I like what ic so far
Nice looking sandwich there.
Look good
Added a ton of screen shots!
Looks like a fun game. Can't wait to try it out!
This game seems interesting. I like the "plus" feature, which allows you to compete with friends. Social networking games are huge (ie facebook) and i'm glad ngmoco is really pushing for this. I hope its free for us too...
This game has taken over my afternoons. I have an unnatural attachment to these needy hippies and am constantly checking in on them. So far the gameplay is quite engaging and the design and animations are easy on the eyes.
Very fun. Glad I'm Canadian so I can play it. (Well, I'm glad I'm Canadian for all kinds of reasons. coughcoughuniversalhealthcarecough Seriously American, get on that.)
Sad that its only free in Canada.
It looks interesting, I'll check it out when it comes to the U.S.
pocketgod with social networking? Looks fun tho.
Actually... pocketgod on steriods...
Dose any one know when it going to hit the us ????
pocket god 2 eh
Looks very interesting and immersive (from what I could tell, when it was in focus)but I find social gaming to have excrutiating down times.
Looks fun. The power of God in your little finger!
when is this game going to get to the US. I can't wait to spend all my class time playing it.
I would have already tried this out with my "Canadian" account but I've been left with a bad taste in my mouth after being unable to complete the tutorial in 'We Rule.'
Thanks for the footage though. If my girlfriend sees this, I don't think I'll have a choice but to download it.
Looks like a great game to compete with some of the other game out ther.
Looks good! I can't wait for it to hit the US store.
I will not pay for any of the extra stuff, but man does this game look awesome. This mini Black and White cant reach the US app store fast enought
this game is really fun. downloaded it with my canadian store id.
Hope they do lots of updates to add more and more features like pocket god
I like this game. Seems really fun.
i feel like this game is going to be a hit! great way to get a social networking game like what fb is doing. it would have tons of players competing with one another. i just hope the servers don't get laggy from to many users
Taking concepts and graphic cues from Rolando to produce a unique social networking experience. I like it.
Ok, I really like this little game. I grew pretty bored of another certain deity-esque game, and this seems to really have a lot more going for it than "throw pygmy. Drown pygmy. Kind of do interesting mini game with pygmy." Come to the US iTunes store! Stat!
I'm really looking forward to trying this game out when it's available in the US. It looks really fun, though I'm not so sure about paying real money for the 'awe' stuff..
I may just have to get this game. Sounds kinda fun
So can you really play this without spending money? I don't mind buying apps up front (I own both Rolando games), but dislike the pay-as-you-go "free" app model.
Don't just help the planet, smash the planet , too, lol!
This looks like an interesting game. When does the US get this again?
This looks pretty sweet. US version please?
Definitely looks neat!
Looks like fun, bring to US! Love that people are being more adventurous and really exploring the potential of the platform.
This looks fun - I wonder when it'll be available in the US.
this game is really fun. downloaded it with my canadian store id.
So far the gameplay is quite engaging and the design and animations are easy on the eyes.
