4 Quick tl;dr iOS Game Reviews / Recommendations (Episode 48) Posted: 01 Feb 2020 08:56 AM PST Welcome back, fellow mobile gamers, to this weekly post where I summarize the 4 most interesting games I played last week. Hope you'll enjoy :) This week, I played an amazing new turn-based strategy game, one of the most promising Clash Royale alternatives I've seen in a long while, a fun yet chaotic fast-paced arcade platform shooter, and a fishing game where we use sea-mines to catch mutated sea-creatures! Disagree with my opinion? Let's have a friendly discussion below. New to these posts? Check out the first one from 48 weeks ago here. The games are "ranked" somewhat subjectively from best to worst, so take the ranking for what it is. Let's get to the games:Maze Machina [Game Size: 148 MB] (free)Genre: Strategy / Turn-based / Roguelike / Dungeon-crawler - Offline Playable Orientation: Portrait Required Attention: Some tl;dr review: Maze Machina is a brilliant new turn-based strategy roguelike dungeon crawler by Arnold Rauers (Card Crawl & Card Thief developer). The goal in Maze Machina is to escape 15 rounds of a 4x4 maze by picking up a key and getting to the exit tile on the playing field while dealing with robots blocking the way and trying to attack us. Each tile holds a random item or weapon that we use to destroy robots and eventually get to the exit before we've spent all of our stamina. If we run out of stamina before the 15 rounds are over, or if we get hit by a robot, we die and have to start all over. The art-style is unique and highly polished, the gameplay is fun, and it's practically impossible to complaint about the monetization; on iOS it costs $2 upfront, and on Android the normal game mode is free, we can try any other game mode by watching an advertisement, or unlock it all through a $2 iAP. App Store: Here First Impressions / Review: Here MINImax Tinyverse [Game Size: 633 MB] (free)Genre: Tower Rush / PvP / Strategy - Requires online Access Orientation: Landscape Required Attention: Full tl;dr review: MINImax Tinyverse is a high-quality and very polished strategy 1v1 PvP game that plays like Clash Royale mixed with a MOBA. The theme and setting for the game is that we control an army of tiny creatures that battle it out inside a drawer in an old bookshop. The map has a few different "lanes" onto which we deploy units from our hand using food, trigger the ability of our main hero, and activate spells using mana to defeat our opponents and take down their towers. Winning a match gives us with tickets, which we use in a shop to buy instantly-opening chests that reward us with new units of more of the same units so we can level them up. The game monetizes through a Battle Pass subscription coming in at $6 per season (1-2 months), and through selling premium currency, which can be used to buy additional unit chests, which makes the game pay-to-progress faster. Overall, this is the best Clash of Clans alternative I've played in years, and although the developer CAN definitely turn the game very pay-to-win if they want to, I'm willing to give them the benefit of the doubt because of the fun and relatively unique gameplay mix and polish. App Store: Here First Impressions / Review: Here Klee: Spacetime Cleaners [Total Game Size: 63 MB] (free)Genre: Arcade / Platformer / Shooter / Fast-paced - Offline Playable Orientation: Portrait Required Attention: Full tl;dr review: Klee: Spacetime Cleaners is a fun and unique fast-paced arcade platform shooter. I really enjoyed the fact that all attention is on frantically jumping around the level trying to avoid enemies and their bullets while we shoot automatically. It creates a fun, and chaotic, experience. Between deaths, we can switch between characters with unique traits, upgrade our characters using the game's one and only currency, and equip consumable power-ups that we "research" for free over time. The game's challenging and after beating it you can continue in the endless mode. It also monetizes very lightly with a few incentivized ads and a single $2 iAP to get some currency to upgrade our characters, one extra bag space, and a few more convenience features. App Store: Here First Impressions / Review: Here Mobfish Hunter [Total Game Size: 220 MB] (free)Genre: Fishing / Action / Casual - Requires Online Access Orientation: Landscape Required Attention: Full tl;dr review: Mobfish Hunter is an action fishing game where we catch mutated sea-creatures using sea-mines as bait. Yep, it's exactly as weird and fun as it sounds. On our way down into the deep waters, we have to avoid hitting any fish, and once we hit a fish or reach the limit of how far our fishing rod can go, we start reeling in our sea-mine, trying to his as many fish as possible. Progression is based around buying new sea-mine, each of which have different attack patterns and can be upgraded, and buying new "utilities", which are permanent upgrades for our fishing rod. The game's energy system that gives us 5 lives, each of which regenerates after 5 minutes is a slight annoyance, but with a $2 iAP to remove it completely, the monetization is very light. Buying any iAP also removes the game's ads of which there are quite a few shown between levels if we don't remove them.

