    @Squall

    I play Star Trek: Timelines.

    My wife is a big Trek fan, so she makes the decisions when I advance the story line. Otherwise I grind at that game in my NML downtime.

    And that game is even more of a grind than NML. Many more character slots, each character has 4 gear slots that are consumed every 10 levels to advance them to the next set of 10 levels, and each gear could have a recipe to create it that may require as few as 1 step or as many as 5 steps before the final needed item is ready.

    Pokemon Go. Very different game, but keeps me amused on my walk to/from work. I live in a big city, so there's always a lot of Pokemon and stops.

    People still play Pokemon Go?

    This is a serious question.

    Someday i might try that game :smiley:

    @JayZ
    That's still a popular game in my country too! At the peak of its glory, people willing to find pokemon from midnite till early morning in public area. I used to play but only short of moment :blush:

    I also play Timelines.

    Holy mother I find the complaints on these boards HILARIOUS compared to what's going on over there. Required items you couldn't get because they weren't in any of the missions, resources restricted to paying players that prevent you from playing 2/3 of the game, events requiring special characters being run without enough notice to get characters out of a vault because you need the resource you have to pay for, so even if you paid for it then you can't get it back without paying again...

    Don't get me wrong, I enjoyed it, but I've got 105 crew slots, I can't even remember C-List, let alone the random aliens I'm keeping just in case maybe someday I need a Jem'Hadar or whatever to unlock one node of a mission. I can't justify spending more money there.

    It took me a few days to realize that you can get everything in this game without paying. In useful amounts. Shockingly generous, by comparison.

    Oh well, not everything, but most of it. All kind of developer games have a business to run and entertain all of us.

    I also play BIA 3, loves the graphic. But my main game still NML :smiley:

    @MLH

    Right now, the only money I spend is the daily Dilithium bundle. As long as you have the patience to wait for the Dilithium to accumulate, it is the best deal, as far as I'm concerned. Granted, I have dropped a little bit of cash on the bigger Dilithium bundles when I was in need of more crew slots very quickly or risk losing the new crew I just picked up, but that's been it.

    I enjoy the grind of that game. While it can be incredibly daunting when you have a boatload of crew members, being able to level up crew through small steps makes it feel like you're achieving something on a steady basis rather than being required to have huge jumps to see success.

    But you're right about the frustration of needing specific crew to unlock certain nodes. I encountered one early on, I think I needed a Ferengi, and had none, but eventually I picked one up and was able to finish off that mission. It is most definitely a game that requires a lot of patience to find success.

    I'm glad this thread popped back up. I was curious if anyone here played The Walking Dead card collecting game that pops up in my ads. As for me, the only app game I play is TWD:NML. On my tablet though, I do play some purchased games against the AI; Lords of Waterdeep, Pandemic, Small World 2 and Ticket To Ride. Now if we are talking board games when I meet up with my brothers, that is too long to list.

    @masmith93 Nice! What level are you? My enthusiasm for the game has started to die down ever since I hit level 30.

    @JayZ 29.5. They need to infuse some excitement into the game, Esp for those of us in cold climates. Nearly impossible to play.

    Astronest...it has some flaws, but I find I am more willing to pay some cash because they give away a lot more free stuff. I played for maybe 5 months or so, and spent about $50 (and maximized my purchase by doing it during the holiday sales). I don't feel nearly as much hard sell and manipulation. Easy to get refills on AP (star gas), and I don't have the same problem of constant game crashing on my ipad2 as with nml. Lately there have been some issues of lag, but its not nearly as bad as I've experienced with nml, which I can barely play anymore. It is not a high graphics arcade game, but a thoughtful strategy game. The chat function for the whole server on your side is a nice touch and works much better than the limited guild chat in nml. When the game lags, the chat doesn't.

    @Dodkong
    Agreed about the monthly. The anniversary event finally put me in a good position for crew slots, and I got that third shuttle I'd been dreaming about.

    As for levels, I find that I don't have the patience to attempt missions until I know I can crit them, and once done I warp them for items instead of replaying for xp.
  • JayZJayZ Member Posts: 3,650
    @masmith93 agreed - it's too bad they don't have weekend events like NML - that would definitely get me out and about more often

    Walking Dead Card Games? Never seen that before in my ads :open_mouth:
  • DodkongDodkong Member Posts: 1,048
    @BttlOpener

    I've seen the Lords of Waterdeep app game. Have you played the board game version? If so, how similar are the two? I have the board game version, but hesitated to buy the app game because I love the board game version so much and didn't want to be disappointed by a lame app game version.

    @MLH

    Yeah, I got my fourth shuttle maybe two months ago, which has been great. I love the faction mission events, and with the 4th shuttle, I've been able to score two versions of the 4 star crew in the reward ladder. That has been a great investment for me.

    And yeah, I don't bother with story missions unless I'm crit'ing them, get it, get the stars and move on. Then I always warp the mission when I need the items. I find that it's a waste of time to chose the crew and then make the necessary choices during the mission.

    Have anyone ever played AMC TWD social game: chronicles on facebook?

    @Dodkong Yes, I have played the board game, many times. Our house rules are only one mandatory quest per person at a time and each players is dealt 3 lord cards and chooses one, before turning over quests or buildings. We also, now, only play with both expansions. I have had the app since October 2015 and have over 230 games played. I only play on hard and heads up with the computer . The AI can be a bit predictable at times. Otherwise, I am very pleased with the app.
