Mobile Friday - Alchemists’ Garden - The First Hour

Today is Mobile Friday and i'm playing Alchemists’ Garden. This is a game that i had been seeing ads for and they got me curious. it showed the game has a battle mechanic similar to Puzzle Quest. Other than that, i didn't know what to expect as each ad seemed to show different aspects of the game. So it was unknown what i would see and when.

This video shows the first hour of the game. it shows there is a small additional data download, a small un-skippable tutorial, and how the game opens up and encourages the player to explore it.

Mobile Friday - Candies 'N Curses - The First 50 Minutes

For today's Mobile Friday i'm playing an older iOS game called Candies 'N Curses. This video shows the first 50 minutes, but if you're interested in the game, you can play it in short bursts rather than in one long session like i did.

It's a game that hasn't been updated for a bit and it works mostly fine. i had a couple of issues where swiping down sometimes brought the whole screen down. it would obscure the bottom part of the game which does affect gameplay. there was also a slight issue where a notification seemed to be cut off a bit by the FaceID notch.

Mobile Friday - Cats & Soup Part 2 - After a Week of Playing

For today's Mobile Friday i'm back with part 2 of Cats & Soup on iPhone. In last week's video, we learned that the game was an idle game. So, we weren't able to properly judge what the game was. In the video i talked about making a part 2 showing what happened during the week. And that's what i did.

I used my phone's screen recording feature to take videos of significant events that happened during the week following the first video. for the first two, i forgot to turn the sound on but for the rest of the video there is sound.

Mobile Friday - Cats & Soup - The First Thirty Minutes

Today's Mobile Friday is a look at Cats & Soup on iPhone. I've had this game installed on my phone for a while but hadn't tried it. Unlike previous videos in this series where i looked for games on the game charts in the iOS store, this one was picked more out of curiosity. This video is shorter than others in this series but that's down to the style of game it is rather than any issue with it. Oh, and this video is the first to feature my new audio recording microphone!

Mobile Friday - Alchemy Stars - The First Hour

On this Mobile Friday, I'll be playing Alchemy Stars on iPhone 11 Pro. I'll be playing from the first start of the app and for about an hour. This is another game where i didn't really know anything about it going in. Since playing it, I've learned that the game is rather big and has a big following on social media. So if you're interested in it after watching me play, i'd recommend having a look at the community surrounding the game.

Mobile Friday - Micro RPG on iPhone - The First Forty

On this Mobile Friday, I'll be playing Micro RPG on iPhone. I'll be playing from the first start of the app for around 40 minutes. I didn't really know or remember much about this game. I had installed it last week and mostly forgot about it. But when i started playing, i remembered why i chose it for this week. i was curious whether there was much to it beyond it's cute artstyle and i'd say i was pleasantly surprised. I might've played a little longer if it wasn't for dying. 

Mobile Friday - Guidus on iPhone - The First Forty

On this Mobile Friday, I'll be playing Guidus on iPhone. I'll be playing from the first start of the app for around 40 minutes. Going in, i didn't know anything about it. I saw the game in the app store and picked it because the icon looked interesting. I tried not to read anything on the game page, so i was a little surprised to find out it was a rouge lite. In this video you'll see me do a few runs after the intial tutorial.

Mobile Friday - Alice Ficition on iPhone - The First Hour or So

Welcome to this week's Mobile Friday.

This week i'll be playing Alice Fiction on my iPhone 11 Pro.

Going into this game i knew nothing about it, apart from what was written on it's app store page, and this video shows gameplay from the first time you load into it.

It's a long video and you'll understand why as you watch it. But it's worth watching as the story is good, the graphics are standout, and the music is very catchy.

If the comments to this video ask for it, i could play it again for another hour or so for next Friday's Mobile Friday video segement.