Intense games that will make me frustrated beyond belief Posted: 01 Feb 2020 06:21 AM PST Basically, I'm looking for games that look pretty simple, but in reality are very intense and frustrating to play. If you have any suggestions, please leave them, thanks! [link] [comments] | ||
311 Tips & Tricks for Last Day on Earth Posted: 31 Jan 2020 11:02 AM PST tl;dr 1 - Last Day on Earth is a mobile survival game where you gather resources and build your house. My channel first became popular because of this game so this video (or post) is a tribute to LDOE. In this post, I cover almost everything there is to know about the game including the best start, fastest progression, motorcycles, ATVs, etc. (and then towards the end I give a warning) Last Day on Earth has revolutionized the mobile survival game genre, but almost three years later it is still in beta. I have been a pro player for this game for almost three years, and today I am going to give you 311 tips and tricks for this game. Before I get started, let me explain real quick some things about the world map and define a few terms we will use later on in the video. When you first get started, you will only see this section of the map, but as you unlock the three different watchtowers, more of the map will become available to you. In this map, you will find five different types of places. The first one is what I'm calling a "set location" which includes your starting land where you will build your house, Fort Moss, the gas station, the three watchtowers, and the three static AI bases scattered throughout the greater map. Which, while we're on that note, any players you see while on this main map are AI players. There is no real multiplayer anywhere on this main map. The second type of place are zones. There are 13 zones on the greater map, each of which have a resource that it is especially abundant in and its own difficulty level. The greater the difficulty, the more of that resource in that zone. However, choosing the greater difficulty zones is not always the smartest choice, and as you get higher level, these resource zones are not always the best place to get that resource, but I'll get more into that a little later on. The most important thing to know about these zones is that they reset as soon as you leave them, which means that if you die in one of these 13 zones, you will never get any of your stuff back. If you want to know the most efficient way to farm these zones, make sure to check out my playlist called "the efficacious way." The third type of place are what I call "timed locations". These locations usually include the best rewards, but also hold the biggest challenges. As soon as you undertake one of these challenges, you will notice a timer appear over them, which indicates how long it will be before that location resets. If you die in these locations, you can go back and get your stuff, but be careful not to die a second time because if you do, all of the stuff that was still on your first body will disappear forever. The fourth type of location are events. Events show up multiple times a day or week and don't last very long before they disappear. They are a great way to get easy loot, but they also require a lot of energy to travel to, so it is important to be careful as to when you do these events. But I will explain more about that later on in this video. Also, there are some events that are triggered by interacting with something in another place in the map. For example, if you see these two guys in your home area, they will kidnap you and then you have to get your stuff back and break out of this house. Here is a list of the nine of these type of interactive events, which I am including with the eight events that appear on a more normal schedule. And then the fifth type of place are multiplayer zones. All multiplayer zones are found within Sector 7, which requires a significant amount of higher-tier resources to unlock. In reality, Sector 7 is really just a testing ground for multiplayer, so I wouldn't worry too much about rushing to unlock this area. Most advanced players do not find Sector 7 that enjoyable because it requires a lot of grinding for not much reward, but hopefully that will not always be the case. Alright, now that we've talked about the five different types of locations, let's talk about getting the best possible start. When you first start the game, you will be given the option to customize your character and choose a name. Take a little bit of time to do this right, because once you've made your choice, you will not be able to change your name, appearance, or gender until you build the mirror, and even with the mirror, you can only change your name every thirty days, and it cost coins to change your appearance and gender. When you confirm your character's name and appearance, you will be spawned next to a truck, naked and alone. This is the location where you will be able to build your base. Last Day on Earth has added text in your starting location to help you get started, so I won't talk too much about this part, but let me touch briefly on the most important aspects of starting out. Using this button to sneak is really important for succeeding in this game. Sneak attacks do triple damage, which will not only make your weapons a lot more effective, but it will limit how many times you get hit which reduces how much food you need. Since your character is immortal, the only cost of dying is losing the stuff on you. Because of this, allowing yourself to die at your home location is a great way to reset your health, food or thirst. However, when you do this, your body will stay there forever so if your body is annoying you, make sure to allow yourself to die again on a less annoying part of your land. This abandoned base is yours to do with what you want, but you should keep in mind that some of the things in this base are extremely valuable. For example, even though this couch has no purpose, if you wanted to build one yourself, it would require 20 oak planks which is very difficult to get especially starting off, so I don't recommend deleting it unless you are positive that you do not want a couch in your