Ascension: Chronicle of the Godslayer on sale for .99 cents

Anyone play it? Sounds like a decent TCG. Magic on the Ipad seems a little difficult to play when there are a lot of cards on the screen. Anyone have a suggestion for a good TCG game?

From what I've read elsewhere, Magic and Ascension are the best "solo" games if you don't want to multiplayer.

Summoner Wars is considered one of the best multiplayer card games (but pretty weak solo) and is also in the Playdek sale atm, 99c/69p gets you the "Everything Bundle" inside the free to download client.

Might & Magic: Clash of Heroes is out tonight on IOS, supposedly a properly done port of the xbla/pc game with local and online multiplayer.

If you're a fan of the board game Ticket to Ride, the ipad version is pretty awesome. I've never played the game before but always wanted to so I picked it up last week. So much fun.

I work in a hunting camp for 3 months of the year with no access to the outside world. Last year I had Ticket to Ride on my iPad and decided to give it a shot with 2 of the other people in camp one night. It became our favorite way to pass the time for 2 solid months of camp. We didn't play properly, I learned afterwards. We kept the screen so everyone could see it, meaning we all could see the routes everyone was trying to accomplish and sabotage each other. It was a blast.

Run it once so it generates the correct file structure within the documents folder of the app.

Downloadthisand use it to be able to navigate your ipad/phones directory structure and go to gridlee/documents and find the roms folder in there and dump your rom zips like you would on the normal pc version.

Enjoy.

p.s. If you are jailbroken there's an even better emu that has wiimote+ classic controller support. Once my warranty is out on my ipad3 and if they've sorted it by then I'll break mine deffo. A mate has an icade controller he got cheap and he says this release is awesome, knocks the old imame emu that sneaked onto the appstore out of the park.

It looks like there might be some issues with the port:

"on iPad, where notwithstanding its rough edges, Clash of Heroes is still a joy to play. On an iPhone, it's a miniaturised test of patience...
Clash of Heroes is still a must for iPad owners. Its luxurious scope and hypnotic power justify the "premium" price tag many times over. It's very cautiously recommended to iPhone owners with recent phones, gigabytes to spare and tiny fingers (or styli)."

Looks cool but why does it need access to my phone calls/call logs/who I'm talking to?
Nearly every app wants/needs phone access so it can behave properly if you get an incoming call while you're playing it.

Yeah the preview I'd read had only played it on an ipad 3. The SA forum is pretty much split down the middle on this game exactly on those lines, if you have an iphone or an early ipad it's a pile of dogshit. If you have an ipad 3+ it's fantastic. Mini owners seem evenly split between "the controls are terrible" and "I got used to them."

It looks like it's just trying to do too much on an iphone screen but there's so much extra money from universal releases I can understand why they can't resist.

I have a 12 hour flight coming up, so I'm contemplating getting a final fantasy to kill time with on ipad. Any thoughts on which to pick up between 3 and 4?

4. Better story and more interesting characters. 3 has a better job system though (in that you can change their jobs, which you can't do in 4).
