    The Midnight Mysteries and Samantha Swift games are iPad and Mac only. All of MumboJumbo's games are $.99 right now, and there are quite a few for the iPhone/iPod touch as well.

    GUESS WHAT? I'm still getting the "modified" error for an app that went free. Grrrr I responded to the apple person who was so kind to let me know that she noticed that I was finally able to download Tin Tin. Did she fail to notice that I had to gift it to myself in order to get it?!?!

    Anyway, I took screen shots of errors to show her this is an ongoing issue affecting people globally (yes, I mentioned the Apple support forums). I also reported Father Simmons along w the other 2 titles hoping to keep her busy:) Not crossing any fingers.

    The sad reality is that this is either a really tough issue for them to track down or they don't plan on doing anything about it, because after 2 weeks I'm sure they have enough data to know what they are looking for. I have had a similar experience where the tech person has pointed out that they saw downloads on my account. They do seem to miss the point that even if we are able to download something eventually, it's the fact that it might take us a day or two in the first place that's the problem.


    I definitely wouldn't hold my breath on this one. Best case is that she will send you to the same link my tech sent me to (I think I posted it somewhere in this thread). It's basically another support avenue that is more generic than the iTunes support, and it even promises that while you should rest assured they read every email, chances are good you won't hear back from them.

    Um, yeah, she's nuts. I think she must be married to this tech guy I talked to from Comcast a few months ago. My internet was working completely fine except that I could not send email from my Comcast account (I have 3 other emails and they were all okay). He went so far as to tell me they would have to delete my account to fix the problem. Thankfully it cleared itself up before he made that ridiculous mistake!

    Have you sent the lady the link to the discussion on their own forum? Also, I'd be happy to talk with her if you want to give her my email.

    Drawn: Dark Flight HD (Full) is on sale for $2.99 right now. I bought the collector's edition of this on the PC and have loved every minute that I've played so far. I will say that I had to ask for help on a couple of the puzzles, as they tend to be on the difficult side. Still, lots of fun and great artwork.

    They're talking about PC / Mac games, not iPad games ;)
     
  9. Dream:scape is on sale. Heard mixed things about it, and don't even have room for the lite version bc of TinTin (gonna have to finish it and delete it bc it's so damn big!). Any of you play it? Impressions?

    I would say the story is better than the game. There isn't really a lot of puzzles to do and they are quite simple. I loved it for the scarecrow, the story and the atmosphere. I didn't encounter any bugs that I can remember. If its 69p then get it. I paid full price on release and wasn't disappointed

    Okay, you talked me into it :) This was on my list to buy anyway, and I had already pretty much heard everything as you've described it, but since you recommend it I'll bite. Besides, with as long as it will take me to actually get to playing it, even if I don't like it I will probably forget that it was your suggestion :rolleyes:
     
  13. I was trying to see if Infinity Blade 2 has cloud support for save data and accidentally deleted my progress (thought the arrow pointing backwards meant back to the menu, not delete game. :/). So I deleted it and downloaded dream:scape lite. It is a pretty game, seems like it was inspired by Epic Citadel. But the controls are a bit awkward. Like, having to walk into an item to get it instead of tapping it. Never sure whether I'm supposed to be able to get an item. Or how to use it (like the hammer). I'll give it a bit more time today and see if I feel like buying the full game.

    I haven't played Cause of Death yet, but the Gamebook Adventure series are great CYOA games. They do have some role playing elements to them, but the stories are extremely well written and they will last you a while.