house. And then these stone walls are very expensive to make as well, so it is best to fit them into your base design. Likewise, trees, rocks, and deer never reset on this location, so if you want to include trees or pets into your home design, then you need to make sure to keep them there. The shirt and knife that you get from the truck is actually pretty decent gear for starting off, so I recommend saving it for later on. Also, while it is good to collect the resources from your broken walls, don't feel the need to repair them or build any new walls for a while. You just need to build floors and put chests on them to put all of your stuff in. Your base will not get raided until you activate that part of the game later on, so there is no need to protect your stuff. And there is a zombie horde that will arrive once a day that will destroy level one and level two walls, so don't waste your resources on walls until you are ready to start building a base that is good against raiding. If you need help with designing your base, make sure to check out my video on the best way to design your base. But for right now, gather all of the resources you want to in your home area, which should get you to level three. Build several chests so you can put all of your stuff in them, and then build a backpack which should automatically be equipped, and then leave the area. When you do this, make sure that you have your backpack equipped, but other than that you want to be completely naked. When you enter your world map for the first time, a crashed airplane event will appear. This is one of the best events of the game, and you will only get to experience this event two times total so you want to make the most of it. In the rare occasion that it does not appear, do not go back into your base yet, or else you will spawn the healer too early. Rather, just sprint to Bunker Bravo and then enter and exit that area so that it will appear. I recommend using 30 energy to get to this event instantly, and then as soon as you enter the area, go ahead and try to leave the area. When you do, this pop-up will appear, allowing you to make a one-time purchase of a military backpack for $2.00. This is the second best deal you will get in the game because the only other way to get this nicer backpack is to get to level 64 or spend closer to $10 at the shop, but if you are free to play, don't worry about this, I can still help you succeed. When I started playing this game, the military backpack didn't even exist yet. Since I'm on the subject of spending money, the best purchase you can make in the game is upgrading to the paid version of the Survival Guide, which is only available to new players. You can access the Survival Guide through the shop or in your inbox which it will always be at the top to make it easy for you. You will also see a task list that you can put in your inventory, but I wouldn't recommend taking it because you can see all of the tasks by clicking this list button here. As you complete tasks in the Survival Guide, you get points to unlock new levels. Once you unlock those levels, you can claim the rewards of that level. Everyone gets these rewards, whereas anyone that pays the $5.00 gets access to these rewards as well. This ends up being a ton of rewards, but more importantly, paying the $5.00 guarantees you to finish the motorcycle which can otherwise be a huge grind. That being said, I started playing this game before the motorcycle existed and then was able to get the parts for my motorcycle back when it was much harder to get than it is now. So if you are free to play player, just stick it out with me, and I'll help you get where you need to go. As you are completing the Survival Guide, I have three important tips for you. The first one is that if you were going to spend coins, wait until the last levels because they get more and more difficult to complete. The second one is to keep the weapons and armor that you earn in your inbox. You only have so much space in your base, and you have even less space in your inventory, so being able to keep the items in your inbox will allow you to take them out exactly when you need them. Also, it will prevent those items from getting stolen in a raid when you unlock that part of the game. Lastly, I recommend saving up your experience books and Vitamin B so that you can use them all together to get the maximum benefit. So that is a Survival Guide which is only available once, but after you hit Level 15, you will be able to participate in season passes which are very similar to the survival guide. But before you make any of these three purchases on my recommendation, please make sure to watch my warning towards the end of this video. And then for those of you who are completely free to play, but don't mind grinding in games for money, you should check out my video on how to get free stuff in last day on Earth. This brings us back to the plane crash. As you go through the chests of the plane crash, you want to prioritize weapons, armor, and food because those are the hardest items to get at a low level. Be sure to equip items to save room. It is important to know that by equipping food or healing in this slot, it allows you to heal while you are fighting. I am always surprised by how many new players don't know that. When you're in your inventory, you will notice a hunger and thirst meter. You will probably start getting hungry and thirsty for the first time during this event. So since you will not be able to bring everything back with you, I recommend eating some of the jerky and water as you loot the area so that you leave with these meters at 100%. You will get attacked by a couple of wolves while you're here, but you shouldn't have any problems taking them out. If you did not get the military backpack, your inventory should look kind of like this when you are done. It might feel like you're leaving a lot of items behind, but all of the items that I did not pick up in this scenario are pretty common items, and you won't really need them until you are much higher level. Go ahead and leave the area and return home. You can run if you want to, but you should keep in mind that only