iOS gamers have a rather epic RPG to enjoy tomorrow which happens to be a sequel to Crescent Moon Games’ Ravensword title. Officially called Ravensword: Shadowlands, this is a huge open world 3D RPG title which means not only will there be plenty of areas to explore in the game but also a ton of monsters that you’ll have to kill.
‘Tis the season for games going on sale and as you may have noticed over the last seven days or so, there are plenty of sales going on right now. So to add to the rather long list of companies putting their games on sale, Zeptolab has put the HD versions of their games on sale, just like Rovio did with their HD games.
Having made a cameo appearance back in the Humble Bundle 4 for Android, Omni Systems has finally launched their atmospheric RTS game called Eufloria HD. This rather unique RTS title won’t have robots, futuristic structures or different alien races to battle against or play as with 3D-ish rendered graphics. Instead it is all plant-based with great ambient music and a really unique art style to it. If you got the Humble Bundle 4 for Android, then you are already enjoying this game.
Chillingo has been pretty consistent with releasing games on Android over the past few months and this week we see another game arrive onto Google Play called Tiny City. This particular game is a city building sim with the usual overall goal of making your city as prosperous as you can. However, just because it is called Tiny City doesn’t mean that the game is small.
Zen Studios happens to be the developers behind one of the two main pinball platforms on Android called Zen Pinball. Up until now the official name of their platform was Zen Pinball THD but if you go to the Google Play listing now it will show up as Zen Pinball HD. This is because the platform, once exclusive to Tegra-based devices, is now available for select Android devices that do not have a Tegra chipset inside.
Pocket Gems have been developing games for mobile for awhile now strictly for iOS until recently when they finally branched out onto Android as well. Late last week the company announced it was getting into mobile game publishing as well, similar to what other companies like Gamevil are doing, with publishing 3rd party mobile games. Their first partner game has arrived on Google Play called Chasing Yello.
You know, I’m not normally a fan of rehashed clone games. The fact is that any gamer who has spent more than a dozen hours online knows that feeling when he or she sees yet another game that uses mechanics or designs that we’ve all seen a hundred times before. So, when I stumbled across Survivalcraft, an obvious clone of Minecraft: Pocket Edition, I was hesitant. I’ve also learned that a game can look like another yet be its very own creation, so I bought it and started the download. In the notes about the game, the developer literally gives credit to Minecraft and asks players to purchase it, so that gave me more confidence. After all, I’ve read a lot of player-written stories that are based in official lore or viewed wonderful fan art, all of it based on somebody else’s creation.
Nexon has brought another one of their online PC games to mobile, minus the online part that is. Dungeon Fighter Gunner has arrived on the Google Play store and is the first mobile addition to the Dungeon Fighter franchise which even features an online game for PC gamers to play. This particular game though is a completely new story while bringing all of the action from the online game to mobile.
For those of you who thought Angry Birds Rio had finally thrown in the towel after a nice long run, you can reconsider those thoughts as Rovio has released an update for Angry Birds Rio. This new update comes with 24 new Samba-themed levels for you to fling your birds through as well as the new power-ups system.
