Plant of the Week - Aloe - was offered between May 19, 2024 through May 26, 2024. Aloe is a member of the Reinforce-Mint family. Aloe costs 75 Sun. (-25 Sun at levels 5 and 10.) Aloe heals 400 hit points to the plant on its immediate right. (+50 healing per level except levels 4 and 8.) Aloe can heal every six (6) seconds. (-1 second on levels 4 and 8.) When given plant food, Aloe heals all plants in a 3x3 area around it. This effect happens every time Reinforce-Mint is planted. Commentary: While the obvious use case would be for plants like Wall-nut or Tall-nut, Endurian would be a nice plant as it damages zombies who eat it. Same with a powered up Murkadamian Nut. Chard Guard would be nice allowing for quicker regeneration of the leaves. Pumpkins would also be a nice plant as it would allow for some melee plants like Bonk Choy or Snapdragon to be better protected while being on the front lines. Bottom Line: Aloe's 75 + Pumpkin's 150 = 225 Sun * 5 = 1,125 Sun which is quite a lot to spend on defense. Aloe + Wall-nut = 125 which is not a bad block. Although Tall-nut costs the same and has many more hit points, blocks fliers and saves a column. We do not “hate” Aloe. It's not a bad plant. We just find the use case quite limited. (Survive for X minutes.) The game also requires the player to eliminate the zombies and Sun spent on defensive plants is Sun that is not spent on offensive plants.

So what you see is what players get. We also try to vary the strategies from week to week and showcasing different plants and strategies and ideas. Using the same strategy week after week would be boring to see. As always, if you appreciate these videos, learned something from them, please subscribe. This incentives me to continue making these videos.

The Beast Dungeon was offered between May 19, 2024 through May 25, 2024. This video shows the completion of the Undead Dungeon for May 2024. Each dungeon lasts one (1) week and consists of three (3) levels which must be completed as a gauntlet. No swapping of leaders or troops is allowed and must be completed by a leader of the faction of the week. Completing the dungeon allows for Army Upgrades which allows certain minis in certain spots to gain up to three (3) levels. Warcraft Rumble was released on November 3, 2023. Based on the World of Warcraft cast of characters, Warcraft Rumble is a miniature 4X game where each round lasts no more than four (4) minutes. This game is designed to be played on a mobile device and does require an internet connection, although it does run quite well in an emulated mode on a personal computer. Bucking the trend of most mobile games, Warcraft Rumble has NO ADVERTISING! We appreciate this trend by Blizzard. That said, they do have a store for micro-transactions. After all, the bills need to be paid somehow. We'd rather have a store than the constant barrage of annoying, intrusive and data-sucking advertisements.

35 Aloe seeds are awarded for completing this event consisting of five (5) levels. Plant of the Week - Aloe - was offered between May 18, 2024 through May 25, 2024.

What is Emoji Guess Challenge? Emoji Guess Challenge is a game where a word is given and the player complete the word using the supplied emojis. It makes more sense once you have done a level or two. Is there any objectionable material? This game has no objectionable material. At least that any reasonable person would find objectionable. What are the pros and cons of this game? Pros: Young children can play this game. People who are not thrilled about playing games but who can converse in emojis can have fun with this game. Cons: There is no soothing background music. That would have been nice. Some of these puzzles are puzzling. A skippable ad appears after every three (3) levels. What's the bottom line? Emoji puzzle games are definitely a change of pace from word games, puzzle games, Match 3 games and games based on some sort of violence. But that is all that it is. The ads break any kind of rhythm one can get into. Bottom line - this game is OK. AI generated Background Music generated from https://ai-music-magic.audoir.com/

Adventure Capitalist is the 1st idle clicker game from Hyper Hippo. This game takes the idle clicker concept with the goal of making as much money as possible. This video shows the beginning of the Profit-A-Bowl event which ends on May 20, 2024. Since there is not a lot of time left in this event, we just wanted to get started and not worry so much about efficiency. As you would expect from a mobile game, there is advertising and micro-transactions. However, none of these were forced - just optional.

