I love the hidden goblin. What does the turtle do? Re: wifi connection, tons of people on the net saying iOS 6.01 has wifi issues. I found I was getting a sluggish connection at one end of my house so I bought one of these http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/300Mbps-Wireless-N-802-11-AP-Wifi-Range-Router-Repeater-Extender-Booster-UK-Plug-/300734843532?pt=UK_Computing_Boosters_Extenders_Antennas&hash=item4605318a8c (Or just put wifi extender into ebay.) I was sceptical, but it is money well spent. Plugging this in at the end of the house, I now have full bars wherever I go, and you can have as many as you like.
It's so big it brings its own aura from your deck with it, placing the aura behind itself. It can only bring out a Forest , Ocean or Jungle aura. So when played, it might bring out a Wild Strength or Barkskin if those cards are in your deck. It's quite fun. I will leave you to figure out the more amusing ones. Steve @ ThreeGoblins
@Mark: Nice touch with the hidden Goblin Couldn't see it on your original picture, resolution wasn't good enough. @Cat: I read up a bit in the meantime, and found similar stuff like you, i.e. folks complaining about bad Wifi on 6.01 . Repeater is already on my buy list, I was just hesitating because the connection is so crappy that I felt like "oh great, have to put a repeater every 2 meters or so"
Oh no, mine is approx 20m and three rooms away, and it bounces the signal about the same distance again. If you have a full on mansion maybe you would want 2, but one should be loads. The instructions are awful, translated from Chinese-ish. Basically, if you have a WPS button on your modem, press it on the device and modem, then wander off and find somewhere to plug in. Really cheap bit of crappy kit has made a wonderful difference for me! I remember playing you a couple of months back and having to run and sit on the floor by the router
Ps I love that by us chatting crap about wifi repeaters, we keep Spellcraft at the top of the games forums. And no one even moans at us haha.
I wonder what that Goblin is reading there on the turtle... Or shows it just Mark painting new cards with (REALLY good hidden...) Goblins on it? Lol
he's trying to play spellcraft on his ipad but has just realised he needs to posistion a repeater on each turtle fin to get it to sync.
As soon as I have time I will get a repeater. Have my eyes on a bit higher grade equipment than what you got, though But I am not getting my hopes up, had to walk within 2 meters of my router to get a connection this time. And I think the goblin on the Turtle card is Mark, painting a goblin into a Turtle card who is Mark, painting a goblin into... if you manage to touch the last goblin in the sequence, it explodes because of too much Paradox, taking the World Turtle - and thus the match - with it. Instant win Oh yes, iCloud sync: I switched it off again, but still get a rather annoying "Loading" message, that takes anywhere between 1-5 seconds to disappear. Before the iCloud update, I did not have that. Is it really neccessary, when you don't use iCloud sync?
Shein, honestly, take my advice and save your money. My brother just spent £1000 on a state of the art wifi system for his house. I've tried both. For £17 mine gives the same full signal but is more constant than his. I honestly can't believe what a good job that little plug does, and I'm not shy about spending money Spend the £17 first, if you are not happy THEN spend more money. You've got goblin nappies and Air cards to buy, don't waste your money! Sorry I tried to accept your request but you'd already gone.
5 Star game! There may be an issue with Drifting Jellyfish, I had it drift and then latter when I had 5 minions on the board my Jellyfish wouldn't attack there was no minion opposite them and no spells in play, something to look into. Excellent job, buy a booster support these guys!