one energy is restored every five minutes. When you arrive, you will find the Healer. In exchange for watching an advertisement, the Healer will give you some kind of buff. The best buffs to get this early in the game are Muscle Vines, which will restore your energy to 100 and Brainweed Seeds, which doubles the amount of experience you get for one hour. After you watch the commercial, grab the knife and shirt that you got in the beginning of the game, put some berries in your quickslot and then leave the area. Armor in this game has exponentially diminishing returns so I recommend only using one piece of armor at a time until you have the ability to make armor for yourself. You can see that I started farming the zone here because I thought it might be efficient, but then I remembered that sometimes stronger AI players will spawn at airdrops and AI players are the number one way that new players die in this game. Now usually that's because they haven't figured out the healing quickslot yet, but I don't care. I do not want you guys to die following this tutorial because dying usually means you lose everything on you so just leave the area and go back home. Put your stuff away again and then head to the green pine zone. The first time you enter a green zone, an AI player with half health will attack you. When you kill him, you will find a chopper wheel. This is a very rare item and you will never find a chopper wheel in any of the zones ever again so make sure to take this home. After you finish looting his body, a puppy will come up to you. Go over to the puppy and use the interact button to pick him up. This is also a very rare item that only happens the first time you enter a green zone so make sure to bring this item home as well. After grabbing these items, start clearing the zone by sneaking up on everything in the map. This area is a lot bigger than your home area, and has a few fast biters, but it is still pretty easy to clear with the equipment you have. Your knife is only good for 100 hits even at full durability so it will break before you finish clearing the zone. When this happens, use three wood to craft a spear. The spear obviously doesn't do as much damage, but if you move between hits, you can limit how many times enemies are able to hit you. Once you clear all the enemies, make a hatchet and a pickaxe and then put your character on auto. Auto is one of my favorite aspects of this game because it makes farming the zones relaxing to me, but don't leave your phone completely unattended, because from time to time, AI players will come and attack you as will the occasional wolf or zombie. Using berries is the most efficient way to heal, but they don't help your hunger and thirst bar very much, so you will get hungry and thirsty while farming this zone. You can often find beans and water in these chests, but if for some reason that isn't working, just click the shop button and then go to your inbox. Everyday at midnight Greenwich Mean Time, three canned beans and three waters will be added here as long as you remember to collect them. These are really useful in a pinch. They will stop appearing after you hit level 100, but you have a long time to go until that happens. When your inventory gets full, leave the area. As I mentioned earlier, when you travel away from any of these resources zones in the game, they will be completely reset. This is frustrating when you die because you can't get your stuff back, but this is amazing for getting resources because it allows you to go back to them over and over again to get more of those resources. When you are first starting the game, I recommend spending almost all of your energy and time going back and forth to these green zones because they are the best place to get lots and lots of the resources you need early on. Farming these zones are also the best way to get experience and therefore the fastest way to level up. Every time you level up, you will get to select new skills. The purple skills are generally the best, yellow being the second-best, and gray being the worst, but that is not always true. For example, the ten levels of the Bruiser skill are, in my opinion, almost always a top choice. The best skill in the game is the extra pocket and the three levels of the Burglar skill are also incredibly important. Choosing the three levels of the quick learner skill early on can make a huge difference over time, and the three levels of the Nerves of Steel make a huge difference against certain enemies. After that, choosing skills is highly based on your play style, especially when it comes to active skills, because none of the other skills can compete with the practical usefulness of the two active skills you start out with. Early on, you should run into a Destroyed Convoy event. This is an amazing event and I would recommend going to it because it often has a Bunker Alpha access card, but if you are a new player don't pick up the minigun, because a ton of zombies will appear and the minigun makes you run really slow. However, if you insist, make sure you have another weapon in your other quick slot so that you can quickly switch and run away, but I would still suggest just not picking it up altogether. Or at least going and putting the stuff that you got, including the Bunker Alpha access card back in your base, before going back for the minigun. These red arrows on the map signify when the zombie horde will arrive at your base. As I mentioned, when they arrive they will destroy your walls. You can upgrade your floors and then walls by clicking on your existing floors and walls while having the resources required to upgrade them. The zombie horde will normally destroy dozens of level one walls or a few level two walls, but they can not destroy level three or four walls. So if you do not build any walls, nothing will happen to your base. However, exactly 120 hours after you finish your CB radio, a group of three raiders will appear at the bottom of your map. Once you complete their tasks, you will have the opportunity to raid a computer-generated base. However, once you start raiding you will need to give the raider's a cut of the profits to appease