NetHack is a port from the old dungeon exploration game of the same name by Fredrik Franstrom. This is a rogue-like RPG game that is a step up from the old school MUD or Text based RPGs that used to be real popular. NetHack offers up a large RPG in a small file size thanks in part to the dungeon and everything in it being rendered using text symbols.
Tower Defense games have always been popular whether played on your PC or on your mobile phone. With this popularity there comes many variants and differently themed tower defense games. Android itself has numerous different tower defense games such as Bubble Defense, Robo Defense, Tower Raiders and now there is Eskimo Tower Defense.
Social Gaming Network, or SGN for short, just recently announced that they have raised an additional $2 million dollars in second round funding. While good funding is great to hear about where developers are concerned, SGN has been focused a long time on high quality iPhone/iPad/iPod multiplayer gaming. They now plan to release titles for Android devices.
Hyperbees developed the widely popular tunnel racing game, SpeedX 3D, and have been hard at work on their new title which just dropped onto the Android market called Prism 3D. In this game you tilt your device to move the bouncing beach ball along the tiles, collecting points and finishing each stage by getting the ball to the checkered flag tiles.
If there isn’t enough traffic control games on the Android market already, here is another one for you to play called Gridlock, developed by No Patience Software. Like all traffic control games that deal with street traffic, the object of the game is to stop and start cars in the hopes that they don’t smash into each other. Too many crashes = game over.
When we first started one of the very first stories we posted was about a game in beta phase called Runes. This is a 3D MMORPG for Android phones which features just about everything you would find in an MMORPG but designed for playing on your phone. Since then we’ve kept our eye on it watching it develop over time and recently Runes went into a Beta III phase.
Joyland Bounce, developed by Intouch Games, is a game where you tilt your device to get your little smiley face ball to move, bouncing all over the place until you reach the end of the stage. While the premise is simple enough, the backgrounds are rather good and the music suits the game well making this a good choice to kill some time with.
While pipe puzzle games are not exactly abundant on the Android market right now, what is on there is actually less then great in terms of art and gameplay, that is until Pipe Dreams by Epic Applications came to Android. Pipe Dreams is a pipe puzzle game with good art, excellent animation and a fun style of gameplay for your Android device.
Mad Maks 3D, developed by Noumena Innovations, is a tank shoot-em-up game where you can pilot different types of tanks and go about in the 3D world destroying all enemy vehicles. Unlike most 3D games of this nature, this particular title is more cartoon in feeling with all the vehicles having faces, expressions and their shape is more along the lines of what you would see in a cartoon style game.
Hexage has produced some great games such as Totemo, Radiant and of course Booka, are getting geared up to release another title called Everlands. After a bit of a break from releases it is good to see one of the more veteran Android game developer groups releasing another title. Everlands looks to be yet another promising game to add to their resume and to your collection.
