Cory Trese $170 brand new from Best Buy with price match guarantee good for next 30 days. Now to find a cheap Keyboard and I'll be set. No more trying to write stuff on a miniscule screen that the virtual keyboard hides 2/3rds of. Guy at Best Buy told me I should be able to route the Tablet through my PS3 to my TV so at least for some things may have a lot more realestate to work on. Well your resolution will stay the same as your tablet even if it's hooked to your TV though...

I hate you, I hate you, I hate you! I go to take my wife to the doctor's office and you release a new Episode! I missed HOURS of fun!) p.s. once I bought Episode 2, you should no longer tell me it is now available. Also WHAT A RIPOFF!!!! Episode 1 has 24 Dungeons, and 2 towns for a total of 26. Episode 2 has ONLY 20 Dungeons and 4 towns for a total of 24! I want more!!!

Realize that with 2 less, that's 7.69230769% less fun. Edit: fallen states that this is E2A1 and actually has 66% more fun than E1A1. I sit corrected.

Swami - the release is Epsiode 2 Act 1. Remember that Episode 1 Act 1 only had 14 dungeons. Your numbers should indicate that this is MORE fun.

vdx - sorry, I don't understand the question? The update adds new story. Did you already purchase this on your device? A confirmation would be nice. Pardon my lack of clarity: Purchased and installed. Playing now :-) As for my update question, I was attempting to express concern that soon after making headway into E2, a update would come out adding stuff to a point I've past. Similar to some of the frustration people expressed about the E1 updates seeming to come out after people complete the areas that got secret doors. It's a mild, and mostly playful, concern. Great game and I left a 5-Star review. I dislike most turn based games but this one really handles the turn based aspect well. I was a little confused about the comments about E2 costing a dollar. A dollar for days of game time. I remember when NES games ran $20-50 bucks in the early 90's. I wonder if people understand the amount of work it takes to make even a simple game. Anyways, less talking and more playing.

vdx - most likely, the first series of updates will all be introducing content all over E2. We will continue to introduce new content and changes to E1. This trend will be pretty constant. I know may drive some completionists a little insane, but it is how we build our games. In E2, you'll have a better situation in which the world is much more open to you. So, when we introduce the first new E2 subquest, you can still go back and get it.

I have a feeling the new monster AoE spells will kick my ass! I always like to keep my group tight! In E2A1 you need to master keeping your guys at diagonals -- learning to avoid the Area 1 "cross" effect. Drill Sgt Trese steps forth and looks at the new HoS recruits: "GET ON THE DIAGONALS, THE ENEMY CAN KILL YOU ALL WITH ONE GRENADE!" Starts back inside, then turns again: "IF THE FRAKING RATKIN CAN DO IT, THEN YOU CAN!" Continues inside muttering under his breath: "But they had the ROUS to teach them, what can I do to match that?!"

VincentD - E2 is proof that we played nice in E1 YIKES! ...hides cowering under bed with only tip of pom-pom tail showing.... Seriously, I'm waiting impatiently for Amazon or Desura to get this out there (I've given up on Apple). Can't wait to get my butt kicked!

Had my first few serious fights in E2A1 and I'm thinking maybe the Roof Top Limbo wasn't so bad. Sure, I couldn't progress the game, but my party was equally safe from the sadistic monsters that seem motivated to turn my Thief into dog-chow. She's going to need a lot of upgrades to her melee skill just to to survive. Her Bow and Dexterity is maxed out which made for impressive feats in E1A2, but man, she's got block some of those melee hits in E2A2.
I anticipated needing to adjust in E2, but wow, some defensive abilities for my range attackers is a must. My Warrior was heavy in defense , so was my Cleric, which is the only thing keeping the party alive. as I play hide and seek with the Thief and Mage. Fall back and re-group is not a sexy battle cry, but it's working... for now.
Too bad I couldn't use that 10k+ gold from E1 to hire a few of the Baron's mercenaries.
