Is there a trick to buying games play says wont work with your phone? I want Demons Score, yet its hidden because it claims it wont work, yet youtube has people playing it with my fone.

wont it flag my app as pirated?
Oops,I didn't realize you said "buy". I've used it before to download stuff marked as unsupported, but only F2P. I don't think you can get paid apps through there.
My bad.

Anybody got suggestions for a great Amazon App store app that's 99¢? I've got that much left in credit on there.
(Man, they need to redesign their store, feels like Android 1.0 compared to the Play store)

Plague Inc. and Scribblenauts Remix are good.
Wayward Souls has better gameplay, but Mage Gauntlet feels like more of a full game to me. It has a story and linear progression, where Wayward Souls is more like Rogue Legacy.

I actually found Space Invader Infinity Gene for a buck, good score there.

Yes. It's an endless runner with an 80s/outrun vibe. Has a couple licensed tracks by lazerhawk and miami nights 1984 too. They nailed the atmosphere, but it's still only an endless runner. I would have shat myself if you could actually drive the car.

Honestly, don't bother with FPSE and get EPSXE instead. FPSE is both troublesome to configure and runs most games way worse. It seems to have a million obscure options buried under all those menus. You can also try the pcsx rearmed core on Retroarch. It's the best psx emulator on android in my opinion, but it's missing some important things, like cd changing and OpenGL support. Still, Retroarch is free and as a bonus you get other emulator cores like mame, snes and megadrive/genesis, among a bunch of others.
Now that they canceled Titan someone might have time to do that
Made a dumb move and bought a game through the Amazon App store that did not support my device (nvidia shield tablet). It warned me of this but I thought it was more of a "might not work." thing rather than just flat out not letting me download it at all. Is there any sort of work around for this or am I just stuck with my money going into the ether?

A quick Google search shows that there are definitely ways to get the files but some of them require rooting the device.
BUt i bought FPSE
If retro arch is free ill give it a try. don't need any fancy options just want to play mgs at good fps with all effects and may be higher res. One thing i noticed is that whatever i play on fpse is very dark even on full brightness
Talk to Amazon customer service. They should give you a refund. It'll probably take like 5 minutes.
Also, your tablet is good enough to play XCOM so you should get it and play with me.

Pretty good Mobile Bundle this time. Syberia is a classic, Devil's Attorney is worth checking out, if only for the style. Bardbarian has been getting some good reviews, and Leo's Fortune and Out There are worth checking out.

Already owned several of the games, but that's a great bundle. Leo's Fortune is absolutely fantastic and one of the best looking games on Android.
Out There isn't for everyone, but certainly is a great game in its own right. I've heard good things about First Strike and Neuroshima Hex as well. With just those four games averaging $3-5 each, BTA is a no brainer IMO (currently around $3).
Even Bardbarian is a really fun game.

Shadowrun Returns is on sale for $2.49 from Google Play.
I've been going through the Steam version on my Win 8 tablet and I like playing the game better with touch on that thing than I do on my 24" monitor with mouse. Most phones would probably be a bit cramped, but I think the game is great on tablets.

Sweet.
Any one else playing Auro? The last update dramatically changed the narrative and the starting levels. They basically went from being far too easy and a cake walk to very difficult and almost impossible IMO for someone starting the game.
Anyone playing it and feel the same? I enjoyed the mechanics of it but just got around to diving back in --- only to find my progress gone and an insane difficulty change. The new narrative seems good. But I'm not surviving long enough to enjoy it unless I'm not playing it correctly. Too many enemies swarming around all at once.
EDIT: Nevermind, just saw there was a new hot fix that corrected the issue (was starting the story in the wrong place).

I'm a little biased, but I am also playing Auro.
Just wondering - what level are you playing around?There's a lot of new things and updates and tweaks in the works too. Everyone buy it, yay. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=air.DinofarmAuro
That Story mode nearly made me stop playing. I think they've improved it, but I've never played a tutorial that bad. Part of it was replaying it because it seemed like it was deleting my save, and not understanding what the "ranked" stuff was.
The actual game is pretty fun. I don't really understand why it doesn't have a "get to the end" win condition though.

I mean, that would be pretty flat. You can get to the end by just ignoring monsters (especially with Dash/Jump). The idea is to get points as efficiently as possible. The levels just split up the match. You get some HP and segments back, and then the difficulty ramps up, so you really wanna make the best of each level.
card dungeon is on android!
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.Playtap.CardDungeon#
i think this is something like that browser game card hunter (which is also coming to mobile, but with a name change into loot & legends), but this game you only control a single character instead of a 3 person party

Does anyone have a recommendation for a racing manager type game? There looks to be many, but I think some don't have "racing" or "motorsport" in the title so I can't find them all to compare.
I don't want to actually drive, just manage.
Don't care if it's free or paid, just looking for the best(nice UI, good features).

Motorsport Manager reviews pretty damn well and looks great. Only risk would be if they botched the Android port.

Guys, if you're into old school arcade Daytona, here's something to scratch that itch.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.lockstockgames.maximumvelocity
It's really cheap too. I recommend changing the controls to touch, but other than that I really liked it.

i want to play this.. but im scared its a candy crush trap..Download terra battle, download it and love it
my first impressions are that it's closest to the PAD system of giving out energy(stones) to get characters and what not... but perhaps even more pleasant as it doesn't seem to require you to spend energy to expand your roster space like PAD does (you also get exp from battles instead of having to eat a ton of monsters like in PAD)
I avoid candy crush in general so I am not sure what you mean by a trap there though
at the very least do all of us terra battle players a favor and download the game as your download will only make the game more awesome

Two more games added to BTA this week:
- So Long, Oregon!
- Mountain
I think I remember seeing So Long, Oregon! a while back. It's a sort of Oregon Trail parody where you speed over the mountains in your covered wagon. And Mountain is a mountain simulator.
sentinels of the multiverse is here!

I've been playing Bubble Witch 2 Saga and the more I play I realize that it's designed to make you spend money. :\ Maybe I'm just not that good at it, but getting a high score and sometimes even beating a level is too dependent on luck.

Question:
I'm very far in a game that doesn't have Google Play Games support.
I'm getting a new phone tomorrow, how can I transfer the game file over to the new phone?
I'm not rooted.
