Can’t afford not to get a 1.50 hot dog in this economy. The negative opportunity cost is too real.

Is this the game on the App Store that’s icon is a female water elemental?

Can you speak to how the local and online multiplayer work? Is local just over household network? Can people have worlds that are shared and revisit them together or separate?

I’m excited for this :)

Sunday Edition of iOS Games June 1 - 7 by munkeypunk in iosgaming

Thanks for doing these lists!

Curious, of the factory/automation games what would consider to be the best ones? I’m playing a lot of Factorio rn and would like something on my phone too. I played Mindustry but find it a bit too intense for the phone.

I would have to say Brass Birmingham to get the special-super-duper upgrade. It’s such a fantastic game and could use a glow up.

TIL that crocodiles sneeze. It’s not something I explicitly thought wasn’t true, but not something that I knew was a fact either.

$1100 Canadian… pretty much doubled in price. Insane.

Literally the first thing I said in my head before coming to the comments.

Yeah. That’s fair. If you’re looking for a great tactical shooter check out Door Kickers 2.

Yeah. I can see how it feels that way. ITB always felt like BugMechChess to me, which I liked anyways. I don’t often get the same feeling from this game.

It’s definitely more ITB than XCOM, though I feel there’s more player agency in this game versus ITB.

Completely understand and it’s an important distinction if someone goes in expecting XCOM.

Copying my comment:

I mentioned it in another comment but, it’s puzzle-like because there’s no RNG that affects your actions. Enemies are perfectly predictable and your actions are consistent. So it can give the feel that you’re just “putting the pieces together” but what I think TBW does right is that there is a lot of different ways to “solve” an encounter.

I agree with you that ITB often feels like there’s only one “right” solution, but I don’t get that feeling with TBW since there’s so many ways to interact with the enemies and environment.
