WTF... all badges had been completed by Jun 2011, and now somehow all my saved game data is gone! What the hell Kong? This is my all time favorite game on here! I've kept that data for years! (And no, I'm not dumb enough to have cleared any data on my end of things)! Pissed...
I just beat the game with a high score of 67400 and an A+ rating. No it wasn't my first play through. My first time through was absolutely terrible! I only state this to show that it is more than possible to be successful in this game! I know it's challenging, I know it's difficult, but come on people! How often do you encounter a game that REALLY puts your skills to the test? Just try to beat the EARLY provinces with as many clicks left as possible and you'll get a TON of XP so that you can develop your team more fully.
Playing as an Ascended thanks to the unlock from the first chapter and I'm LOVING this game as much as I did the first time through! I just have a few questions/thoughts/observations. Is poison supposed to take away from mana reserves? Is mana burn supposed to cause physical damage, but ONLY when the opponent has mana? Is burn supposed to do something other than flash up "-2" above the enemy, but not ACTUALLY take health away? Other than these lingering questions about status effects... amazing game!
Any advice on "Push the button" level? Burn the first barrier with acid... CHECK. Light the wood behind it on fire... CHECK. Watch as the wood doesn't set any other pieces on fire 5 times in a row... CHECK. W...T...F...!
Paused the game... probably going to jinx myself by even writing this.... 23 days in and EVERY country is infected except for one.... YES you know damn well which country it is..... I swear to all things even remotely Holy I will toss my computer out the window if that freaking port closes.
First off, as has already been mentioned, Dim's levels SUCK! I'm not usually one for leaving comments in any capacity, whether I love or hate a game. I have enjoyed each and every Crush the Castle until now. His levels are ridiculously stupid and tedious. It's a shame to have this happen to such a great game series. That being said, I also do not at all understand the physics for the explosives... Your projectile MUST touch the barrel in order for it to explode? Why not have the same physics for it's destruction as the peasants, lords and ladies? I love the series and hope the next installment is more fulfilling than this tripe.
Let me just say that the "Parting Gift" card is working in reverse... Each time I kill one of my opponents units I AM THE ONE WHO LOSES A LIFE POINT.... wtf?
I don't usually comment on games but I see great potential here! My issues (I may be reiterating some other points already made, if so I'm sorry in advance).
1: Elevators get stuck and won't move causing game to glitch, which can be fixed by building another floor (I usually build it on top of the busted elevator since it seems to always get stuck at the top).
2: I seem to be able to upgrade elevators one level higher than what has been researched.
3: The continue feature definitely doesn't work, which REALLY upset me when I was into day 12 and had to take a break for a bit, made sure to get to the end of the day (because the game says it saves at the end of each day) only to find that hey guess what, the continue button does nothing at all!
4: I had bathrooms randomly disappear from the screen while trying to place the cafeteria.
5: Managers and supervisors are assholes! (Okay, not really an issue with the game, I personally find the head-bonking freaking hilarious!)
eh, i have to join the crowd on this one, morale time is wayyyyyy too short! Its impossible to plan out any sort of strategy if you are more worried about moving before you explode
