Shuffleboard Master is a game of skill. It's a realistic 3D simulation of the real table game. You have full control over the puck - speed, direction, and point of release. That means it'll take some practice to play well. Hone your skill against the 7 levels of A.I. opponent as you advance from Beginner to Zen Master, and beyond. A.I. OPPONENTS There are 7 levels of A.I. to beat. They get more accurate as you advance. They also get more aggressive, sometimes choosing to attack your pucks if it means taking the lead. You'll need a strategy to beat the Masters. 2-PLAYER IN-PERSON GAME You can play against a friend by taking turns on your iPhone or iPad. FUN STUFF Motion Streaks • Fast moving pucks look even faster. Homing Pucks • Guide themselves toward your enemy. Do-Overs • Re-throw your puck when you really need it. Instant Replay • Re-live that game-winning shot again and again. Pick Your Puck • Now, 5 designs to choose from! Fast-Forward • For when that realistic friction is taking too long. Closeup View • See a closeup of the scoring zone to play your shot. TIPS & TRICKS From someone who's played more than 7,500 games... • Lay your phone or iPad on a flat surface instead of holding it in your hand • Don't move it around while you play, especially don't twist it • Fling your puck with a finger (not your thumb) • Get your forearm and wrist in the game (not just your finger) • Touch your puck, then drag it around a little before you fling it • Don't just put your finger down and fling it immediately • You'll improve quickly over just a few games I had a lot of fun making this game and play-testing it. I hope you like it too. Let me know at http://funnerware.com/feedback .

About

Hash Imperium

Read full description

Power is cheap in Kazakhstan, Iceland stays cool and the wind blows in Texas — only the price does whatever it wants. Hash Imperium is a business simulation in the spirit of the strategy classics of the 80s and 90s, built around a mining farm for the fictional currency HashCoin. As a mining manager you buy sites at four locations from Texas to Kazakhstan, set up racks, negotiate power contracts and decide every round: sell your coins or hold them? Expand or save? And what do you do when a rival cuts your line? Whoever ends up on top is the crypto tycoon. YOUR FARM • Four locations with their own power market, climate and rules: Iceland, Texas, Scandinavia, Kazakhstan • Seven hardware generations, air, hydro and immersion cooling, risky overclocking • Spot price or fixed-price contract — heat waves, grid failures and storms keep every bill exciting • Halvings cut the block reward in half: only those who upgrade in time stay in business MARKETS AND MONEY • Candlestick chart with zoom, limit and stop orders, an OTC desk for fixed prices • Bank loan or crypto loan against your coins — and the dreaded margin call • Auctions for sites and the hardware of whole rivals EMERGENCIES AND THE DARK SIDE • Minigames: overclock chips, lay cooling pipes, fight fires, fend off cyber attacks and ransomware • Security, audits and insurance protect you — sabotage against others is possible, but the authorities are watching RIVALS AND GAMES • AI rivals with a character of their own: Rational, HODLer, Industrial Giant and Black-Hat Miner, in three strengths • Hot seat for up to four players on one iPhone or iPad • Three game lengths, three victory modes, starting scenarios and seeds of your choice • 30 world events, from ETF approval to a crypto ban ATMOSPHERE • 90s pixel art, a control room full of life, a synthwave soundtrack • Pixel-art cutscenes — from the intro to victory • News anchors and an operations manager with a voice — in English and German • Guided tutorial, tips the first time something happens and a glossary of every term FOR EVERYONE • Colour scheme for red-green colour blindness, text size up to 130 %, motion can be turned off • Plays fully offline — only buying the full version needs the internet • No ads, no data collection, no account Free to play: the short game in Iceland and Texas with up to two players. A one-time in-app purchase unlocks the full version with all locations, game lengths, AI archetypes and up to four players — no subscription, no ads. Please note: Hash Imperium is a game. HashCoin is a made-up currency — no real cryptocurrency is mined or traded, and your device does not compute anything for anyone.
