Well, I was going to buy The Settlers yesterday. I’d spend a few days reading about it, trying to decide if it was worth £2.99, then finally decided it was. So I went off to the App Store, only to find that I couldn’t buy it because the price of the game was being increased to £3.99. So, no Settlers for me. I know it’s only a quid, but I’ve got £13.44 of credit that needs to last the next couple of weeks and there are a lot of games coming out – every pound counts.


Another Gameloft game is £2.99 at the moment, though, so I thought I’d try the demo version of Dungeon Hunter to see if it was worth the cash. Well, it’s a very short demo, but it seems like a decent, competent action RPG that basically only exists so you can pore through menus seeing if wooden boots are better than ceremonial boots. (They are, by the way.)

I’m reasonably tempted, but I think I’ll wait to see what sort of reaction Ravensword gets when that’s released in the next week or two. (By which time Gameloft will probably have put the price of Dungeon Hunter back up again, but that’s the App Store for you.)
