    I had a wisdom tooth taken out Friday so I needed the distraction
    I only have 48 Square Enix games Im trying to play haha
    I did jam out to DQ VII some, have you got to play it yet on 3DS? Are there any differences in that and ios one?

    The look and battle system of FF Legends reminds me a lot of Kingdom Hearts and for a free to play it's not all that bad
    Story is just okay on the lines of say exvius where the story isn't gonna carry the game but both are fun to play

    Unfortunately not, gamestop didn't get it at launch day so as we went on vacation we need to wait a while. But I have been playing DQ IV so not completely DQ-less.

    That looks nice!

    Hero Unleashed is a game i just discovered for 1.99 that is awesome! Very Adventures of Mana like ARPG
    made with unity looks super nice, controls are spot on great, this game is a total gem! Highly recommend this to fans of Mana style ARPGs

    Whoa. That game does look cool. Is the translation understandable? Also, it looks like HU is the second in a series. Have you tried Blackstone : A Tale of Sword and Magic?

    HU is the second and better one
    First one is diff in the fact it's more stage by stage than one worldish
    I have both second one HU is much better but the first one has that same fun battle style
    I like both personally
    Now having said all that you choose he language want it English just select that at beginning :)
    It's also unity so it looks very good
    Such smooth combat controls which is great for an ARPG
    This game needs more spotlight it's great

    To sum the diff up first one is stage by stage fight off enemies maybe beat a boss next stage 1-1,1-2 style where as second one is more Mana Zelda
    Text is clearly legible and everything is scaled good nothing too small to see everything is just right

    Who discovered it? ;) Ahh, I'll give it to you since you jumped first.

    Everything Dailion80 says is true. It's a great game that no one seems to have heard about. English translation isn't perfect but it is understandable. Controls are really tight and combat is very smooth. There are no IAPs and it's on sale right now, 1.99 down from 2.99. The game seems pretty generous with the currency and the cost of upgrades is pretty low, in the beginning at least.

    Thanks again Dailion80 for taking the leap.

    You can go back to an area after you clear it so you can go back for more xp

    You can go back and you will have to fight again unless you run around them. It's great, like a built in grind that you can skip if you want.

    At least early the levels gain pretty fast I'm sure like most it will be get harder as you go on
    It's like a beat 'em up, ARPG, and hack and slash all in one
    Also already updated again :)

    Do you miss out on anything by playing HU without playing the first one first?

    No you don't and really I would only get the first one if you really love the battle side of things
    Having said that I don't regret it seeing I've got worse $1 games
    This is a case of the second being better
    First is more stage based second is more quest based

    You may be best to answer this one
    What time (Tokyo time) and day do new games hit the Japan App Store? Lately I have been finding some good ones and hoping this week the trend continues and that TA article was right a lot of sega Japan only releases lately

    As with other regions, there doesn't seem to be any rhyme or reason to it lately. Mostly clustered around Thursdays, though. Used to be reliably at midnight, but these days... ehn.
