Call of Mini - Zombies Review: The good and the bad of zombie games

You may not know this about me, but I am a huge fan of dual-stick shooters. Age of Zombies, Monster Shooter, Weapon Chicken. I have literally played them all and probably spent way too much time with them, but there's just something about the addictive gameplay in dual-stick shooters that I can't put down. And the fact that I can play some of the greatest dual-stick shooters (In recent years) on my phone/tablet is amazing in itself. Dual stick controls shouldn't be a problem on touchscreens, because of the simplistic control-scheme. But that isn't always the case, so let's look at what's up for review today: Call of Mini Zombies!
Zen Bound 2 Review: Slow and simple wins the race

Playing Zen Bound 2, the new puzzler from developer Secret Exit, is a wonderful example of how a game is not always a game. Not really. Sometimes these funny things we talk about are really just activities, things to do while we lay or sit around the house. If we’re lucky these titles we buy and download become something more than just a series of button pushes. If we’re really lucky they lead us to a familiar place or wonderful new area. Zen Bound 2 really does more for me than many games that are much more, well, game-like.

Horn has been one of the most awaited titles to hit Google Play in recent times. After being shown at the Google I/O running on a Nexus 7, Horn has been creating the buzz in the Android gaming world. A console-like gameplay on a touchscreen device was what it touted. Developed by Phosphor Games and published by Zynga, does Horn deliver?

So here’s the back story: A heartless thief has stolen an old grandmother’s beloved green apples off her apple tree, and ol’ granny ain’t gonna sit there crying. Instead, she digs out her skates (probably from 50 years ago), dusts them off and sets off to nab the thief, and get what’s rightfully hers back.
Heroes Call Game Review – When Change is for the Better
- Details
- Published on Tuesday, 28 August 2012 11:26
Back when Heroes Call first came out on Android in late June, it had the price tag of free. Before long, I knew it was ridden with IAPs. And terrible IAPs, mind you. At that time, Heroes Call was the worst implementation of IAPs – with exponentially growing wait times and three different in-game currencies.
Broken Sword Director's Cut Review: An oldie but a goodie

I had a Commodore 64 when I was a kid but didn’t get another PC until I was an adult in ‘99. I know for a fact that I missed a lot of great games in the gap between the two. There were games that covered all sorts of genres and play-styles and I missed the chance to play most of them. Luckily, mobile publishers have taken it upon themselves to reissue certain wonderful older titles that I would have never had the chance to play. One of the latest titles I came across in the Play Store is Broken Sword: The Director’s Cut. I do not remember anything about this title, but it did come out in ‘96 during my great computer-less period.
MASS EFFECT INFILTRATOR Review: Good looking but firing blanks
- Details
- Published on Wednesday, 15 August 2012 09:09
Mass Effect Infiltrator is a seemingly perfect fit for my Nexus 7 tablet. It looks great, offers mostly intuitive controls and pushes the boundaries of what we might be used to when it comes to mobile gaming. While much of that is accurate it’s closer to the truth to say that Mass Effect fans will be the true beneficiaries of this new game.
Retro style racing goodness - The Final Freeway Review

"Oh man! here we go! wait! where's the station!.....um......Found it!" The man says to his girlfriend as she rolls her eyes back at him. "Ugh! what am I doing here?" she asks herself jokingly. That's what I'd like to imagine the man and woman from in the intro to the game Outrun are saying.
