Some time back, we published an editorial entitled “In-App Purchases: The Downfall of Android Gaming?”. In the three months between the article getting published and now, the number of games being released for free, or even paid, that contains IAPs for consumable items have increased exponentially. To be honest, finding a game devoid of some form or another of consumable IAPs these days is like looking for a needle in a haystack.
Sega stated that after Sonic 4 Episode II that there would be no more Sonic 4 games heading to Android or iOS. That doesn’t mean that there won’t be any more Sonic games at all and to prove it, Sega has begun teasing a new Sonic themed game that is slated for release onto iOS and it is looking promising for Android as well. So what is the new game? Sonic Jump.
We were already starting to miss Kairosoft since their last release, the rather cool city building sim called Venture Towns, sporting their famous 8-bits graphics and sounds. A few days ago Kairosoft decided to release a free game called Beastie Bay, moving onto a different business model but keeping the same idea that’s made them be loved by the Android community overall.
Here’s a new arcade side-scrolling shooter developed by Dancing Cat studios (who are known for their previous games Star Armada and Crusaders) located in a futuristic world and full of fantastical places to visit and lots of enemies to shoot in the face. Future Mayhem features tons of shooting gameplay and a randomly generated world each time you run through the game, ensuring replay value for every campaign you get to play.
Sega’s latest game to hit Android, Zaxxon Escape, is a remake of the classic arcade game from the 80’s, Zaxxon. However, due to me having never played the original Zaxxon arcade game because I wasn’t born yet then, I’ll just review this modern remake based on its own merits.
Speaking of the devil, we had mentioned in our previous post today regarding Gameloft who were teasing their My Little Pony game that is heading our way soon and that we are still waiting on Wild Blood to arrive and now it has magically appeared on the Google Play store finally. This is Gameloft’s first official Unreal Engine made game and you’ll be playing as Sir Lancelot who has a world of problems to deal with in this game.
Glu Mobile has been releasing a lot of games lately and here is another one on the horizon called Death Dome which they are now starting to promote with the release of a trailer. This game is a hack n’ slash titles sporting some rather nice looking 3D visuals and gameplay similar to that found in Infinity Blade while the overall theme of the game seems like something out of Mad Max.
Noodlecake Studios recently published their latest release onto the Google Play store which comes in the form of a 2D side-scrolling platformer called League of Evil. Layered with plenty of retro gaming goodness, League of Evil will have players running, wall jumping, flipping and punching their way through over 160 levels in the hopes of confronting the evil scientist and punching him in the face.
One of the top iOS strategy games has jumped from being exclusive to that platform and has begun infecting Android devices. Coming from the fine folks over at Miniclip, Plague Inc will have players trying to end the world, killing off humanity with a new, ever evolving plague. Humanity, however, will be doing all the can to stop the spread of your plague.