them, and it will open up the option for some AI to raid your base, so you need to make sure that your base is ready when you do this. I also have a video on the best way to raid, but YouTube only lets me put the links to five videos in the cards so you will have to find it on my channel. In fact, I have videos on every aspect of this game and I am currently redoing my best videos, so if you like videos with dense amounts of information, be sure to check out the classics or subscribe so you will get to see the newer versions. Most of your progression through this game will be determined by how fast you are able to level up and build the workbenches in your crafting menu. The campfire is crucial for making coal, which is the most efficient fuel in the game until you build the ATV, and it can also help stretch how much food you have. The garden bed is going to be your best source of food over the long haul, but it doesn't give it to you quickly. The woodworking bench and furnace are the two most used workbenches in the game, so I recommend building two of each of them and keeping them busy as soon as you can. The shower keeps you clean, which makes it easier to sneak up on enemies, but dying also resets your cleanliness so I recommend using your immortality to your advantage. That being said, once you build the rain catcher which allows you to refill empty water bottles, it is often easier to shower. The CB radio allows you to access the dealer who doesn't really offer that great of deals, and then the Raiders, which is a much bigger benefit. As you can see from the CB radio in your base, many of these items in your crafting tab require you to assemble them after placing them, which usually costs a lot more resources than it does to place them. The most notorious example of this is the motorcycle because it takes even a really active player at least a month to complete it. And could take a lot longer than that. If you want to know everything there is to know about getting your motorcycle, leveling it up, painting it, and washing it, you should check out my motorcycle video. The dog crate also requires assembly, but it is not nearly as hard to complete and when you finish it you will be able to release the puppy you got earlier. I also have videos on the best ways to find and breed puppies, which is pretty complex so I recommend checking them out, but again, you will have to search for those on YouTube. These three crafting tables are really important but also self-explanatory. The doormat allows you to pick your spawn point in your base so that you don't always spawn near the truck. And while it is important to save a place for the garage in your base design, you don't really need to place it until after you have finished your motorcycle. The gunsmith bench is a huge part of the game, which is why they start you out with one. The blueprints you get throughout the game allow you to assemble weapon modifications here at the gunsmith bench. Once you assemble those modifications, you can add them to any weapon you get of that type. Now I can go into all of the best modifications for each weapon, but you don't really need to know that much about weapon modifications until you assemble your gunsmith bench, so once you do that, come back and watch my videos on weapon modifications. This brings us to the sewing machine. In my opinion, the sewing machine is your first step into intermediate play in this game. It allows you to turn fibers into cloth and cloth into thick fabric. These are crucial ingredients for so many important items in the game, and I recommend crafting it as soon as you can. One of the most common mistakes new players make is using their resources towards assembling the chopper instead of saving them to craft these important workbenches. It will take you a while to build your chopper, so make sure to focus on everything else first. The ATV was just recently added to the game, but it is extremely difficult to assemble. In fact, I would guess that it would take a free-to-play player that does not use any exploits roughly three years to complete it. But that won't always be the case, Kefir always makes things really hard to get when something first comes out to get people to spend money, and then makes it easier to get those items as the newness wears off. The workbench allows you to flatten metal into plates and turn iron plates into nails. It is important to have for intermediate play, but not nearly as important to rush to get as would be the sewing table. Building, assembling, and leveling up the radio tower allows you to form a clan with friends which allows you to chat with them, but you can not play with those friends until you have unlocked Sector 7, which is still a work in progress. The Mirror allows you to change your appearance and gender in exchange for 25 coins, and your name for free every 30 days. The wardrobe manages your underwear and backpack skins, and I have a strong feeling that they will also be adding armor skins in the near future. The recycler is another huge part of the game. There are some very important materials in this game that can only be obtained by recycling things in the recycler. Your chances of getting the most desired items are based on how much durability that item has, and they are increased as you level up your recycler which will be very difficult when you're just starting off, but as you get to higher levels, you will have a lot of extra resources which makes this a lot easier. The medical table allows you to turn berries into alcohol, which is essential for creating first aid kits. Electric generators are important for unlocking Bunker Bravo and the three watchtowers, but it cannot be carried unless you have a motorcycle, so make sure to assemble your motorcycle before your generator. And then by that time you will likely be able to get already assembled electric generators from raiding bases, so I think there is a good chance that you will never have to actually assemble one of these. The refined furnace is an advanced workbench for this game. It's main purpose is to create stee,l which is essential for most other advanced workbenches and items. The