I've downloaded this... All I get is an "error accessing server" message. Like I said, rubbish.

The griefers have taken over.

Once you have a bomb, wait for someone to become visible writing or drawing something intricate, then wipentheir shit out just as they finish. I was doing a whole thing and got near the end and lostit all, moved to another area, same thing happened. Testing for coincidece (theres 24 million cubes left on this layer and only 8 thousand people playing now) i tried again another two or three times. Each time, I got a way into my design and boom. Yu never see bomba going off at other times.

Griefers. I'm losing my impetus to keep chipping away now.

Molyneux 'praying to the gods' that the Cube stays online.

You've got to admire the man's talent for hyperbole.

Was tapping away while wtching the election yesterday. Had over a hundred thousand coins, well on the way to getting a chisel or whatever it is. Wile tapping away, I glanced down and my coins were down to thirty thousand. I kept tapping thinking this would get sorted, it dropped somehow to nine thousand.

Restarted the app and it stuck on nine thousand. Uninstalled.

The advantage is it might remove someone from the game making it more likely they will win. Like building a hotel on Mayfair.

How do you zoom out to see the cube? Pinch to zoom out, but it hardly works :/ How do I 'use' the 'menu' on the right? It just breaks the cubes underneath?

I seem to be the only person tapping away on the cube?

0/10

I just read this. I'm always amazed at how servers can never cope with the stress of what should be, normal traffic. It's the same for ticket websites that always crash on big release days.

I'm sure he'll spin it with his bullshit to say "we are overwhelmed at how well it's been received" or some such shit.

You mean nobody has bought the diamond chisel?

ZOMG!

Anyway, several layers of the cube have been completed. Were there prizes for that shit? If so, did anything come of them?

I don't think there's any prizes until someone gets to the middle of the cube.

That's lame.

Still, I wrote 'CUNT' in massive letters on the cube. That'll do.

Looks like usuall Molyneux shit. I wonder if the winner would even bother 'playing' etc. That'd royally screw them over.

The person who won Curiosity gets to 'guide' this game. Hmm.


edit: And the guy giving that review is one of the people who wrote that Charlie Brooker thing that was on last weekend.