Knobsters is a game where the player rotates one knob 90 degrees clockwise. If a path can be made, the color of the receiving knob will change and that knob will be rotated and the cycle will continue until there are no more moves which can be made. This game has no advertisements. This game has no objectionable material. This game feels like a proof-of-concept project which was released. This game sorely could use a tutorial and simple levels so that the player can get a feel as to how to approach levels. Otherwise the player will just randomly turn knobs and hope for the best. Strategies like when to abandon a color and go to another one. Is there an ideal way to maximize knob turns? How should one approach a block where all the knobs are locked into themselves and not easily accessible from the rest of the group? This game has no background music. The background music is provided by https://ai-music-magic.audoir.com/ That said, there is potential here.

~~~~~ What is Boomland? What kind of game is Boomland? ~~~~~ Boomland is a destruction game along the lines of Angry Birds. Unlike Angry Birds where the player launches birds using a giant sling, the player places explosives in strategic places and attempts to do as much damage as possible. ~~~~~ Is Boomland “Pay to Win”? What do you get for spending real world money? ~~~~~ We have not found any money transactions in this game. ~~~~~ Is there any objectionable material in Boomland? ~~~~~ If the player is comfortable with the idea of blowing stuff up, then nothing else in the game will be objectionable. ~~~~~ Is Boomland fun to play? Is the game challenging? Is this game a grind? ~~~~~ There are times when someone will have the desire to blow stuff up. There are times when someone wants a different kind of game to play. Boomland fits that description. Boomland can be challenging although we have found this game more frustrating than challenging. We do not mind learning and experimenting to clear a level. However when one is failing dozens of times, we believe the game may be frustrating. When we are failing dozens of times, we believe that the level is too difficult. ~~~~~ What about in-game advertisements? How many are there? How intrusive are they? Do you get anything for enduring them? ~~~~~~ We have not encountered any in-game advertisements. We applaud this game for that feature. ~~~~~ What are the pros and cons of this game? ~~~~~ Pros: A simple game to pick up and understand. The player gets to blow stuff up - sometimes sky high. Has background music. Cons: Very difficult game, especially in the early levels. While this game has a 3 level tutorial, this game could use a longer one to learn the nuances of the game. ~~~~~ Do you recommend this game? ~~~~~ If one played Angry Birds and got frustrated because one could not get the birds to do what was desired, this game eliminates that frustration. If one enjoys destruction-type games, this one will suffice. As far as children goes, we will leave that up to the parents. While we have found nothing beyond the obvious, it is that obvious that some parents may object to.

Adventure Communist is the 2nd idle clicker game from Hyper Hippo. The first was Adventure Capitalist. This game takes the idle clicker concept of making as much money as possible and puts a communist twist as well as add a few features. This video shows the Anew Atlantis until tier 3.4. We went about as far as we could go before the grind starts to take over. As you would expect from a mobile game, there is advertising and micro-transactions. However, none of these were forced - just optional. This event ends on May 21, 2024.

Jewel Charms and clones like this are a Match-3 game. Players make matches of three (3) or more to complete objectives. ~~~~~~~~~~~~ How does this differ from the other Match 3 games out there? The graphics are pretty. Combos of 4 or more give power ups. There are other variants that make this game interesting. Jewel Charms and its clones appear to be more of a campaign type game with options - free, advertising and real money. We will progress through this game as needed. ~~~~~~~~~~~~ Any objectionable material? As with many games, there is an attractive woman who guides you. While not objectionable in itself, there are some individuals who would not appreciate the reinforcing of negative female stereotypes. We have discovered that Jewel Planet and its clones are indeed the same game with very minor differences. It appears that one copied/stole the game from the original author, re-branded the game and have released it under their banner. We find this practice disgusting; and we do not know who the original author is. We've actually found four (4) games under the "Jewel" name. All these games can be found in the Google Play store so Google hasn't discovered any is clone of the other.

〰️〰️〰️ What is Jigsawscape? 〰️〰️〰️ Jigsawscape is a Free-to-Play jigsaw puzzle game. 〰️〰️〰️ Is Jigsawscape “Pay to Win”? What do you get for spending real world money? 〰️〰️〰️ Jigsawscape is not a pay-to-win game. Jigsawscape does have a real money option which gives access to more puzzles, more hints and the removal of all advertisements. 〰️〰️〰️ Is there any objectionable material in Jigsawscape? 〰️〰️〰️ If there is any objectionable material, I was unable to find any. This is a good thing. 🙂️ 〰️〰️〰️ Is Jigsawscape fun to play? Is the game challenging? Is this game a grind? 〰️〰️〰️ These are jigsaw puzzles and as such, highly dependent on the person. There is a fine line between challenging and frustrating. The same situation can be challenging to one person and frustrating to another. A grind however, this game does not have. 〰️〰️〰️ What about in-game advertisements? How many are there? How intrusive are they? Do you get anything for enduring them? 〰️〰️〰️ Forced advertisements appear at the completion of the puzzle. They may appear at the beginning of the puzzle as well. We encountered one during the puzzle itself. 〰️〰️〰️ What is the story in Jigsawscape? 〰️〰️〰️ There is no story in Jigsawscape. 〰️〰️〰️ Is this a commitment game or a casual game? 〰️〰️〰️ Jigsawscape is more of a casual game. One works on the puzzles at their own pace so the level of commitment is determined by the player. These are the sizes offered for each puzzle: 6x6 8x8 10x10 12x12 15x15 20x20 What are the Pros and Cons of this game? Pros: Beautiful pictures. Option for different sizes. Option for rotating puzzle pieces for a more real-world feel. Free daily puzzle. Past daily puzzles are available. Cons: No music offering that we could see. Need to complete lots of puzzles to unlock some of the collections. Subscription is pricey. Bottom line: If you are a fan of puzzle games, this is not a bad offering to pick up.

Heroic Missions are unlocked once the player has completed the requisite fifty (50) levels in adventure mode - through Tier 10 Map 5. In order to clear each Heroic Mission, each boss must be defeated by a leader from each faction. In other words, five (5) separate defeats. This is made more difficult as the mini levels for each boss is increased by ten (10), in addition to other unique effects that these bosses have. We show how to defeat each boss with each and every faction. When defeating a heroic boss, the player receives a major tome of the leader's faction.

This is the idle game "The Tower". This is a run at Tier 4.

