Tuesday, 23 November 2010 10:10

Another wave of Android games with OpenFeint is set to be unleashed onto the Android Market today. While not as big as previous waves, this one has a total of 8 games, officially, set to land on the market today. I say officially because usually there are a few more developers who time their games with OpenFeint to come out during these waves.

Games:

Jet Car Stunts - True Axis
MUST.EAT.BIRDS - Mediatronic
Solipskier - Mikengreg
Frogger - Konami Digital Entertainment
Bomberman Dojo - Hudson
aTilt 3D Labyrinth - FridgeCat Software
Word Mix - Greenrift Software LLC
Kilgamore Castle - Hyperbees

As you can see, even though the list is smaller then previous waves, it features some big named companies and games such as Hyperbees, Konami and Hudson. A nice, varied selection of new games for you to try out today! You can check out the official press release below including some interesting statistics such as download numbers:
