For the most part Romain Guy, an Android Engineer at Google, posts on Twitter his idea of what the best game out is for each day and usually we have it covered already. Once in awhile one slips by us and that is exactly the case today with his selection being a new point-and-click adventure game from Bulkypix called Yesterday.
Let’s be honest, OK? If you’ve played one of these casual, hidden-item, Big Fish-style games you’ve really played them all. Well, sort of. While I’ve become very good at pointing out how many titles repeat the same designs over and over, and how this repetition has begun to wear even my battle-hardened gamer senses down, I still keep in mind that some genres will always be what they are… that’s what makes them genres. Sci-fi will probably always have spaceships and robots, Westerns will have cowboys on horseback and fantasy will keep it up with swords, dragons or orcs. It’s just how it is a lot of the time.
Some of you may have heard of Hamilton’s Great Adventures before. It made its debut on PSN and Steam over a year ago. Now, the developers have brought this explorer-cum-puzzler to Android exclusively via the Tegra 3 platform. It is basically the same game as the console and PC version both in terms of content and graphics.
One game we have talked on and off about for quite some time now is a game called Hamilton’s Great Adventure THD by Fatshark. We’ve talked about this game, demoed it a few times at different conventions and have waited for some time for it to finally arrive on Google Play. Well it looks as though it has finally made it to Android along with a whole expansion pack as well.
Its time for another Humble Bundle for Android, this one being the fourth one so far which we reported on coming this week a few days ago. When we originally posted about this new Humble Bundle, it was slated for release on November 6th, 2012 but since it was revealed it would be coming on that day along with the Walking Mars game, perhaps the crew over there decided to postpone it for a couple of days to throw everyone off. Either way, the Humble Bundle 4 is now here.
For those of us looking forward to getting our hands on the upcoming action-sim game from War Drum Studios called Star Command when it is finally released onto Android, we may need something to fill the void in while we are waiting. While not exactly on the same level as Star Command is, there does happen to be a neat little space themed retro game which does give off the same sort of feel that Star Command accomplishes called Bridge Captain by Square Particle Corp.
A new Action Adventure game has hit up Kickstarter in the hopes of getting funding to help get completed. Developed by Studio Fawn, Bloom is great looking Unity3D built action adventure game with RPG elements layered onto it for a little extra depth. Currently Bloom is slated for release on PC, Mac and Xbox but when OUYA arrives it will be made available for that console as well since it is being made with Unity3D which allows the developers to launch the game on multiple platforms with very little effort or change.
Usually we don’t get to have advance notice on when the next Humble Bundle is going to be but it seems like there is a bit of an exception to the rule for the next one. This is all thanks to the developer of an iOS game called Walking Mars who has stated on his website that his game will be coming to Android, PC, Mac and Linux this month as part of the upcoming Humble Bundle for Android.
The creators of the classic first-person adventure game called Shadowgate have gone over to Kickstarter to bring a new re-imagined and revamped version out to the world and this new version will be made available on a variety of platforms including Android tablets. This inclusion of Android tablets as one of the supported platforms isn’t a stretch goal either, which is something that happens with a decent amount of these Kickstarter project. Instead, it will be released onto Android tablets when the game launches.