Zenfar, thank you for your kind words and support! Drifting Jellyfish are actually a barrier, albeit a living barrier, and so will never attack the opponent directly. Regards Steve @ ThreeGoblins
The next update will see some more minor changes to existing cards. All in the name of balance and good fun. Some cards without abilities now have their own little tricks, making them more useful. I decided to list them here, as it's really too much tiny detail for update notes: Melt Cost 1 ---> Cost 0 Fire Rain Cost 4 ---> Cost 3 Inferno Cost 4 ---> Cost 3 Volcano Timer 8 ---> Timer 10 Lava Bombs Timer 15 ---> Timer 12 Pyromancers Strength 1 ---> Strength 2 Pyromancers Spell Immune ---> No Spell Immune Flamespider New Ability ---> As played does 1 damage to opposing minion/barrier Flamespider Elusive ---> No Elusive Flamespider Cost 2 ---> Cost 3 Shadowfiend Health 1 ---> Health 2 Miasma Cost 3 ---> Cost 2 Heart of Darkness Cost 3 ---> Cost 2 Blood Vapour Cost 3 ---> Cost 2 Necromancer Ability cost 1 ---> Ability cost 0 Blood Orb Ability cost 2 ---> Ability cost 0 Absorb Cost 2 ---> Cost 1 Hunt Cost 1 ---> Cost 0 Wall of Stalagmites Health 5 ---> Health 6 Mass Collapse Cost 3 ---> Cost 2 Underdark Wurm Health 5 ---> Health 4 Underworld Elixir Cost 2 ---> Cost 3 Underworld Elixir Ability cost 2 ---> Ability cost 1 Essence Eater Health 3 ---> Health 2 Lost Cost 2 ---> Cost 3 Tentacle Health 4 ---> Health 2 Tentacle Cost 3 ---> Cost 2 Kobo Tunnelrun.. New Ability ---> As played does 1 damage to opposing barrier Darkling Snatcher Ability Target ---> As played steals item from opponent's deck, not an item in play Sunken Treasure Cost 3 ---> Cost 2 Razor Sharks Health 3 ---> Health 2 Triton Ritual Timer 10 ---> Timer 12 Triton Waveriders New Ability ---> Elusive Aquallid Mage Cost 3 ---> Cost 2 Shimmersquid New Ability ---> When destroyed opposing card loses 1 strength Shimmersquid Health 2 ---> Health 1 Water Elemental New Ability ---> As played opposing Fire card gets -1/-1 Water Elemental Quick ---> No Quick Water Elemental Cost 4 ---> Cost 3 Triton Pearldivers Ability ---> Improved to be automatic each turn In anticipation of a question like "More changes? Is this going to happen each update?" Answer: No. But the occasional future alteration is possible. What I strive to avoid is changing an existing special ability of an existing card - that just annoys everyone. When is this lot live? We have decided to submit an update sooner rather than later, even though in-game chat won't' be ready in time for this update. Why? Because we really want to tackle issues with gold purchases and syncing, as we'd had enough sleepless nights over it. But at least the 10 new cards will be part of it, and I have to say they are good! Thanks for your continuing support and patience Steve @ ThreeGoblins
This thread has a lot of comments, but, unfortunately, there doesn't appear to be many online players...
You are best to arrange a meet up time otherwise you have to be in the lobby the exact time someone else is. We've made suggestions to the goblins about being able to see how many people are in the lobby etc which maybe they'll look at in future updates. I find that 7-8 pm GMT there is always a few people online. Feel free to send me an invite to play, I've hurt my back at the moment so I'm on sofa-arrest and BORED! And yeah, we could do with a few more players online. You play other card games don't you? Can't you bring us some fresh meat...I mean NEW FRIENDS to come and play?
It's early days still. As we weren't a port from a physical or web browser game, we didn't start with a pre-made player base. You people here are very much still the founding players in regard to 2-player matches. Also , to my surprise, and total lack of foresight, most players seem more interested in 1-player. 100s seem to enjoy chasing levels as you can see in Game Center. To than end, I am working on a more interesting solo campaign, which will be much more of a challenge. Steve @ ThreeGoblins
Hey Steve - in which phase of development are you currently? Yet brainstorming and open for ideas? Not that I would want a simple copy of it ( and I know you neither do ) but that very old Magic PC game had some nice ideas in it ( manalinks to gain Life-points, Kind of a storyline or also cards as ante for the Games) ... In which direction does your thinking go on this campaign? Also different ways to move forward through the campaign depending on which factions one uses ( or even may 'belong' to...?) could be interesting. However : I really like your support here. There are already numerous people who saw the game on my iPad and wanted to have... Unfortunately they all had changed from Apple to Android . Best rgds Gee
