Both Cut the Ropes and Ice Age Village for Windows Phone updated

With all the big news virtually Halo: Spartan Set on and Jetpack Joyride popping upwards this calendar week, we've gotten slightly behind on our coverage of Xbox Windows Phone game updates. Now that things take slowed downwards a smidge, it's time to discuss those patches.

Both of Zeptolab's Windows Phone games Cutting the Rope and Cut the Rope: Experiments received minor updates only a few days ago. It might be tough to tell what changed on your own, but we've got the details! And Gameloft'south Ice Age Village got its second and most welcome update. Head past the break for the full story on all 3 games!

Cut the Rope (Windows Telephone seven or eight)

A few weeks ago, Cut the Rope received a sizable update that added iii new level packs to the game. It also overhauled the menus, adding a new section with links to YouTube cartoons starring lovable series protagonist Om Nom. Quite an update.

Well, the version i.3 update doesn't bring any new levels to the mix – we're already caught upward with the iOS version there. It does withal bring new content to the Cartoons menu. Come across, version 1.2 only listed the commencement 13 cartoons in the Om Nom Stories series. This new update adds the latest two cartoons to the listing, including the one shown in a higher place.

As for the salvage data loss bug that has plagued some users of the game since the very offset, readers take reported that it remains alive and frustrating in version 1.3. You might want to avoid this update in hopes that Zeptolab finally squashes the bug in a future patch.

Cutting the Rope: Experiments (Windows Phone 7 or eight)

Disappointingly, the Experiments update does not add the missing Pismire Colina level pack to the game. Equally such, our version still lags behind the iOS game.

All the same, the update at least fixes a niggling bug that had been snaking around, nibbling on the food the game left out at night. Whereas the start game lacked narration, Experiments introduced a scientist who makes little comments during gameplay. He adds a footling pizazz to the game, but sometimes you need to serenity things downwardly without adjusting your phone's main volume. Prior to the update, toggling the voice in the options did not really turn it off. Version ane.1 corrects that.

Ice Age Village (Windows Phone 8)

Price: Free! Download size: 73 MB Shop Link - Review

Ice Age Hamlet launched in a fairly buggy country. Non enough to ruin the game, simply the social features didn't work properly.

Later a couple of weeks' time, gamers too realized that one of the game's Achievements was broken. If a player attained a 5-star village rating, a dissimilar Accomplishment popped instead of the intended ane. Not just that, just the game bugged out afterwards that, forcing players to remove objects from their village in order to lower its rating.

Well, I'1000 pleased to denote that the version 1.2 patch actually fixes the 'Most Famous' Accomplishment, making it attainable to all. Well, not attainable to people similar me whose Friend ratings have bewitched out, but I could reinstall to set up that. Despite the mostly loftier quality of Gameloft titles, their games are often plagued by broken Achievements. This marks the get-go time that the publisher has actually fixed a game so that its full 200 Gamerscore can be unlocked.

The gift icon at right did not appear before the first update.

Equally for the social features, Facebook integration has more often than not worked since the version 1.1 update. Connecting your Facebook business relationship provides the benefits of being able to ship gifts to friends and the ability to spam your Facebook wall with messages.

Fine things, but yous can't actually add friends FROM your Facebook list. The just way to add people y'all know (as opposed to random players) is by connecting your Gameloft Live account to the game. And ridiculously, that feature remains broken. You'd call up that interfacing with their ain online system would be like shooting fish in a barrel for the game's devs, only apparently not.

Still, outside of the broken Gameloft Live integration and the general friends list randomly disappearing, Ice Age Village remains a fairly high quality urban center building game. I still play information technology daily.

Thanks to Guilherme and TNT Judbud for the tips!
