I voted for Sproggiwood - it's compulsively addictive with a nagging difficulty and clever enemy design focused on a lot of mine traps; I haven't been able to put it down.
wow.. I'm the only one who nominated 8-Bit Waterslide. So I can't vote for it.. now my vote goes to Relic Run, also a great game.
I agree about Relic Run. I've put many hours into it this week. There was no doubt in my mind this would be my GotW. Until I put it down and played more Nubs' Adventure. Nubs' is so amazing in all aspects: graphics, music, story, controls... It's so original and lovingly crafted, I had to pick it. The developer wrote this "post-mortem" article about the game. Found it to be a really interesting read. I'll still love Relic Run and plan on playing for a long time.
It really has to be Chaos Rings 3. Seriously, no joke. An RPG like that for iOS comes along once a decade. And with freemium being all the rage, it could even be longer.
My vote this week goes to Zombiebucket. I spent most of the time with this game since last week. It's a strong week anyway. I'm playing Lara Croft since its first day of soft-launch, it deserves a vote as well. I'm enjoying Geometry Wars 3 a lot, but still prefer Zombiebucket when there's a time. I'm also dowloading Nub's Adventure right now, I missed it somehow. I put Sproggiwood on my wishlist because I'm simply over my budget this week. And on ROGER-NL's suggestion, I'm still playing and enjoying One More Dash as well. So it's really difficult to choose. But as I wrote, I spent most time lately with Zombiebucket and with dev's promise to bring infinite lives IAP and content update within next two weeks, it's my GOTW.
Guys, I voted for our own game (Zombiebucket), and it was my hand being much faster than my brain, so please remove the vote, cheers.
Very close race here, I hope some due diligence will be done with respect to zero post and very new account voters.
I'm really having a hard time deciding between Desktop Dungeons and Sproggiwood, regardless of who gets my vote in the end, these are two great games that I will be enjoying for a long long time. Definitely one of the most satisfying weeks on the AppStore.
I was a few days away and now i'm interested in the "official" final results. It's fun to see the (mostly fair?) race between some games and how my vote is affecting the result (if at all), but in the end i definitely want to see a clear first three places...after the unpleasent extra time to sort out the very obvious shenanigans. Thanks for your work undeadcow & co.
The "official" results don't do much to set a "clear first three places" but here they are: First Place: Sproggiwood [15 votes] Second Place: Nub's Adventure [12 votes] Third Place [3x tie]: Chaos Rings III, Desktop Dungeons, Zombiebucket [10 votes] Deleting any votes with 0 posts resulting in 4 votes for Zombiebucket being disqualified. No other changes seemed necessary (but please let me know if anyone notices otherwise). I can't think of any other fair way to gauge outside interference if any occurred [suggestions?].
That's what i meant with "official". Looking only at the poll was misleading me who got 2nd and 3rd. I also have no better suggestions, besides how to handle the very obvious brand new shilly members. Thanks for your precious time, undeadcow!
