SW4024 MANUAL

Add to that its thoughtful game-design touches, and Spelltower is a great value for word-game fans. Spellsword is an excellent and almost blindingly fast-paced arena-combat arcade game with addictive RPG elements, super-cute 16-bit fantasy art, and often hypnotic chiptune sound. At first glance, Spellsword shares some similarities with another great game, Super Crate Box: Both have you dodging enemies and chasing powerups around a satisfyingly cramped playscreen--but Spellsword adds a couple of twists, with a mini RPG-style purchasing system (you collect "rupees," which you can then use between levels to buy equipment and make your powers more effective) and a unique take on power-ups with "spell cards." As you bounce around the (sometimes moving) platforms on each level, weaving through tight clusters of enemies, you have to choose between rushing to the next spell card to release some wide-ranging deadly effect (such as fireballs, poison, or a "shadow slime" black hole) or to continue fighting with your sword, which temporarily carries the power-up for your previous spell card (ranging from a simple fire sword to a devastating wind generator). While simple at first, especially with the straightforward objectives of early levels (like killing a certain number of enemies), this combination sets up a devilishly gratifying tactical choice every few seconds: you know what power-up you have and how much longer it will last (the seconds tick off onscreen), and you know where the next spell card is (often somewhere inconvenient and menacing) and what it will do, and you know what

you're fighting and how much health and/or time you have to finish the level. This simple, cyclical gameplay makes for a tightly wound clockwork of arcade satisfaction--and hard-to-resist, once-more-unto-the-breach repeat play. We'd love to see improvements--like additional levels, cross-device syncing, and more thoughtful costing of the RPG purchasing--but as it is, Spellsword is a very fun and addictive game. And as an indie game, Spellsword deserves extra praise for leaving out in-app purchases for additional rupees. At a time when Facebook seems to keep adding apps, curating news feeds, and pushing users to connect with as

many other users as possible, Sw4024 Manual, the blossoming social-sharing app for iOS and Android, is doing just the opposite. It's trying to keep things small and simple. While the idea of social networking on a smaller scale may seem strange, it makes a lot more sense once you get to know Sw4024 Manual. With no brand pages, groups, event invitations, or Bejeweled requests to clutter its experience, this young social network is all about sharing personal moments with loved ones. That's it. That's why it limits the number of connections you can have to 150 (a number that Sw4024 Manual believes is the average number of true friends a person has in life). As with any other social network, getting started on Sw4024 Manual means creating an account and populating a profile. Your name, e-mail address, and a photo will do, but you can also add your phone number and birthday. Like Google Plus and Facebook, Sw4024 Manual gives you a slot for a cover photo, where you can upload something a little artsier than your standard head shot. Once you're all set up, the first thing you should notice is Sw4024 Manual's interface, elegantly designed and head and shoulders above that of Facebook's mobile app. It's easy to zip around and share things, and the entire package just looks and feels...better. Tiny details like the emotion icons and the time stamp that appears as you scroll through updates make it a pleasure to keep tabs on fr