~~~~~ What is Connect? ~~~~~ Connect is a tile match puzzle game where the player removes like tiles that are adjacent to each other or can be reached by drawing an unobstructed path between the tiles. ~~~~~ Is Connect Pay to Win? What about in-game advertisements? How many are there? How intrusive are they? Do you get anything for enduring them? ~~~~~ We have not encountered any advertising or payment structure in this game. Games without those features are few and far between and we celebrate those games. One can pay $0.99 to remove the banner ads. One can pay $0.99 to unlock all tile skins. ~~~~~ Is There Any Objectionable Material in this game? ~~~~~ We're sure someone somewhere can find something objectionable with this game. We just can't find anything remotely objectionable. ~~~~~ Is Connect fun to play? Is the game challenging? Is this game a grind? ~~~~~ Connect is a good “change of pace” type of game. This is a game where can you play when you have a few minutes to kill. We wouldn't use the word “challenging”; but this game can get frustrating. We wouldn't use the word “grind”; but this game can get repetitive. All games get repetitive but some more than others. We must note that there are difficulty levels in this game that are not readily apparent. There is a “gravity” feature which can be non-existent, pull tiles left, pull tiles right, pull tiles up, pull tiles down and pull tiles to the center. ~~~~~ What are the pros and cons of Connect? ~~~~~ Pros: Easy to play. Young children can play this game. Simple mechanics. Generous number of reshuffles granted - eight (8). At most, only two (2) shuffles are needed to clear a level. Cons: No soothing background music. No music at all. Only two (2) tile skins are given. One can watch an advertisement to unlock another tile skin or pay $0.99 to unlock all skins. No indication there is more to the game than repetitive levels. Would be nice to know that it exists. Bottom Line: This game could use some music. Apart from that, this is a great game to let young children play and add to their library. AI Music generated from https://ai-music-magic.audoir.com/

This is the idle game "The Tower". This is a run at Tier 2.

This is the idle game "The Tower". This is a run at Tier 8.

