Almost two weeks ago we mentioned that two Kairosoft games had appeared on Google Play for residents of Japan and users who use Market Enabler. Kairosoft is usually pretty quick now with translating their Japanese released games over to English and so two weeks after posting about those games, Kairosoft has released one of them called Dream House Days onto Google Play.
Ngmoco has announced that they will be shutting down four of their games permanently. While three of these games are not on Android at all, one of them happens to be on Google Play and has been for quite some time and has between 500,000 and 1 million downloads. That means there is a decent amount of people on Android who play We Rule that will soon lose the realms they have created.
We have a double shot of Minecraft: Pocket Edition news to go over this morning and the first chunk of news comes from one of the main developers working on Minecraft: Pocket Edition who goes by the name Johan Bernhardsson who just did a quick livestream on TwitchTV with Daniel Kaplan with both of them showing off some of the new features coming in the 0.6.0 update.

While Temple Run 2 from Imangi Studios is now freshly minted onto Google Play, everyone playing it should already be familiar with how to play the game in general. Aside from the new Zip lines and Mine carts, the basics of the game are still the same as the original. However, Imangi Studios has given out three tips on how to truly excel at Temple Run 2.
The moment all of you Temple Run fans out there have been waiting for since word got out last week that a sequel was on the way has finally arrived. Imangi Studios has released Temple Run 2 right on time onto Google Play and considering this game is just as popular on Android as it is on iOS, we should see download numbers similar to what the iOS launch pulled in with around 20 million download in four days.
Have you ever danced with the devil in the pale moonlight? No? Well in Moonlight Runner you at least get to run in the pale moon light. In this newly released running platformer your goal is to run as far as you can while collecting as many golden bugs as possible to increase your overall score.
Well we have been reporting on an update for Minecraft: Pocket Edition we have labeled as the 0.5.1 update, which is what this was supposed to be, but now Mojang has turned around and labeled this update as the official 0.6.0 update instead. That means everything in the 0.5.1 update we have been talking about will actually arrive as 0.6.0. This also means that everything we were talking about before as coming in the 0.6.0 update will actually arrive in 0.7.0. Confusing isn’t it?
It was bound to happen just like it does when any sort of major game release is on the horizon, fake apps trying to fool people into downloading them named after the upcoming game in question’s release. So it has happened to Temple Run 2, just like it did with the original game’s launch as well.
