    I didn't realise that Android version has even more artifacts! I have just installed Pocket Mine 2 on a spare phone, logged in with facebook (so I had my account) and I got a Legendary artifact from "Tiki figures collection" as well as a Teddy Bear from "May Mine" collection!

    There used to be 258 start, now there are 276! This means that 18 stars were added (which is 2 new collections) :D

    For a few reasons, we're releasing Android updates first (mostly because the approval system is much faster with Google).

    However, the game isn't perfectly backward compatible yet (it will be in a near future.) It means that if you get new content on a newer version of the game and then sync back (with Facebook) your progress on an older version, you might lose that new content.

    We don't recommend playing on different version of the game for the moment.

    Still absolutely loving this game! It's so much fun. The progression / factor & card mechanics are great. Adds awesome replay value.

    Even the daily events are fun!

    Yeah, when I switch back to iOS I don't have new artifacts, but I keep my levels, items etc. Then when I switch back to Android I have my new artifacts back :)

    All in this game is fun ;) btw devs, what's the friend number cap? Someone tried to add me and said I was already full and couldn't accept any more friends. I'm going to check now if/how I can add him. EDIT: I have 180 friends, so it's impossible I can add him, I have to go below 50 to add him, and I'm not kicking out 131 people :p

    From now on, people can't have more than 50 friends. But it wasn't the case at launch. A few (mostly TouchArcade users) have this "too many friends" problem.

    Mmmm... Maybe that's why I get friend problems sometimes. I have a bug in which sometimes the high scores of friends don't load, and my score is the only score available on the board. Tbh it's when the game performs better and I suffer less game crashes. From a devs point of view, should I kick out 130 people so that the game becomes more stable?

    Wish I'd known this earlier. I finished playing on my galaxy s4 and had 58 rubies, loaded my ipad up his morning and only had 5. Could this be why? I'm guessing I can't restore the purchase for rubies? Suppose I'll suck it up. I'm just gonna stick with playing on android as it's more stable anyway and the prices are a lot cheaper.

    Just curious as to how it affects gifting? If I sent a new artifacts to an ios friend will it mess with their save file? A little icon on the friends list to show what platform they use would be great. Run In Crowd did something like that.

    I got one of the hidden achievements, but I'm still missing one too. Is is the one just below "Help Friends"? Could it have something to do with finishing all the islands?

    I am also missing this one. I have finished all the islands. I hope someone tells us how to get it.

    EDIT:
    Lol... found it by a total accident. You simply need to build a 50m ladder :>>

    It should not affect the rubies. It's a bug if your rubies haven't synced properly. Please contact us at [email protected], we'll send you back what you lost. It really affects gears/cards/artifacts not present in one of the version. If you request (or sent) a new artifact to someone on an older version, the request will be hidden on your friend device, until he updates.

    It would definitely help! We should had put a limit right at the start. We have underestimated the popularity of friend codes :)

    @talf: thanks for the heads up :) I'll definitely put my friend list in order then, because I suffer too many crashes at the end of runs.

    Is there a particular mine that is easier for grinding money? They all seem about the same to me so far.

    @talf, could you please explan how rare the Legendary artifacts actually are? I have been playing the game a lot recently and I've managed to accumulate almost every star (except for "New Year" and "Lowlands" levels, and of course Legendary).

    After having collected hundreds of artifacts needed to max my stars I only got a few legendary artifacts (4 pottery artifacts and around 15 celtic symbols). Are there any tips for collecting them? They are like SUPER rare.

    My setup:
    Character:
    - Jane

    Cards:

    - 100% more treasure crates
    - 100% chance for a bonus artifact
    - crate radar (maxed)

    Gear:
    - (headgear) +35% to find rarer artifacts
    - (gloves) 70% more crates
    - (boots) +35% to find rarer artifacts

    You are on the right path with this setup, but yeah Legendary artifacts are Super rare.

    "New year" and "Lowlands" were 2 specials events available in early February. We're planning to schedule new events with these locations in a near future.