kitchen stove is one of those advanced workbenches, and it allows you to create some pretty sophisticated foods. The blueprint for the Acid Bath will not be on your blueprint list at first. That is because it does not show up on here until you find it on the third floor of Bunker Alpha. The Acid Bath allows you to open infected crates, which is for advanced play, and ore crates once you finish your ATV. The pressing machine is another advanced workbench which allows you to turn lead into plates. The chemistry station allows you to craft acid, gunpowder, and anti-radiation pills. And then lastly, the Hydroponic System allows you to grow the spices used at the chemistry table. Once you get this far in the crafting menu, a large percentage of these items don't exist in the game yet. Knowing which items exist and which ones don't is essential for succeeding at the game because it helps you create the right goals. So keep in mind that most items that don't exist require either tungsten or titanium, which are resources that don't exist in the game yet. Getting the resources to complete all of these workbenches also has a typical pattern. As I said earlier, you should start us spending a lot of time farming the green zones. This will not only give you the resources you need to complete your first 13 workbenches, but it is also the fastest way to level up. So other than the occasional event and motel visit, I would stick mostly to the green zones until you hit Level 18 and build your sewing machine which is the beginning of intermediate play. Once you finish your sewing machine, you will be able to convert all of the extra plant fiber you have collected into armor and bandages, which will make it 10 times easier to take on some of the harder challenges of the game. At this point you will want to start completing the Farm and Bunker Alpha as often as you can. Bunker Alpha is unlocked using a Bunker Alpha access card, and the farm is unlocked using these resources. To complete these challenges, you will need to turn a lot of the iron, wood, and leather you have collected into melee weapons like the crowbar, shovel, and metal pipe. Saving your armor right before it breaks will allow you to reinforce it which not only resets its durability and increase it's armor rating, but also increases its durability from 150 to 180. This better armor will be particularly helpful for Bunker Alfa because you need an armor rating of at least 17 to not get killed with one shot by a Frenzied Giant. For more tips on these locations like how to do the wall trick, make sure to check out my playlist with advanced videos for this game. You might find some videos are out of date, but I will work to update those videos as soon as I can. Doing these locations will give you rarer and more valuable items like the materials needed to finish your motorcycle, but they will also slowly eat through the resources you have been farming, so you will have to keep farming to replenish your basic resources. Furthermore, at this point you will start needing a lot more iron, which will require you to start farming the yellow rock zone as well. Some people like to farm the red zone because it has even more iron, but I would argue that the extra energy cost, Toxic Spitters, and higher chance of encountering the Big One make the yellow zone a better way to get iron. That being said, if you don't farm red zones, it is important that you start attending the oak clearing event as often as you can to get oak and fur. The main goal during intermediate play is to finish your motorcycle which, in my opinion, marks the beginning of advanced play in this game. Getting the parts to finish your motorcycle is based on an RNG loot system, so some players will get it much faster than others, but on average, a free-to-play player needs to complete the Farm 20 times and clear 40 floors of Bunker Alpha to get all of the parts needed to finish their motorcycle. But this also means that by the time you finish the motorcycle, you will end up having a lot of extra vehicle parts left over, which allows you to then trade those in at the gas station to level up your motorcycle. But as I said earlier, if you want more information on how to get the motorcycle, the best way to level it up, or how to get skins I have a whole video dedicated to just that. Once you finish your motorcycle, you also gain the ability to carry an electric generator to a location. Using a generator on this watchtower unlocks the northern area of the map, which gives you access to farming oak and copper zones. Unlocking this watchtower gives you access to the Police Station, which is the best place to get weapon modification blueprints. And unlocking Bunker Bravo allows you to farm for the ATV, which is the current ultimate goal in the game because it allows you to unlock the last watchtower and gain access to ash wood, peat, sulfur and lead. At this point in the game, you will probably be around level 80, which means that you can craft almost anything in the game as long as you have the resources. This makes challenges like Bunker Alpha and the Farm much easier because you can craft items like machetes and saw blade maces, which are much better than crowbars and shovels. You can also craft more advanced work benches and walls if you have the resources, but getting those resources starts getting a lot more difficult, and sadly this is where I feel like the game starts losing it original charm because of a broken scaling system. For example, one of my favorite things about Last Day on Earth is farming for resources in the zones and taking them home, because it filled me with a sense of accomplishment as it felt like the reward was worth the work. In contrast, a red winter zone only has three to four copper deposits that only give one copper ore each, which isn't even enough to smelt one copper bar, which then once you do get a copper bar you still have to mix it with other metals to get a steel bar, which means that you have to start farming the original zones even more just to get that resource. So getting steel requires over a hundred times as much grinding as getting iron and then, after you get 20 steel, you