What do you call a man with a spade on his head? The genre of mining or maze building has been popular since the classic Dig Dug was released by Namco in Japan, and Atari Inc in the West.

While Anodyne has these features and they really make this game an enjoyable experience to play all the way through, it also has a look and feel that is very distinct from other Action-RPGs, and is quite unique to itself.
Kemco lately seems to be on quite a roll when it comes to game releases on Android, bringing a new one to Google Play almost every other week as of late, or at least it seems that way.

Nimblebit’s next games looks to bring some crazy Sin City action to Android with Tiny Tower Vegas
Las Vegas is something a few of us here at DroidGamers know quite well. That is because we are based out of Sin City.
