Ha! These are board game companies we're talking about. They probably signed their rights away for a smile from a girl and a bag of Cheetos. I bet you a box of doughnuts most of their contracts don't even have an expiry date on them.

Seriously, nearly everyone who signed on to this is clueless. Software takes time to develop. Suppose you're not in the top ten of desirable properties. Even if Goko ran perfectly, how long did they imagine it was going to take for Goko to get to their game?

Suburbia is on sale: appshopper.com/games/suburbia

And I guess Quarriors is free, but I don't know if even that is cheap enough.

Okay guys,

I'm just pulling out of playing Kingdom Wars, a freemium CCG-ish game that was fun while it lasted, but kinda boring now.

I've gotten a little into Shadow Era (friend's recommendation), and it seems okay.

Any other CCG suggestions?

Alternatively, any good 4x (preferably in space) games? Looking for something lighter than adjusting thruster stats on each ship in a fleet of 50, but I'm open.

I broke out Quarriors on IOS because it's free. Played 5 games of it and remembered how truly tedious and banal it is.

Back to Elder Signs: Omen and Warhammer Quest for me.

They've released some new content for Space Hulk iOS. New Space Marine chapter and some new missions.

The ASSASSIN'S CREED REVELATIONS game was a neat take on CCG, Ska_baron. Had this cool timer mechanic I thought was interesting. Have you played SOL FORGE? That can be fun. It's a little one-dimensional though. I heard some recent patches made it more interesting but I haven't checked in.

Sol Forge is really good level up mechanic that makes it interesting. I ran the base game on my iPad 1.0 and when I updated it recently I can no longer run it ;-( . What sucks is that most of the new games need IOS 6 or they look for a camera as part of the program.

I still play the hell out of Shadow Era though. I had a thread about it that nobody seemed interested in. Any other Fatties play that?

Man, Quarriors is just junk. The app, I mean, though I'm not crazy about the game itself. The "tutorial" is a joke, explaining NOTHING. No rules, nothing. Even at free this thing is a loss.

I remember seeing Sol Forge Kickstarter - so downloading that one now. Very interested, so thanks for the reminder!

As for Assassin's Creed - I'm guessing that's on iPad. But I'm only working with an iPhone.