can build one wall. So for me, this kind of exponential scaling completely eliminated my sense of satisfaction for farming, and I almost never farm the winter zones. Likewise, even though the Police Station is a lot of fun, getting weapon modification blueprints is extremely frustrating because the RNG system allows repeats, making the grind to get the blueprint that you want infinitely frustrating. Meanwhile, getting the resources to complete the Police Station requires you to go back and farm the original zones even more, making the grind even more intense. And then lastly, while the challenge of doing Bunker Bravo is exhilarating, it requires dozens of guns and advanced resources just to complete an incredibly small fraction of your ATV. So in order to get your ATV, you need to do Bunker Bravo a lot, which means you need to do the Police Station, Bunker Alpha, and the Farm a lot for those guns and advanced materials, which then requires you to farm even more of the original zones, creating an exponential grinding pyramid of death. Relief from this death pyramid can only come from either cheating, which eventually leads to losing your account, spending money, or using exploits. This has caused a lot of advanced players to be frustrated with the game, which is why you will find quite of few grumpy veterans in the Last Day on Earth community. So in short, advanced play in Last Day on Earth is very different then beginning or intermediate play, and my recommendation is to play Last Day on Earth until you get to finish your motorcycle. Then unlock the two watchtowers and Bunker Bravo and play all of those challenges until you get bored of them, and then quit the game. If you still want more of this game type, go play Dawn of Zombies or one of Kefir's other games (listed in pinned post). And if Last Day on Earth comes out with some great updates, you can always come back and play them later. And everything that I just mentioned will be easier at that time because Kefir often makes older things less grindy as they introduce new things to the game. So that is an overview of Last Day on Earth, but in addition to those 288 tips and tricks, I have 23 more for you. The machete has one of the highest DPS ratings out of any of the craftable weapons. The saw blade mace has the highest craftable sneak attack damage When you are picking up puppies, look to see if their collar is blue or red so that you know what gender they are before you pick them up, and then put your male and female puppies into different chests. That way you can release an equal amount of males and females into your dog pen and avoid wasting a ton of food because of extra dogs. Don't cook steak because jerky is way more efficient, especially now that they start you out with a meat drying rack. If you were playing a lot in the very beginning, you might want to use normal wood as fuel even though it is less efficient, because you will need all of your planks for building new workbenches. Drinking 13 bottles of water will make you need to pee, And Beer almost always makes you pee. Peeing and getting hit by Toxic Spitters will increase your stink level. Once you hit a red stink level, enemies will see you from farther away and you will not be able to sneak up on them. If you were looking for one particular item, you can use the split item feature to fill up all of your excess inventory slots and then put your character on auto. This will make your character only gather the items you have room for. Leaving a bunker floor resets the enemies on the floor, allowing you to get one sneak attack on each enemy, but this does not work in hardmode or at Bunker Bravo. You can get the Bunker Alpha entry code from your CB radio or this dead guy in the zones. You can also get it from most Last Day on Earth communities, which I would recommend joining one. There are a lot of really good communities around this game. Your hunger and thirst meters lose one point every eight seconds. Knowing this allows you to calculate how much time you have to finish farming a zone. The official Last Day on Earth discord is a great source of news and hosts several giveaways, so I put a link to that in the pinned post. Farming just the outskirts of zones is a great way to get resources for almost no cost. AI bases will disappear twelve hours after the first time you visit them, so don't visit them until you are ready to raid them well. You can shoot through windows, so keep that in mind when you're designing your base. Using the honeycomb tactic is stupid because it breaks the game, and I have a lot of opinions about it that I'm not going to share, because it is also a really smart tactic that is extremely effective. You can click drive on the motorcycle even if you plan to walk or run, and you still get to use it's extra inventory slots. Even though there is a lower chance of getting items from recycling items with low durability, they still give your recycler the same amount of experience, so it is best to recycle all your low durability items to level up your recycler. If you get the witch's head as a trophy, you can keep the horde away from your base for several months by burning only one pine log each day. In the settings tab, you can change your notification settings. While you are here, make sure your game is connected to your Google or iOS account. There's also a lot of other really cool options in here, including the best way to get a hold of customer support. If you do contact customer support you will need to know you're unique ID. You can find that by clicking on your server on the bottom left. And I would suggest going ahead and screenshotting that number now just in case something bad happens. There's been a lot of lost accounts in this game and I don't want yours to be one of them And then my last and final tip for you guys is a sponsored tip. As many of you know, I get a lot of companies offering to sponsor me, but they usually have really bad products that I don't want to support. So after asking Nubia several times explaining to them how much I love their phone, they have finally agreed to sponsor me. So my last tip is to buy the Red Magic 3s as your next phone