I still play Ascension every night. I am constantly in a game (getting my butt kicked) with momongi, inthenetsc, buckeyefitzy and rainynight65. When I say always, I mean always. I look at the results screen, shed a tear of disappointment over losing and hit the rematch button. When you consider that I have played this game every day since I purchased it for my iPad back when it came out, that’s one hell of a nod to the folks at Playdek and Gary Games.
I just found out that the latest expansion, Immortal Heroes, has been released for iOS and now I wish I were home to download it. It looks like you’ll now need a Playdek account to play online once you download the expansion, and you are downloading the expansion, right? Playdek is suggesting that you download the the free update to Ascension, start Ascension and log in with the same GameCenter id as usual, create your Playdek account if you haven’t already for Agricola, check to see that all your player stats carry over and then do the in-app purchase for Immortal Heroes. The expansion will run you $2.99 which is a small price to pay to beat me at Ascension well into next year.
I still enjoy playing this game and have about 8 opponents that I play against nightly. I’ll definitely be picking up the new pack and checking it out.
Indeed, grabbing it right now, even though the second expansion was already pushing my cerebral limits ??
The custom registration process was surprisingly painless (as was the wordpress one here, I might add).
I am still enjoying my daily rounds with you two gentlemen – all my other opponents being sadly long gone.
Brandon, you are doing yourself a disfavor, as I can attest you leveled up a couple of months ago -I don’t want to think I might be aging-, and you have been winning the majority of our (formerly momon’s) games lately.
I’m all wrapped up playing the SolForge beta. That game is downright addictive and I haven’t touched Ascension since.
Granted, now that I’ve been reminded, I fully intend to fire ascension back up.
