Houston, TX #4 slewis7, Dec 10, 2014 Game Impressions I dusted off my seldom used NZ App Store login to grab this early. The first handful of levels are pretty easy, but then things started getting challenging and I am enjoying the game. Even within the first 10 or so levels, there are already some smart strategy elements to the game, beside just looking for long words. While I have played numerous word games, this seems pretty fresh and the story elements are nice too. The overall game presentation is top notch and includes Game Center too. The freemium elements seem pretty innocuous so far, but I am very glad the developers have included an IAP to convert this to a premium game. I am not sure whether that particular IAP is really necessary, but if I find myself playing for long, I will buy it for sure. So far this is looking like a keeper! Nicely done! aconfusedkender Well-Known Member Sep 28, 2012 1,362 122 63 Oil & Gas Kendermore, Ansalon #5 aconfusedkender, Dec 10, 2014 If I get it from the NZ store now can I keep my data when I DL it from the US App Store? Or should I just be a patient grasshopper... Also how much is the premium unlock to kill ads? binlabu Well-Known Member Dec 3, 2014 433 0 0 HO CHI MINH CITY , VIET NAM https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCjmmjgzHZu-YUVtd0i2oKRA #6 binlabu, Dec 10, 2014 Gameplay Subscribe to the TouchArcade YouTube channel L.Lawliet Well-Known Member Jun 28, 2011 6,405 420 83 #7 L.Lawliet, Dec 10, 2014 This is probably the most interesting thing I've seen today! Releases today don't look very good tbh. I'd love an early code if the dev still has one.

We and Fallen Tree worked hard at trying to do a fair balance on both f2p and premium. Hopefully players key into whatever method they like best.

Houston, TX #11 slewis7, Dec 10, 2014 The "Premium" IAP is $2.99. I downloaded this using my NZ account, so I am unable to buy any IAP for it using my US account (the one with funding). I guess I will quit playing for now, since I will have to delete the game and re download from the US store as I want to buy the premium IAP. This is a superb word game! Ryan_Noodle Well-Known Member Patreon Gold Jan 29, 2013 403 5 18 Biz guy at Noodlecake Studios Saskatoon #12 Ryan_Noodle, Dec 10, 2014 It is $2.99. This turns off all ads and removes the lives/energy system as well. Plus the premium gem currency values all shift to better balance it without needing to purchase any. Also on a side note, try and see if you can spell the words Touch and Arcade in the same level.

Qwertz555 Well-Known Member May 22, 2010 2,318 29 48 #16 Qwertz555, Dec 11, 2014 I tried so many word games and always got lost at some (early) point due to my english knowledge (swiss german native). I'm sure this game won't be different. But...since i only learn a bit more everytime i play, or keep what i know at least, it's time again to support another great passionate Dev(s), who provided me with so many free games/codes in the past. Payback time - bought the full game. This game hooked me right from the beginning with beautiful music, great art style, a little story, atmosphere, responsive controls and a top-notch presentation...congrats ! It might not be your genre, folks, but not trying out this free gem could be a little mistake. PS: my nit-picking subject for my last two paid games - as long as this game's title is, a simple Highrise under the icon shows me that they planned everything to the last point. That's what i call passionate AND professional. Ryan_Noodle Well-Known Member Patreon Gold Jan 29, 2013 403 5 18 Biz guy at Noodlecake Studios Saskatoon #17 Ryan_Noodle, Dec 11, 2014 Wow Qwertz thanks for the kind words! I will be sure to pass it on to the team over at Fallen Tree Games as this is their baby. We just helped with some of the final touches on it. Really glad you enjoyed it and are wiling to spread the word. No pun intended Im the same way. I usually dislike word games but played this through twice! L.Lawliet Well-Known Member Jun 28, 2011 6,405 420 83 #18 L.Lawliet, Dec 11, 2014 Production values on this game are crazy good. The UI is gorgeous. Only gripe is with the icon.. Imo it seems a bit cluttered. Too much stuff on it.. Faces, tower, logo. It's not as bad as i make it sound but the design inside the game looks really amazing in contrast. I'm also assuming you don't have any updates planned since it's just 90 levels and that's that. aeranth Well-Known Member May 8, 2012 91 0 6 #19 aeranth, Dec 11, 2014 Eagerly looking forward to diving into this one. Seems like a no-brainer, Fallen Tree Games produced the Quell series, couldn't have a more sterling provenance in my book. sugimulm Well-Known Member Aug 28, 2010 2,457 46 48 The last time zone for iOS game releases :( #20 sugimulm, Dec 11, 2014 Bought the premium package, awesome game and great job!