upgrade because, in my opinion, it is the best gaming phone in the world, especially when you consider the price. The Red Magic has the specs and liquid cooling system of a small computer, but more importantly, the phone software and hardware is designed around mobile gaming. There are a lot of examples of this, but the most important one is that it has two built-in triggers which you can bind to anywhere you want on the screen. You can also bind the fingerprint button on the back allowing you to use five fingers at the same time. I switched over to this phone two months ago as my main phone that I use in life, my real job, and for this channel and I could not recommend it more. I love this phone. If you want to know more about this phone and how I use it with Last Day on Earth, make sure to check out my last video on how to get more buttons. ...ran out of room! lol (reddit limit) tl;dr 1 - Last Day on Earth is a mobile survival game where you gather resources and build your house. My channel first became popular because of this game so this video (or post) is a tribute to LDOE. In this post, I cover almost everything there is to know about the game including the best start, fastest progression, motorcycles, ATVs, etc. (and then towards the end I give a warning) [link] [comments] | ||

Fill out my list(Game recommendations) Posted: 01 Feb 2020 02:22 AM PST Hi all! Found some great airplane travel games while browsing around here and am looking for more stuff in the same spirit. What strikes me the most is I played many of these amazing games on PC and had no idea that they were available in the app store at all, guess apple does their best to hide them... Either way, I'd love for you to help me fill out the list and give me some additional recommendations. Maybe there's more great indie games I already love on PC. Darkest Dungeon Kingdom: New Lands Crashlands Templar Battleforce Star Traders: Frontiers Heroes of Steel RPG KOTOR FTL This war of mine Papers, Please Invisible, Inc. SteamWorld Heist Terraria Civ 6 Transistor Space Marshals Pocket City Xcom Banner Saga FF Tactics Shieldwall Chronicles Battle Chasers: Nightwar Stardew Valley I have a very strong preference for turn based tactical games. I really love RPG aspects where I can upgrade my squad etc. Battle Brothers is one of my favourite indie games for PC for instance, sadly not available on IOS. I generally play on business flights, vacation flights and vacation. I don't really play at home at all. But I used to bring a laptop to flight just to play Darkest Dungeon(didnt know it was available for IOS) and now I can only get my ipad up instead which is nice. So please add recommendations of similar games, I mainly want to know what great things I missed due to apple being worthless. :) [link] [comments] | ||

Posted: 31 Jan 2020 07:53 PM PST Sorry I'm a little bit late, i just recently got Arcade and i wanted to share my opinion. Where to begin... There's so much to say about this game that im not sure i can fully put it into words. I don't usually write reviews but this game deserves one without a doubt. Mutazione is not only a game, it's an experience, and every single bit of effort that the developers have put into this game is felt all throughout the gameplay. The Characters: Probably the most important aspect of this game. Mutazione is described as "a mutant soap opera", and that description is surely accurate. I wouldn't describe the characters as anything but genuine, it truly feels like a bunch of real people, or mutants in the case, the amount of character development throughout the story for almost every character is fantastic, and i would love to get into detail but i would be spoiling part of it, and the more people that get to enjoy the story as much as i did, the better. It often happened that Kai went to sleep, but i kept wanting more and more character interaction, I couldn't get enough and found myself constantly checking the diary in order to try and search for more answers about the storyline. The story: Top notch, it hooks you up like few other games do. Again, the fact that the characters feel so real contributes to the story being more intriguing. Kind of wish that it was a little bit longer, but from start to finish it is so damn enjoyable that i really couldn't think of anything more that would add substantial value to the narrative. The way the characters feel, and the thoughtful message presented at the end about realizing that sometimes we can't take all the blame for every tragedy, that we shouldn't sacrifice our sanity to dwell in remorse about the past, is not only great advice, but also the cherry on top of this game. The World: Mutazione's island, much like it's inhabitants, feels like it actually exists in real life, hell you even have a huge ENCYCLOPEDIA about its flora and fauna that you can read about if you so desire, (warning, i meant it when i said it's huge). Both the changes to the scenery and the design of the town make the experience better as a whole, props to the design team on this one because it is one of my absolute favorite parts about the game. The Music: Complements the world perfectly, it's part of the world and it certainly fits it as well. Tribal, rudimentary, simplistic, spiritual, meaningful... holy it is good. Im not the biggest "game soundtrack" guy but i would buy Mutazione's soundtrack in a heartbeat only to use it while meditating or something, jeez. The Gameplay: Not much to say about this one, standard point and click controls, so it makes sense that the port adapts to mobile so well. Would love to see a plant filter when building the different gardens or something along those lines. Although there is an alphabetical order to it already, i feel like the aspect of building the garden could be improved slightly, but it is so hard to come up with criticism about the game, that is my best attempt at it. Would love to hear everyone's thoughts about the game, and sorry for this absolute monster of a post but i was so pleasantly surprised by how good of a game Mutazione ended up being that i felt the need to write a few paragraphs. To the developers, Gratitude... [link] [comments] | ||
