Hi Everyone -

Now that the Team-Up info has been shared - In other news, Android users will get a nice surprise and find that Marvel Puzzle Quest is part of the Google Summer Sale and starting tomorrow (fyi – you may even see the promotion start today) and will receive 30% off purchases of Hero Points and Iso-8. As well, all new players will receive a 2* Wolverine cover as a free starter to set off their MPQ adventure. This special promotion runs through August 6th.

- Thank you!

    Maybe this should be a Sticky?

    This is a very significant sale and a great deal for android users...... But why not for IOS/ITunes-enabled devices and phones?

    I know myself as well as many others play on IPhones/IPads and are feeling very left out and disgruntled.

    Will we be seeing a similar sale soon hopefully??? I think it's only fair to run such a big sale evenly across the board of all operating systems/platforms.

    Thank you.

    I think it may just be worded poorly...meaning the app is on sale for the Android, but the HP/Iso sale is for everyone. At least I hope that's what they mean.

    We've run platform specific sales before and will continue to do so as the first parties involved allow for it. We were part of the Steam Summer Sale recently as well which was another platform exclusive sale. In cases of sales like these it's simply highly dependent on first party support for them which is less likely to occur if the featuring isn't exclusive to that platform. That absolutely doesn't mean that we won't run platform agnostic or iOS exclusive sales in the future, just that this one is Google exclusive in particular.

    Thank you ICE I understand how the first-party system works much better now. Hopefully we can arrange a similar sale soon for the iOS platform as I know myself and many of my teammates wanna stock up and be prepared for the highly anticipated Deadpool Character release.

    Thanks again for the quick response It's great to see you active on the forums.

    To be honest why are you using iOS in the first place? Get a droid and enjoy your freedom

    Would really like to see iOs sale as I just spent some coin last night and saving 30% would be a bonus.

    Do we have an idea of how long this Google Summer Sale will last?

    Freedom from what exactly? Currently I enjoy freedom from splintering and 90% of apps not working because they were designed for a different device

    Facebook keeps my game sync'd between my galaxy and iPad. I can also make purchases through either.

    I had a few android devices but don't anymore. They were complete garbage and couldn't stand using them even with several games that were playable and sync-able across both. Unfortunately you can't use iTunes gift cards you receive on the google store, otherwise this would be a great option

    You could calm it if you applied the same sale on all platforms.

    As platform neutral (I'm a steam user) request, can you stick to this sort of of sale in the future. I think it's gonna be little more enticing seeing cheaper prices than bonus resources. The steam summer sale did have 30% off but only on those terrible packs which force you to get Iso and hp together.

    The Steam Summer Sale deal was pretty garbage if you didn't want ISO though. There was no option to only purchase cheaper HP, you had to buy the Add-On Content Downloads.

    I will never spend any money on this mess of a game.
