    Just happened on this thread - getting the sampler. I'm hoping I'll like it, and will get a couple of the other episodes.

    Edit after going through the free sample.

    Phenomenal! Needs some promotion however you can get it, but I think your coverage is first rate.

    [​IMG]

    It’s with great excitement that we announce the release of Episode 6 of Grab It – The Game Discovery App. It’s out right now and you can grab it here. It’s jam-packed with hours upon hours of exclusive insights into the world of indie gaming on iPad.

    Our cover feature is on Magic 2015 and the Magic: The Gathering brand as a whole. We spoke directly with Wizards of the Coast on the 21-year history of the series that started the Collectable Card Game craze - now one of the most popular genres on the App Store. Find out how the tabletop experience has become a digital sensation and influenced an entire genre. Magic: The Gathering tournament judge Matt Baird also shares his tips to improve your card battling ability.

    We also have detailed feature on Tin Man Games, with the Australian developer spilling the beans on how it has almost singlehandedly reinvented the Gamebook for a modern generation, compliments of its excellent work on original material and remakes of famous titles like Fighting Fantasy. We even detail the Top 10 Gamebooks on iPad, so you can dive right in and get playing.

    Our third big feature comes in the form of an exclusive interview with Mark McDonald, CEO of Appster, one of the fastest growing app development companies on the planet. He offers some extraordinary insights into the mechanics of IAPs and app monetisation, as well as some essential advice on how to set-up an indie studio and release an indie game in a manner that will be successful.

    We also have episode 3 of our exclusive behind-the-scenes look at the development of 2015 feature film Rise of the Indies by the great documentarians at GameLoading, led by Lester Francois.

    This is just the start of what this blockbuster issue holds. There are 12 showcased games in all, 9 exclusive interviews, reviews, previews, news, opinion, videos, soundtracks and plenty more. Get amongst it, and grab it now.

    Episode 7 of Grab It Out Now

    I'm happy to report that Episode 7 of Grab It is out right now for iPad - you can grab it here.

    We always like to jam a stack of world exclusives into an episode, and we have a couple of stompers to check out in episode seven.

    First up is our cover game, Tiny Troopers Alliance. The third instalment in this 7.5m selling series from Kukouri Mobile Entertainment takes the cute little army dudes with a penchant for graphic violence into new territory, offering a completely online fight for global supremacy. We have the world exclusive making of feature on the whole Tiny Trooper series, from the developer’s origins, right through to the motivations behind this latest title and beyond.

    Equally as cool, we feature Midnight Star. It’s made by Industrial Toys, a developer founded by Alex Seropian – the man who founded Bungie and went on to make a little FPS called Halo: Combat Evolved. He is setting out to reinvent the genre yet again by delivering it to touchscreens in a manner we’ve never seen before. We talk in depth with Alex, and another Halo veteran Paul Bertone, about the game, the state of indie development and his famous past, with stacks of exclusive behind the scenes images, video and music.

    We also take a detailed look at the history of Grand Theft Auto on iPad, and what we can anticipate into the future. And this is just the start of hours of entertainment. We have 17 games showcased in this episode, 5 exclusive interviews, the top 10 crossover RPGs available on iPad, detailed explorations of MTN and The Witcher Adventure Game, and much, much more.

    Enjoy!

    Here is the launch trailer.
