Namco Bandai generally releases their games onto multiple platforms including both Android and iOS as well as consoles. In fact they have more games released on other platforms aside from Android. However it appears that Namco Bandai are gearing up to release a new RPG that will be exclusive to the Android platform. The hit iOS game Dungeon Crawlers from Drowning Monkey Games, which we reported on in January of this year, has made its way over to Android in the form of a temporary Xperia exclusive. While these exclusives are usually solely for the Xperia Play, this particular one is for all Xperia brand smartphones, not just the Xperia Play. Usually when we talk about a board game being converted over to a mobile format for Android. However, we get to report on the exact opposite of that for a change which is also highly unusual. D20 Studios, developers of the popular multiplayer strategy game Hero Mages, has just been picked up by Game Salute and will have Hero Mages published as an actual board game. It seems a lot of classic games are being remade and revamped for release on mobile. Another one in currently in the works called The Bluecoats - North & South which is being remade for mobile by Microids. For those of you unfamiliar with this game, The Bluecoats is an action-strategy game set during the Civil War period. It was only yesterday that we mentioned Digital Tales would be bringing their Battleloot Adventure turn-based strategy games to Android and now we get to report that the game has been launched and is now available on the Google Play Store. Back in November we announced that Hero Mages by D20 Studios was finally available on the Android Market. This is a cross-platform multiplayer tactical strategy game that also blends in elements of RPG (leveling, items, etc) as well. This particular title is rather detailed as well as it includes things such as LOS (Line-of-sight) and other features normally not included in these types of games. For those of you unaware of what Orcs Must Die! is, it's a game similar to Dungeon Defenders except you'll be placing a variety of traps and other painful things, and sometimes even support troops like archers, to kill waves of monsters, mostly pissed off Orcs and similar creatures. Trap Hunter TD bring this type of game to Android. D20 Studios developed this gem of a game and it’s pretty under-the-radar. I don’t think I would have even known about this game if DroidGamers hadn’t mentioned it before I started homing my blogging craft (which is very much a work in progress). So I decided to take the game for a spin, and I’m absolutely glad I did. We have been reporting for awhile on a tactics-style strategy game that comes with cross-platform multiplayer called Hero Mages from D20Studios. This game has been out for awhile in a browser version and was slated for release onto Android. Well the good news is that it's now available and we've got some goodies to give away to help celebrate it's launch. Invictus Games has released their mobile version of their PC/Console game Greed Corp. Invictus Games is also responsible for the upcoming Race of Champions game for Android which looks pretty slick itself. Greed Corp HD is a turn-based strategy game that also takes into account the effects of resource gathering on your lands environment. |
