WP7 DotW: May 9th, 2012

Be vengeful or benevolent for cheaper this week

Written by Suyomizzle on 09 May 12 at 14:23

This week's deal lets you fill some extremely large shoes for a little bit less.

Pocket God (WP) - $2.99 / £2.29 $1.99 / £1.49


What kind of god would you be? Benevolent or vengeful? Play Pocket God and discover the answer within yourself. On a remote island, deep in the prehistoric past, you are the all-powerful god that rules over the primitive pygmy residents. You can bring new life, and then take it away just as quickly. Exercise your powers on the tribe. Lift them in the air, activate the volcano, alter gravity, hit them with lightning...you're the island god!

Pocket God is an episodic microgame for you to explore, show your friends and have fun with. It contains multiple locations with many hilarious scenarious, exciting mini-games and hidden secrets for you to uncover.
The game can be found on the Marketplace here.

Uranium Deposit said:3 completions? No thank youYea, the game is insanely hard. And one of the achievements is a little glitchy, so instead of unlocking at 100 actions in a row (you have to make a shark jump at a guy you are holding) its 1,000, which is long and tough to do. Would hate to be in the 900s, get tired and make a slight mistake and have to start over again!

I also got this one last time it was on sale. The shark biting achiement I messed up up somewhere in the 500 range and never touched the game again,

DO NOT BUY if your doing it for achievements.

Even as as a strait game, there are better offerings out there.

i don't know why people are saying this is hard or glitchy. i got it and followed the walkthrough step by step, got all 200g in around two hours. it would probably take forever to do legit tho.

Lost my job, will have to miss deals for a bit. Too bad would have liked to pick this one up for 2. I will wait and see if in an another year or something it will hit 99cents.

Whew, saw this and thought I forgot to get the Harvest when its on sale again. Luckily it's still the sale price; went ahead and grabbed it

Edit: but I'll definitely pass on this, with the achievements it has, I'd get it for my iPod touch if I was interested at all.

I think some may be confusing this with doodle god. There is not a TA walkthrough for this one.
