In case of Alteil closing, what are some good substitutions

[idol]

As title, and I think its a good time to touch on this topic, just in case.

Something that requires thinking, no installation, not too much time, free to play and not chess.

Thx

I've heard playing the game of Life can be quite entertaining.

Good substitution is to never do business with any of Asian made Free to play games evah. They're only interested in their asian customers and not foreigners.

elements the game is a good option which fills most of the criteria

Alteil japan may also be a good option if they do not close anytime soon.

League of legends seems good but requires a download. Also many other games out there.

There are many more games out there

Signs were all there - Gamepot has a reputation for have short - life games and alteil was a static/ dying game to begin with.

I expected alteil usa to close down sooner than later. Bit surprised so soon but it was inevitable. Had some fun though

How do people feel - A waste of time, and money and since time is money. Especially really high level people with lots of cards.
I managed to get many prebuilts for 500 gran which was good fun playing.

May be a blessing in disguise. Stops people 'wasting' more time / money on this game. Myself and many other players come into mind especially those consistently getting on weekly ranking.

Feel sorry for taiwan players - they came here after taiwan closed down. Now us closing down. Only other option Japan alteil unless you play another game. Better to just stop and substitute it with something better.

Well Alteil. You drove me nuts, got me to lose my mind, spend more money than I care to admit in public on this farce of a game and now its going to officially die. The hard lessons I learned here will not go to waste. They will serve me well in Sword Girls and beyond. I recommend Sword Girls. Yeah its not as "deep" as Alteil is but its solid in its own right.

You would think I would be mad about all of this...but I'm not. I'll just take it as a hard lesson and move on, laughing about how my prediction came true (I said the game would be lucky to live past this year, and that was being generous). Balancing was a joke, the pricing was terrible and Falkow...well, I got the last laugh cause they no longer got a game to BS me in. And I'm only scratching the surface.

Also, since the game is going under WHY NOT GIVE US ACCESS TO EVERY LAST CARD IN 3's UNTIL IT GOES OFFLINE FOR GOOD!? o_O

1. Sword girl is a crap game. I am disturb anyone would recommend a game where you don't even have to understand what is going on and be able to win.
2. Your prediction is wrong still. If you read the forums or visit chat you would know that.
3. I can't believe you are recommending crap girl.
