Classic dungeon crawling game fans may want to start getting excited as a classic title from 1982 could be making its way to Android devices thanks to a new Kickstarter campaign. The new campaign is for developing and releasing a completely re-imaged version of the classic game Sword of Fargoal for multiple platforms, one of which will be Android if their stretch goal is achieved.
I recently sat down with another adventure game, this time Aidem Media’s City of Secrets, fully expecting to find a similar experience to other point-and-click titles from earlier reviews. There are many similar designs and ideas between all adventure games but the unique setting and charming characters in City of Secrets help to set it apart from the pack. We are all familiar with clicking and moving our characters, reading or listening to sometimes massive piles of text, fumbling our way through sometimes great and often horrible puzzles and scratching our heads when an obvious (in hindsight) solution isn’t so obvious. The adventure genre is as filled with repeats and bland designs as any other, but City of Secrets puts out enough original content to make it noteworthy.
While Activision and Glu Mobile release Call of Duty: Black Ops Zombies from it’s month long Sony exclusivity, Herocraft and their neat little game called The Tiny Bang Story has also been released of its Sony exclusivity period and is now available for the rest of the Android world to download and play.
Glu Mobile seems to really be making a strong push on Android these days with quite a few game releases already in the past couple of months and now we have two more that are being teased. One game is geared towards those who like eye candy and aerial dogfighting while the other is more of a casual adventure game.
Tuna Mobile is responsible for the Eufloria strategy game on iOS that has gotten quite the following since its release. Now the developers are planning to release the next installment in the series, called Eufloria Adventures, and instead of releasing it on iOS, it will be skipping that platform and arriving on Android instead through Playstation Mobile.
Last week we talked about the newest addition to the Broken Sword point-and-click adventure game series, called The Serpent’s Curse, and the fact it was up on Kickstarter looking for $400K in funding. It was announced that it would be also coming to mobile devices including Android but there seems to have been a bit of confusion about that fact.
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?
One game a lot of people have been waiting for, longer than expected after about a week and a half delay, is Phosphor Games’ newest title Horn. Published by Zynga under their Partner Program, Horn is a third-person action adventure game with plenty of eye candy to take in while you kill rather large monsters.
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.
Our weekly series of what we are playing has been transformed and Larry, the incredible edible squirrel as well like to call him, has fully taken it over. So from now on it will be named as Larry’s Play Corner where Larry will give you a quick rundown of a couple of games he’s playing each week, sometimes twice a week, giving you a glimpse at some lesser known titles you might want to check out.
