I'm just downloading a big update for Monument Valley so it must mean new levels

Edit: or possibly not.... No sign of new levels

You had me looking for it last night!

But is now available on the Google Playstore, 8 new levels for an IAP! (€2.28)

Mr E

New Humble Bundle from the excellent Crescent Moon games....

Crescent Moon. Full bundle. While the moon might not be a full one, we've filled this bundle to the brim with Android games. And with potential bonuses ready to be unlocked, this bundle is ready to burst at the seams. Pay what you want for Space Chicks, 2-Bit Cowboy, Neon Shadow, and Ravensword: Shadowlands. Pay more than the average price, and you also get Topia World Builder, Shadow Blade, Mines of Mars, and Blocky Roads. Pay $8 or more to get all of that plus the alpha versions of The Deer God and Exiles: Far Colony and the full games once they're released.

Jack Lumber is free game on Amazon today, enjoyable little slash the item game. Worth a download, relatively small file size too (34mb).

TuneIn has finally got chromecast support! Update is being pushed out at the mo.

Just came across this on playstore. Live sports for free.

Seems pretty good so far.

Assuming because it's on playstore it's OK to talk about here.?

Can't imagine it'll be on the playstore for too long. There's no legal way of watch sky sports and BT sports for free on your phone.

Great quality but man the ads are a pain in the hole

Dozen Wicked Words

Mine keeps saying I have a problem with my Internet connection. Maybe it's too slow, or the ad blocker causing it to fail.

Got my invite this morning but haven't got around to using it yet. Looks good so far anyway.

I have not heard of this but am interested. How do I get an invite?

You can't at the moment as sign ups are closed. Also it won't run on lollipop while in beta so it no use to me and probably a lot of people who have already upgraded.

Pretend you are watching the Toy Show on TV3,the ads will seem normal after that.

I found that app the other day by accident,it's great,Bein Sports also for 3pm games not on tv.

If you have a rooted phone it should be easy take care of the adverts.
MOAB on xda works a treat for annoying ads.

Tried watchin the mnf on sky sports with this app but wouldnt load the channels. Its like the streaming sites gotta be on pretty early to get it

Shifty Shellshock

Great app, that sports thing. Even has a load of American channels. Really cool on the tablet.

Thargor

Still cant believe how good that Sports Streaming app is, watched the whole ManU match the other night in HD with about 2 buffering pauses of <5 seconds each. Also I hate watching F1 in low quality so its good to have such a clear stream of Sky Sports F1 always available.

Thargor

Oops, forgot I came in here to say the World of Tanks MMO has been released for Android at long last:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.wargaming.wot.blitz

The IOS one gets good reviews, free to play aswell but it is a 1 GB download.

Bellu

Really thanks for the cool sharing. Would like to download some games for my little daughter, as she likes dance now.

I've seen loads of these kinds of apps and they usually last a week or two!
None can be as bad as AceStream though... what a buffery loads of garbage. It won't even work properly with a LAN cable on a Core i7...

The_B_Man

FYI, u can fix that buffering in AceStream easily. http://acestreamguide.com/buffering/

Is there an AceStream for Android? And if so, can it be mirrored/cast to my smart telly?

I tried all of those settings, but I'll see if those specific numbers on the link are better than the ones I used. Ta.
BTW, I opened the port for Acestream in my router. If I have done this incorrectly, would this stop AceStream from working at all or just give me crappy speeds, the latter of which is what I'm getting now?

The_B_Man wrote: »

There is, I used it on my Google TV dongle, but the buffering drove me mad. (it's an old Rikomagic though, so maybe it just wasn't up to it, though I can torrent at >1Mb/s so I doubt it).

Tried it the other night when a load of games were on,the app gave links to all the games.A good few were in HD,even the SD ones were good quality.

The Russian streams were excellent quality.

Is MOAB better than Adblock Plus??

Only ever used MOAB so can't answer that for you.

gerrybbadd

Is MOAB a ROM though, rather than just an App?

Personally I find AdAway very good.

A special price at the moment, one cent short of a euro.

Very entertaining game. Imagine the realm of Machinarium with a nod and a wink towards the world of Professor Layton.

Thanks for recommending this, downloaded on Friday and completed today.

Although some of the achievements didn't register on play, so will have to replay again. Need to use the Help system allot because some of the solutions are not that obvious!


Has anyone played GRAVITY: DON'T LET GO?
The graphics look really cool for it

I tried this again with those settings and I can get nice stable streams on my laptop, but only with certain stream sources (usually the Russian language ones unfortunately). I might try the same streams on my Android TV stick and see how stable they are (though that streaming sports app mentioned here is so good I might not worry about it too much for a while...)

I have a Nook HD+ with its rubbishy version of Android (couldn't get CM10 to pair with my iCade over bluetooth) solely for Mame4Droid....is there an app or launcher that would go straight to Mame4Droid when the tablet starts up please? Thanks!

Thargor

Taskr is the default answer to questions like that but there might be a better app just for startup applications.

TellTale's Game of Thrones now available <<<<< Playstore link.

TellTale's Game Of Thrones Adventure Title Is Already Available On The Play Store <<< AndroidPolice link.

I'm waiting till I'm on a free wifi to download it. If you liked the Walking Dead games, you will probably also enjoy this.


Another game I'm currently playing is The Cave from the same makers of Monkey Island.

corkie

Anyone else get game of thrones?

I'm seem to be stuck under the cart and keep dieing, (playing on a nexus 9).

Your prompted to crawl forward, but he doesn't do it fast enough and cart collapses on top of him. Anyone know the method to get pass this stage?


Nevermind I figured it out!

When the Button appears, keep taping it and an option to swipe will appear!

Where's this setting. Ive gone through all the settings that I can find and can't find that one. Whenever I go off the app the music stops.
My YouTube app is the latest version.

I think it only works if you have a Google Play Music subscription.