What is Trivia Master? Trivia Master is a game where the player is given a series of five (5) questions and must select the correct answer multiple choice style. Is there any objectionable material? This game has no objectionable material. Granted, we have not gone through all the trivia questions in the game; but we are reasonably confident there isn't anything offensive in the game. What are the pros and cons of this game? Pros: Large variety of categories to choose from. Thousands of questions in the database. While there is a good hint system which is encouraged, one does not need to use hints to advance through the levels - assuming the player is OK with failing and retrying the level again. Multiple choice system of selecting the answer. Cons: There is no soothing background music. That would have been nice. A skippable ad appears after every few levels. These questions definitely fit in the trivia section and not the general knowledge section. What's the bottom line? Fans of trivia will like this game with the thousands of questions in the database. Casual trivia players may enjoy testing themselves on categories which interest them. “Trivia is information and data that are considered to be of little value.” Some people enjoy such things. Others do not. Your enjoyment of this game will be based on how you view trivia. Bottom line - this game is OK.

D7 is a game where the player needs to strategically play 2x1 “pills” on the board in such a manner that each color can only touch its own color. When such a blob reach seven (7) or nine (9) in size, then the blob will disappear. So in this manner, this game is a combination of Tetris, Dominoes and Woodoku. This game has no advertisements. This game has no objectionable material. This game has no music; which is why you hear no sound during the game. This game feels like a proof-of-concept project which was released. This game sorely could use a tutorial and simple levels so that the player can get a feel as to how to approach levels. That said, there is potential here. As is, this is not a bad game to keep in reserve and play it every now and then. The background music is provided by https://ai-music-magic.audoir.com/

~~~~~ What is Mini Restaurant? What kind of game is Mini Restaurant? ~~~~~ Mini Restaurant is a restaurant simulation type game with a touch of real-time strategy and time management techniques baked into the game. ~~~~~ Is Mini Restaurant “Pay to Win”? What do you get for spending real world money? ~~~~~ Strictly speaking, Mini Restaurant is not pay to win. Although the grind in this game starts early and builds up that the prospect of watching advertising to save a few minutes of impatiently grinding, sorry, trying to build up to an upgrade, that the game ceases to be enjoyable. So paying removes the advertising requirements for these little perks ("offers") which appear every so often in the game. ~~~~~ Is there any objectionable material in Mini Restaurant? ~~~~~ Strictly speaking, no. Some may desire more diversity in the customer base but if that's the worst objectionable material, the game will be appropriate for everyone. ~~~~~ Is Mini Restaurant fun to play? Is the game challenging? Is this game a grind? ~~~~~ We are a little biased here. We prefer challenging games. We prefer games that make us think. We prefer games that force us to expand our minds. That said, we also understand the need for casual games. We understand the need for “mindless” type games. We understand that even young children can benefit from playing easier type games. All that being said, we do not find Mini Restaurant to be fun or challenging. We definitely find this game to be a grind. ~~~~~ What about in-game advertisements? How many are there? How intrusive are they? Do you get anything for enduring them? ~~~~~~ In-game advertisements do exist in this game. You can choose to view some for in-game currency which is almost required - as that is better than aimlessly wasting time waiting to accumulate enough in-game currency to get an upgrade. ~~~~~ Do you recommend this game? ~~~~~ Bottom line, no. We absolutely HATE saying this about any game. We want to support the developers and understand that coding and debugging games can be an arduous task. We have found some buggy elements which detract from the game. It's a shame too. This game could be good for children learning how a decision can have an impact. Do I purchase another table or do I hire another chef? Do I make the restaurant prettier or do I learn new foods? But there are so many ads and requests for ads that we simply can not recommend this game.

