Having been released over a week ago as a location-based early access beta for folks in Canada and Australia, Spacetime Studios have gone ahead and officially launched their newest title in the Legends franchise called Arcane Legends. We did a fairly extensive preview of the game a couple of weeks back but for those of you who missed it, we will go over it all again.
A new turn-based strategy / RPG called Hunters: Episode One has arrived onto the Google Play store for anyone who want to become a rather bad ass space bounty hunter. Featuring a top-down perspective and a healthy dose of 3D visuals, this game has received a rather impressive amount of high reviews since being released onto iOS.
By now, I suppose all of you know of the Humble Bundle for Android 4, and have in the process snagged yourselves five (or six, if you paid above the average) great indie games that are mostly making their debut on Android. If you haven’t already got the bundle, then do yourself and the whole of humanity a favor by getting it!
As the Android world evolves, so does the content that is being released into the Play store. What was once a platform dominated by great casual games such as Cut the Rope and Dragon Fly, is now being taken over by the more ‘hardcore’ of games like Need for Speed, Shadowgun and Modern Combat. Controllers are being introduced and the Ouya is on the horizon. This is where I wish to go back to basics, highlighting the best casual games that deserve to be noticed and get them out of the shadows of the bigger budget games. Our first game is Backflip Madness by Gamesoul Studios.
Gameloft has quietly thrown up a sale that features a Buy 1 Get 1 free special where you could get games like Wild Blood, Asphalt 7: Heat and Order & Chaos HD for free when you buy another game. These sales are only through Gameloft’s own store and not Google Play so to access it, you’ll have to go their on your Android device to find the Buy 1 Get 1 Free sale.
You may or may not be familiar with the Foxconn suicide-inspired game, or the actual event that took place to inspire it, that was released last month onto the iOS App Store, and subsequently taken down recently for obvious reasons. Developed by Benjamin Poynter, In a Permanent Save State was inspired by the real-life suicides at Foxconn’s electronic manufacturing plants, for those of you not familiar with its inspiration.
Kemco, a game development company who almost exclusively releases old school style RPG titles, has released a new game for fans to sink their teeth into called End of Aspiration. As with a lot of Kemco’s previous titles, End of Aspiration features a good dose of retro style graphics mixed into a full-sized RPG concerning the fate of the world.
Miniclip continues on their journey of releasing rather interesting and fun games onto Android that you can usually find and play over at their main site. Their newest release is actually Part 2 in a series of games called Anger of Stick, which I believe there are a total of three or four of them so far. While we may not have the first one, we do have Anger of Stick 2 now.
Fans of Gamevil’s popular RPG franchise Zenonia have some rather great news today. The fine folks over at Gamevil have announced a few moments ago that the newest addition to the series, Zenonia 5: Wheel of Destiny, will be arriving on Google Play this week. While it could be available at any time starting tomorrow, history shows that it will most likely arrive either on Thursday or Friday of this week.
The ‘Real-Time Strategy’ genre has never really flourished on Android with only a few titles of real note (Z Origins and Total War Battles to name a couple). I guess it makes sense with the fact that the most popular RTS games on the PC are mouse and keyboard driven. But with a mouse connected to my Nexus 7, I explored the Play store seeking an RTS game that could prove that this genre can be done right on an Android device. Robotic Planet RTS hit the mark perfectly.
