I have been working through the mine stage for some time now and could not see any end to it. Looking on the forums I notice I should have a return arrow at the top of the screen to return to the other game screens - however - I don't. Is there any thing I can do - or is it a re-install ?
regards
ian

I'm in the same boat - I have no return arrow even after deleting and reinstalling.

Same problem. NOTE: there's no arrow if you "keep mining" in the TUTORIAL STAGE. That's where I am now.

You're done for, I don't think there is a stop to this. Try to do a update at the App store on your iPod/iPhone. If that doesn't work, try to reinstall.

So, what you mean is that when you go to the mine for the first time, there's no other way to pause the game or exit the mine, but with the home button which closes the app? And you can't go to the menus either?

matcher: Pretty much. You have to level up and play the mining game all the way through (the experience bar must fill up and level you up) before you can see the back arrow. But don't worry, levelling up the first time takes only like two minutes! After that, you'll be able to pause/see all the menus, etc.

I've been sitting here playing it for over half an hour. It told me that I could either buy my way out or keep mining. I tried hitting "buy my way out" and it just took me back to the mining section. I'm trying to lose on purpose to go back to the main screen but it keeps helping me out, "helpfully" destroying some blocks for me. My experience bar is full and flashing. What else am I supposed to do here?

oh boy.
so here's what is going on: filling up the glowing bar (exp.) has leveled up your character. Because it's your first game you must level up Strategist. It then asks if you want to buy challenge or continue.
Buying a challenge takes you to the store where you buy scrolls to make weapons, armor, and tools.
Continue, well that should be obvious.
The problem you have is because "buying a challenge" is part of the story/tutorial! You were supposed to go there so it can teach you what to do in order to build scrolls.
Normally hitting continue isn't a problem as you exp bar is clear and you can fill it up again. BUT in your case it fills up and does nothing, why?, because you have nothing to level up. All the other traits are locked until you finish the training.
So, Tap the arrow on the top left. At the top of that screen is a large red button that says "stop mining". This will give you credit for the elements you collected and take you to the map. If the arrow is not there in 1.0.1.1 then you need to delete it and start over.
Play again, fill up the exp bar, and go where the prompt tells you to go.
go to the store, and follow all the prompts. Go to the smith and follow all the prompts.
Hope that helps!

I followed your instructions, but tapping "Buy challenges" simply returns me to the mine. There is no arrow on the top left, and I have reinstalled several times.

yep. theres a major bug in this version of a.f. After upgrading to the new version, you loose ALL character info and status. When starting up, i get the startup movie and then the mining field with no arrows and no where to go. Hope this update didnt distroy all that i worked on these last few months, otherwise im dropping this game permanently. what a shame...
Warning to all: DONT INSTALL VERSION 1.0.1.1 Wait for a fix on this and keep playing the older version for now.