~~~~~ What is Mini Crossword? What kind of game is Mini Crossword? ~~~~~ Mini Crossword is what it sounds like - a miniature crossword puzzle. ~~~~~ Is Mini Crossword “Pay to Win”? What do you get for spending real world money? ~~~~~ You get hints. You can get hints by watching advertisements or by paying real world cash. ~~~~~ Is there any objectionable material in Mini Crossword? ~~~~~ There isn't any objectionable material that we have found. After all, this is a word game. ~~~~~ Is Mini Crossword fun to play? Is the game challenging? Is this game a grind? ~~~~~ For those who enjoy crossword puzzles, this game can give you a nice dose without the commitment of larger puzzles. As with any word puzzle games, challenging is a relative term. It all depends on your skill level and vocabulary. Is this a grind? Only if you need to do multiples in a short time. ~~~~~ What about in-game advertisements? How many are there? How intrusive are they? Do you get anything for enduring them? ~~~~~~ We have encountered mandatory advertisements. 😢️ Fortunately, these were skippable. Putting the device in airplane mode stopped that. ~~~~~ What are the pros and cons of this game? ~~~~~ Pros: Small crossword puzzles. Levels are short. Hint system which can eliminate letters, give a letter or solve the puzzle. Cons: No background music. Limited sounds. Can only solve the puzzle from the top down. Can not use process of elimination to solve the puzzle. Can only select letters once you have incorrectly submitted a solution. Some of the words are not found in a standard dictionary. ~~~~~ Do you recommend this game? ~~~~~ While the lack of skins and music are not deal-breakers, we simply find the lack of solving the puzzle your way instead of the forced method to be a deal breaker. We have a policy here of not using hints or power ups to clear a level. We want to show that the games and puzzles have solutions. When we need to use a hint on a puzzle game because we could not solve it - even with online dictionary assistance - we just do not think this game will be enjoyable to anyone outside of the dedicated crossword puzzle crowd.

This is the idle game "The Tower". This is a run at Tier 5.

Adventure Communist is the 2nd idle clicker game from Hyper Hippo. The first was Adventure Capitalist. This game takes the idle clicker concept of making as much money as possible and puts a communist twist as well as add a few features. This video shows the State Science until tier 3.4. We went about as far as we could go before the grind starts to take over. As you would expect from a mobile game, there is advertising and micro-transactions. However, none of these were forced - just optional. This event ends on May 15, 2024.

Adventure Ages is the 3rd idle clicker game from Hyper Hippo. The first was Adventure Capitalist and the second being Adventure Communist. This game takes the idle clicker concept of resource management and puts a story about fixing the space-time continuum. This video shows the beginning of the Japan in Jeopardy mini-event to tier 5.1. We went about as far as we could go before the grind starts to take over. As you would expect from a mobile game, there is advertising and micro-transactions. However, none of these were forced - just optional.

Adventure Capitalist is the 1st idle clicker game from Hyper Hippo. This game takes the idle clicker concept with the goal of making as much money as possible. This video shows the beginning of the Live Rich and Profit event which ends on May 16, 2024. Since there is not a lot of time left in this event, we just wanted to get started and not worry so much about efficiency.

What does this video show? This video shows Word Connect for the levels listed in the title. What is Word Connect Pro? Word Connect Pro is a Cross-word lite game where a group of letters are given and the player needs to fill the puzzle using only those letters given. How to play The player drags the pointer across the letters to make a combination. If this combination is a word, the player will be rewarded. Review of the game? The music is relaxing. The concept is fine. This game is good for those people where English is their primary language. Some of these words may not be known to non-native English speakers. However the word list leaves much to be desired: Some words are not known to the game - like MAGE. Some words are known but their plural is not - GAME is acceptable and GAMES is not. Some words are accepted in some levels but not in others. The game considers SAGEM, GPS and DIY as words. They are not. (Sagem is the name of a French company and GPS is an acronym while DIY is shorthand for Do It Yourself.) So this game needs to reconsider its dictionary file. We used a Scrabble dictionary to find words which stumped us - and still got stumped. What about advertisements? When connected to the Internet, an advertisement will appear every 3 or so levels. This game uses a cloud save feature over local storage. So if you enter airplane mode to play, remember to connect before you close out the game to keep your progress. Any objectionable material? You have to really go deep to find anything objectionable in a word sorting game. Words like SHIFT can be rearranged to have a naughty word shown. While the word is not counted as an acceptable word, or even a bonus word, some parents would be bothered if their young child accidentally saw it. So what is the bottom line? Is this a worthwhile game? As word puzzle games go, this is not a bad game - but with the aforementioned caveats. Just be warned that this game may frustrate you at times.
