I found the [Wall Destroyer Wiki](http://wall-destroyer.wikia.com/wiki/Wall_destroyer_Wiki). Apparently, there are a total of 50 walls, and the last one requires 5,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 damage (in addition to the over 340,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 total damage needed just to get to that wall).

I was about to say, just you wait…but the game is still far from over. It’s got a cool little story line.

Has anyone tried [Kittens](http://bloodrizer.ru/games/kittens/#)? I’ve been playing it for a while and it’s got the same problem as sandcastle builder for me where it is just so so slow to get anywhere.

I have been playing AdVenture Capitalist a lot recently and have found it strangely addicting. There’s some interesting strategies involved in deciding when to restart your business to gain angel investors and when to buy the upgrades (with in-game money or angels themselves). I play it on Android but I have seen a version of it on Steam too.

Anyone try [Idle Sword](http://www.gamesbutler.com/game/25925/Idle_Sword/) yet? I was playing on my android tablet and though it was a fun time waster.
