I’m still freeing the monkey on level 2 of the seed level in Brogue. Someone help me free the monkey. They say to attack it but that seems mean. Also I loved Frozen Synapse. But I don’t remember you playing it, Tyjenks. Nevertheless I need help with the monkey.

Really, just spank the monkey and everything will be fine.

Yeah, I did not play a lot and was a forgettable opponent. :)

Seriously, attack him Dave. It will give you a prompt to free him.

Spoken like a tricksy monkey!

The Jim and Frank Mysteries is free as a launch promo. Looks like a high quality adventure game with puzzle elements. Not sure how long it’ll stay free.

A couple of interesting games are free today - Solarian Tactics (looks like a turn based strategy game with rpg elements) and Wraithborne (an action rpg).

Well, the price is certainly right on this one. I’m having fun with it so far. I remember originally writing it off for being another Zynga game, but it is hardly that at all.

I’d never heard of Star Command until recently. It looks neat. Their fans sure seem awfully entitled/grouchy, though.

Can anyone recommend to good, kid-friendly tower defense game on ios? My 3.75 year old has taken a shine to Field Runners 2 but I’m a bit uneasy about all the carnage being unleashed at his fingertips. Surely there some kind of decent TD game with, I dunno, butterflies and marshmallows or something? Thanks!

Gus_Smedstad1 · 2013-04-09T04:21:38.000Z

The Creeps. It’s a near exact match for what you want.

So true. My boy loves it and its an easy pick-up game.

Gotta love a tower defense game where one of the top-level towers is a flashlight.

Presume you know about Plants Vs Zombies?

Kildar · 2013-04-09T08:32:56.000Z

Free Angry Birds Star Wars. US Appstore only. Its a StarBucks promo.

Sigh. I had the greatest run I’ve ever had in any roguelike going in Brogue yesterday. And I used the suspend feature, and now it won’t restore (it’s beta, I know!). Can’t quite work up the ambition to play again (yet)…

Thanks, that looks perfect. Also, yeah, Plants vs Zombies, didn’t think of that. Cheers!
