    Woah this thread exploded! Guessing it's good? Great find this week Gabrien. Is the game like Dungeon Raid? If yes then I shall buy it.

    Edit: 11 five star reviews? That sold me. Buying now.

    This game is so good. Instantly bought it based off of the front page review and am not disappointed, it warrants all the praise it has recieved. By far and away the most fun I have had with a puzzler since dungeon raid.

    I think it "heals" you a little bit, giving a small time boost.

    Good call Gabrien!

    This is a frantic endless sidescroller affair where one must overcome obstacles (monsters, chests, doors, etc.) by matching enough of the appropriate symbols as you run down the hall to the right. One nastier aspect of this system is that matching keys when there is no lock in front of you or swords when there is no fight going on are simply wasted moves (the little breaks the game hands out where you are just running down an empty hall are a great time to gather resources). Your goal is to eventually get a single run highscore over 10 million.

    To aid you in this endeavor is the fact that after each run you can spend your hard won gold, experience, and resources to upgrade your skills and equipment. Every time your character levels up they're given access to a new dungeon difficulty with a bunch of new mission objectives (completing them nets you buckets of gold). If you want to do a little simpler grinding for resources, you can make a run back a few difficulty levels and easily walk through encounters that previously would have kicked your ass. The only disadvantage of dropping back levels is that you'll have a lower score multiplier and no bonus objectives to complete for extra gold.

    I believe it's an actual bug - and breaks the game completely unfortunately. I don't have missions on any of the difficulties (this point I only have two, the Rookie and Wayfarer). Would love a fix or a word from the dev. :)

    scroll up a bit the dev is at his job and when he gets off he will look into them and be on here to answer questions, this stuff will get fixed.

    for the bug have you closed back to home screen, ended the task by double tapping home button ? then relaunching it.

    have you grinded a bit to get gold and materials to unlock\upgrade your buildings?

    Any chance of getting iCloud on this baby? Though I'm suspecting the game won't be as long I'd like, but then again I don't wanna be glued to my iPad for a year. Love the game, a little familiarity with a little originality, so yummy :p

    Anyone having the bug where you can't go to the next difficulty, try re-installing the app. Worked for me. Awesome game!

    What a great game. Although I dont like this genre I got hooked to this awesome endless-puzzler. I am wondering what we will see in 'freedom'.

    Great concept, I tried it, but it's no fun for me, I simply don't like the real-time puzzle genre. Hopefully it will be a success and spur more puzzle/rpg hybrids, including turn-based ones.

    P.S. I also had to turn off the music after about ten seconds.

    Your missions carry over to the next difficulty so you don't need to grind the easier stage to complete them.

    I'm current at Dungeon Master difficulty with 5.9 million. Stuck at the 3 missions that seem impossible.

    Gain 800 Stone and 800 Wood.
    Perform 5 Triple Matches
    Perform 120 Matches.

    I think my alchemy potions are preventing me from completing the first mission. Going to try and get that later.

    Edit:

    Ok I completed all 3 10 minutes after I posted. :)

    This is one game that I suck at but still can't stop playing!

    For some reason, I've always been better at traditional match three tile swapping. And even though it isn't a big difference, the sliding rows and columns throw me off.

    But I'm hooked!

    im the same way, you get better with practice ive already gotten alot better just gotta keep playing it, also the skills help cause there are abilities to slow down the scrolling at the top etc...

    also to pause the game there is no way in the game but if you double tap home button it pauses the game and if you put the device to sleep also.

    Maybe we can get a $0.99 IAP that adds a pause button. ;)
