game cache is too big [Archive]

I have 3 of your games installed, and they each need about 20MB for the cache to run properly. I don't have that much space on my phone's internal memory, so I have to clear the cache from the other 2 games before I open the 3rd game, or the images don't load and the game runs really slowly.

The screenshot below is what happens I visited one of my neighbours without clearing the cache from the other two games. As you can see, half of the tables don't load, so it's really hard to tip.

This is really annoying, and could be solved if the game cache was stored on the SD card instead.

You should have an option to move the games to your SD card.

All of my games are on the SD card, but the cache is stored on internal memory

Then delete a few things from your phone. Is it an iPhone?

No, it's Android. And deleting other apps won't work, because my phone only has 200MB of internal memory, half of which is taken up by essential system files. The three games together need 60-70MB just for the cache. Anyway, I know it's possible to store the cache on external memory, because I have other apps that do it. I'm just requesting that the developers change this for the next update.

I don't know then. I've never owned an Android. Sorry.

I'm android. I currently only have farm story installed. I have 98.96 mb on my internal storage and 15 mb on my system storage. I have about 100 apps currently, and my system storage isn't even 1/3 full. My internal storage is 1/16 full. You should look at what apps you have that are unable to be moved to sd and delete them If you don't need them.

You can try clearing out unused applications from your device, or at least clear the cache for apps you don't use that often. The general rule is... if you haven't used an app for over a year, you should uninstall it from your device.

My 98 mb i mean are from farm, not total storage.

You might want to take into mind apps that are running in the background of the phone. Take, for instance, if you have an antivirus installed. Keep in mind that the antivirus would be constantly running in that background scanning whatever it scans and that can cause you phone to use more internal memory. Now you may not have an antivirus, but another kind of app. I used antivirus as an example. Hope it helps. :-)
