So I got an iPad mini and I decided to get some games for it, I figure now the screen is big enough for some quality play on it. I got time magazines GOTY 80 days cause it has to be good right. Ummm wtf is this. It's a choose your own adventure book where you pick routes and what to say at certain parts. You have to manage funds and time of course. It's mostly text but none of the text is interesting, no one is interesting, this is the equivalent of the orgeon trail without the simplicity.

I also tried Hitman Go which is a hitman puzzle game. It's neat but it is a really really simple puzzle game. You just move on present paths and try to avoid guards on those paths, you can alter their routes with distractions. Maybe it gets more complicated but something that simple gets boring to me quick.

There is this game called monument valley that is winning all sorts of mobile awards, they call it the journey of mobile so as you can believe I will avoid it like the plague.

I did get hearthstone which is amazing but I have played it. I will try the room next which is like myst. I also got some sim city mobile game that was free. I'll be back with more. I will say prices are amazing though.

Hearthstone won't run on my 2 year old Kindle Fire. Sad

I'd probably mainly get old classic games that were ported over ie. Final Fantasy, Dragon Quest, etc.

You would rather do this then play Endless Ocean 2?

Heh, they should put Endless Ocean on tablets. It would control well, and would be a good fit for that audience.

This takes like 2-3 hours to play not a million hours.

80 days is better now. It is difficult to get around the world in 80 days. A bunch of unexpected stuff happens and throws you off course. I just tried to lead a mutiny aboard a boat and failed. Still nothing great but I fun time waster.

Square-Enix has a lot of their mobile games on sale at Google Play's store. Most are wayered down versions of SNES games with touch controls (the Chrono Trigger port is reportedly abysmal). But the DQ games are decent and as I've said before TWEWY: Solo Remix is better than the DS version.

My adventure in "mobile gaming" was 100% successful. I bought and beat Game Dev Story and then stopped.
