    How long are game sessions? I assume they get longer the more time you invest in the game?

    I'd say 10 minutes is about the length of an average run. As you level up you will go further because you'll do more damage, but 10 minutes is a good average throughout the game.

    I was just coming on here to post about how I love that about this game. The fact that you can leave it in the background and not lose anything. I HATE it when games close out and reload even if you only hit the home button to check something else for a minute and come back.

    Oh...and I love the actual game as well!
     
  4. It does stay in the background for an impressively long time. But I still wish it had a proper pause button.

    game looks fun buy this or 1000000?
     
  6. This game is frustrating me. Now that I realized I can re-play any level to beat my score (except for the ones that crash), I'm all excited to do so and then I think...but why? There's no leaderboard to compete with anyone.

    Yeah, leaderboards would be a nice feature. I haven't hit that restart button yet because I thought maybe there was something more to do that would carry over into a new game. Anyone know if there is a benefit to keeping your progress, or should I just restart?

    So far the first 3 levels all crash for me once I get to section VI. Haven't tested any others yet.

    I DID IT!

    100% of the collections!


    Edit: I... I'm slightly disappointed that there wasn't a special ending after unlocking all the creeps. :(

    Finished it ! Total time was 06:34 - I wonder how that compares to other people? Anyone? Never a big fan of match-3 games, so I hope I did well :) Never finished 1000000, in my opinion this was a much better game layout than it was.

    Also - Echoseven, do you mind writing here how you got 1) Titans - 4, 2)The fixers 3, 3) Team mana 3, 4) The openers 2 and 3. I found all the other monsters.

    Robber: When you are sleeping in the bed in the boat, tap to jump and just keep tapping and jumping before you hit the ground.

    Ninja: Switch to the Pagoda level. Don't start the level, just switch to it. The Ninja will be hiding in the background behind the boat. He's transparent. Just tap on him. You may need to close and re open the game to flush him out.

    Dragon: He's in the paintings in the Gallery stage. Tap on his portrait.

    Skeleton King: Either sell a lot of loot at once or a lot of rare lot in one sitting. Not sure.

    Stupid question but do you match constantly or do you guys wait until you have a challenge like a monster or chest

    Ok, I posted once but no answer so I will try again :). When I am upgrading let's say swords there are three swords. Should I be upgrading only one of them or all three of them? Same goes with staffs and shields.

    I am constantly matching everything except for swords/staves/keys, then switching focus as you run into blockers. You have to keep clearing the junk as often as possible so that your board stays rich with the important stuff.

    I'm getting mad at the 10 crates with crate bomb. What is a crate bomb? I never, never find it. Maybe a bug? Thx for help
