This is probably a foolish question, but I guess the fallout game has a lot of that waiting mechanic? 

It's essentially a builder game where you harvest resources and set your dwellers to do tasks like harvest, train or explore the wilderness.

Building is instant as long as you have the Caps and the monetization is limited to buying lunch boxes - no 'pay to rush' crap :D 

candybox2 is crack

Although somehow autosave turned itself off, which is a bit disheartening. 

Just have to progress enough to bring back the load game menu. It's odd that even that is disabled at the start. 

Thanks for the recommendation Drew, this game is fantastic. Feels so familiar, but I don't think I've played anything just like it. Excellent strategy game, the tactics around the movement are really satisfying, it's almost chess-like at times, but with spears and demons so obviously better. 

Since I didn't contribute last time...

Alphabear by Spryfox is a pretty cool "make some words" game in the vein of Scrabble, Boggle, etc.

ijed: Thanks for the suggestions. Lumosity is cool -- I wish it was like 5$ and everything was unlocked right away

Tap Titans was way too monotonous. 

Not so much a recommendation as 'I was forced to play this'...

I think I deleted it after the above post. 

Happy Wheels!

The game is fun enough, watching yourself get mashed into pulp, impaled, shot, blown up etc. but I'm now stuck on building levels in its fully functional level editor!

Doing inventive things with giant fans, spikes and bounce pads.

Traps should ideally humiliate as well as dismember. 

I'm playing it on iOS, the original flash game is from 2010: http://happywheelsaz.com/happy-wheels.happywheels

Doesn't look like there's an Android version yet.

Interesting browser game where you perform operations on multiple stacks of cubes to create the desired final result. I haven't played much yet because it is very awkward on my phone screen. Not sure yet if it ever gets really challenging.

Good catch. That was a rare on-topic spam measage

Aardappel's game has been taking up a lot of my of my phone gaming time lately. There's a few bugs (of which he's aware) but the core gameplay is fully functional and a lot of fun. 

I remember liking that when he first made it, nice and simple.

Has Aard done anything more on Lobster or made any other games do you know? I know he's working at Google now... but I've lost track of what he's up to now since I don't go on Facebook and that was how I knew what he was up to. 

As far as I know that's the only complete game. On the site there's links to a Minecraft style game and a shmup game but they seem to be just demos. 

Yeah, that's all the stuff he put up he released Lobster. 

Awesomely put together, but would like it to be harder. The very last level of forgotten shores starts to get interestingly challenging so here's hoping for more...
