So it is time once again to check out Google Play and see what games are currently on sale as the week draws to a close. While last week saw a whole bunch of sales due to being a holiday weekend, this week doesn’t have a whole lot of games on sale right now but what is on sale happens to be quite good.

The rather popular side-scrolling sandbox game Terraria has been officially announced as coming to mobile platforms this Summer.

EA is always at E3 2013 and apparently they might just have a Plants vs Zombies 2 demo there to check out.

Glu Mobile is teaming up with Skillz to bring real-money gambling to their mobile games.

While this isn’t a movie spin-off game like two of the titles already out today, this is still a spin-off game but themed after the Ninja Warrior game that has been quite popular these days and is based off of the long running show called Sasuke in Japan. This game is pretty much like the TV show and you can even win prizes in the competitions that will be held on an on-going basis.
