor you need.

I've never played it. How would it compare to Junk Jack, Terraria?
My main concern is going to be controls. That genre doesn't always translate well to touch controls. But considering it's a "pocket edition", I assume they worked to make the game contol well on mobile
Oh and
It actually felt built for touch from playing it on PC... You don't actually control each dwarf individually, you click what you want to do and it assigns them to that task.
Just played a little bit of it. It's pretty amazing just from the little I've played.
Feature complete with the Steam version = no brainer
Both
Lol
