Infinite Multiplier?

[ender78]

I ran into a situation where the multiplier kept on going [eventually ending up at 200 where I exited the mine]. I now have all the crystals and resources I could want These are the bugs I love

- time icon stayed on screen entire time [floating from top to bottom occasionally]
- blocks were added from top [one water resource usually]

I believe this happened in horizontal mode.

This has sort of happened to me a few times. My game will get stuck on multiplier mode, but I only usually get to about 20x before it stops. It doesn't seem to matter how slowly I play the game, as long as I keep putting blocks together... It seems to me that this usually happens after I pop a hammer block, and then manage to meld one of the blocks that started glowing. Has anyone else noticed this?

happened to me too, much to my amusement. was rotating the ipod to get more rows fill up, until i started getting multipliers regardless of whether i was doing chains or not. i reached x124 before exiting the mine. upon reentry was taken to upgrade and now have ridiculous amounts of resources... also, it appears that while mining i very often complete a level by merely turning the device up/down and left/right and letting the tool blocks do all the work. all of a sudden from 100-ish crystals i go up to 7000s and complete the stage...

Specific steps to reproduce this bug:

Get two identical tools on a single row in such a way that they are separated by a blank space as shown below
0 0
xxx

One tool will disappear and then reappear. This locks the tool onto the screen.

1. After this locked tool reaches the top of the screen, auto-scrolling and two-finger push to advance resources from the bottom of the screen are frozen. Inverting the device to add resources does still work.
2. I have done this with Furie and Strategist tools, and from the two other posters, it appears Time Stopper can do this as well.
3. Even though resource scrolling is stopped, you *can* be forced out of the game if you allow too many resources to stack. I'm not sure of the mechanism though since as I said, scrolling doesn't work.

while i concur with the inability to scroll up in the mine, in my case i don't get kicked out of the mine even if all the blocks fill up. i get a message that since it is the first time happening, the game will delete a couple of rows. now that has happened about 15 times. as i continue rotating the ipod [hold it with thumb and middle finger and just tap it around] i get the ridiculous multipliers and periodically get rows deleted. i've ended up with:
551,597,366 crystals
1,025,200+ fire
1,052,900+ water
938,590+ plant
1,068,800+ wind
1,011,800+ moon

at the same time, after having maxed out all the tool and essence mastery, i have been stuck in "enlightened level 4" since a couple of days ago.
hmm..

After further testing - you do not need identical Tools. Any two Tools separated by a space on the same line will have this happen.

And yeah, some times I get the "Since this is the first time" message, but I think mileage may vary on that particular symptom.

got to almost 400x multiplier...lol
ended up with close to 100,000,000 of every resource...haha

My touche is stuck in a loop where I stil get a looping crash sound even outside of AF I like the rotate trick, takes too long to level though

[logista]

I've had this twice now (both times were unexpected). Unfortunately, the second time my resources/crystals etc. went to -21 zillion and now I can't build blueprints because the counts reset to 0 when I restarted the game. I still have -21 zillion crystals, and I can buy stuff with them.

where can you see the multiplier you got? o.O'

[thejuggler]

The multiplier appears in bug (yellowish) letters on top of the game board each time you get a combo. Only stays on screen for a second or two

This happened to me once accidentaly. Now i have been trying for an hour to get it to work lol. Any tips?

I got this bug too, and it's great to have done before starting the molten level puzzle. *Which I cannot complete. So here are the screen shots of what I got.

well, i had this one also but and i do not know why but in my case it looked like one tool block was blocked and i couldnt move it by touching. It was moving with the rest of block but not laying on the top of the stack. So when i was changing position of my ipod it was falling down and this way it was quite simple to play. And my stack was moveable with fingers but i got bored before x200
