Agreed, very fun but a bit pricey. I bought the iPod/Phone version for £2.39, which I thought was acceptable, but the price on Steam (which is where I first saw it) is too much for two-or-thereabouts hours of play.
Picked it up on the iPhone two days ago, you'll probably get one and a half, two hours at most out of it. Saying that, it was great fun. Didn't realise it had been out for so long... actually saw it on Steam first before realising it's also on iPhone. Looking forward to the next episode.
I recently acquired an iPod Touch 4th Gen, and have been pleasantly surprised at how fun some of the games are. My collection consists of the following:
Paid Downloads Angry Birds Broken Sword Director's Cut Canabalt DoodleJump Flight Control Mega Worm Monkey Island 2 Special Edition Puzzle Agent
Free Downloads Buganoids Flood-It! 2 Grav Runner Mr Runner NinJump NOM Paper Toss Sushi Cat Virtual Table Tennis
On a semi-related note, I was wondering if anyone who has Broken Sword is experiencing the same problem as I am. I've completed the first section as Nico and am now at the first section as George (the cafe bombing). When I try and save my game at the cafe scene, I'm booted back to the iPod Touch menu and am forced to reload my last game at the end of the Nico section. I've tried turning the iPod off and back on and re-synching the app, both to no avail. I had no problems saving the game up until this point. Any info much appreciated.
It's great fun. Capped random encounters are a great idea (though of course you can engage in non-random battles after you hit the cap if you want to level some more), and keep you at a pretty balanced level of challenge.
Awesome, about time we had some more Stooges in the genre. The fact that its marked as "Pack 01" is quite interesting, would like to see whats in future packs.
Just noticed that I mistakenly posted this on the general discussion board when in fact it was meant to be posted on the Record of Agarest War board, would be helpful if one half of the comparison was somewhere in the topic!
