    5 Quick Tl;Dr Android Game Reviews / Recommendations (Episode 156)

    Posted: 08 Jan 2021 04:54 AM PST

    Welcome to the first of these mobile game recommendations posts of 2021! :) I've got no less than 5 great games lined up today, so let's waste no time and just dive in.

    This episode includes the League of Legends mobile MOBA, a fun cyberpunk-themed arcade racer, one of the best platform action games I've played recently, a casual simulation game about destroying planets with freaking lasers, and a fun action game that mixes puzzle and dungeon-crawling elements.

    Disagree with my opinion? Let's have a friendly discussion below.

    New to these posts? Check out the first one from 156 weeks ago here.

    The games are "ranked" somewhat subjectively from best to worst, so take the ranking for what it is.

    Let's get to the games:

    League of Legends: Wild Rift [Game Size: 2.7 GB] (free)

    Genre: MOBA / Action / PvP - Requires Online Access

    Orientation: Landscape

    Required Attention: Full

    tl;dr review: [For some reason NOT out in the US yet]

    League of Legends: Wild Rift is Riot Games' mobile version of the massively popular PC MOBA, League of Legends. Most notably, its 5v5 matchmaking is incredibly fast, there are already 40+ unique heroes, and the graphics look great without overheating my phone.

    While there are plenty of MOBAs on mobile, Wild Rift had the best on-boarding experience I've tried to date, jumping straight into the action instead of forcing us through lengthy tutorials. And this while still being mindful of explaining the core mechanics as you play your first matches versus AI.

    Unlike some MOBAs, the combat is nicely paced in Wild Rift, with each match taking roughly 15 minutes, which is perfect for mobile. The lack of annoying pop-ups with quests and login rewards is also a welcomed change.

    Just like its PC counterpart, the monetization is very fair. The heroes are well-balanced, which means we can easily compete with the heroes we get for free, while purely cosmetic skins and additional heroes can be bought through iAPs.

    Wild Rift is by far the most polished, fair, and overall most promising MOBA I've played in years.

    Nameless Cat [Game Size: 92 MB] (free)

    Genre: Platformer / Action / Indie / 2D - Offline Playable

    Orientation: Landscape

    Required Attention: Full

    tl;dr review:

    Nameless Cat is a beautiful 2D action platformer with a mysterious story, lots of interesting obstacles and enemies, and even boss battles that we must overcome without being able to attack.

    One of the game's most unique features is the ability to teleport to what looks like tombstones that are found throughout each level. This mechanic is used to avoid enemy attacks, travel distances that are too far to jump, and teleport away from traps, creating a fun experience that feels different from most other action platformers.

    The peaceful soundtrack perfectly fits the distinctive pixel art-style and creates a truly calming and peculiar atmosphere that makes the game a joy to explore. As we complete the 40+ hand-crafted levels, we also collect cans of cat food used to unlock new cosmetic cat skins.

    The game monetizes through occasional ads between deaths and incentivized ads to activate some of the checkpoints, both of which can be removed through a $2.99 iAP. $0.99 iAPs allow us to unlock additional premium skins.

    Nameless Cat is a must-play for any fan of cute, challenging, action platformers.

    Neon Flytron [Total Game Size: 118 MB] (free)

    Genre: Arcade / Racer / Endless / Indie - Offline

    Orientation: Portrait

    Required Attention: Full

    tl;dr review:

    Neon Flytron is a forward-movement arcade racer where we control a flying car blasting through a cyberpunk-themed city full of neon lights, skyscrapers, and obstacles in both level-based and endless game-modes.

    Unlike lane-runners like Subway Surfers, Neon Flytron's smooth controls let us freely move up, down, left, and right to avoid obstacles, defeat bosses, and pickup powers-ups or gold. Combined with the futuristic soundtracks and shiny art-style, this makes for a truly unique experience.

    Arguably the game's most unique feature is just how customizable everything is. Vehicles can be painted with different materials and colors, a custom game-mode lets us heavily alter and control the gameplay experience, and the map editor even allows us to fully customize the colors used for buildings, windows, and more. All customizations cost gold, which we earn through gameplay.

    Monetization happens through occasional forced ads that can be removed through a $1.99 iAP, incentivized ads to revive or increase our gold rewards, and iAPs for more gold used for customization and to unlock all cars immediately. The monetization isn't heavily pushed, and the game can easily be enjoyed as a free player.

    Neon Flytron is a runner that doesn't feel like any other endless runner, and that's why it's worth checking out for arcade cyberpunk fans.

    Yokai Dungeon [Total Game Size: 58 MB] (free)

    Genre: Puzzle / Dungeon Crawler / Acrade / Action - Offline

    Orientation: Portrait

    Required Attention: Some

    tl;dr review:

    Yokai Dungeon is a cute and simple arcade action game where we fight our way through endless randomly generated dungeons by pushing blocks and bushes into enemies to defeat them.

    Each dungeon floor consists of multiple rooms full of monsters and a boss at the end, and while we're free to explore the dungeon in whichever order we prefer, we must defeat all monsters in each room before we can proceed to the next. Monsters drop gold that we can spend to unlock cute heroes with unique health, speed, and luck stats.

    The controls are a bit wonky and combat gets slightly repetitive after a while as our only offensive ability is to push blocks. But apart from that, it's a fun mix of puzzle and dungeon crawling that works well as a casual game.

    Yokai Dungeon monetizes through frequent ads between dungeon rooms, which can be removed with a $2.99 iAP, and additional iAPs to unlock heroes faster.

    Solar Smash [Total Game Size: 128 MB] (free)

    Genre: Simulation - Offline

    Orientation: Landscape

    Required Attention: Little

    tl;dr review:

    Solar Smash is a simulation game about destroying planets and entire solar systems by altering the orbit of each planet until they collide or by using a range of over-the-top crazy weapons from rockets and lasers to alien spaceships and Cthulhu-like creatures.

    The game plays like a sandbox experience, with full freedom and no overall objective or mission to complete. It's a fun experience for short periods of time, although it quickly grows repetitive due to a general lack of gameplay modes, planets, and weapons.

    The controls are decent, and the performance is alright, although explosions may sometimes cause lag even on high-end devices.

    Solar Smash monetizes through occasional forced ads and a $2.99 iAP to remove these completely.

    Monster Manager - finally ready !

    Posted: 08 Jan 2021 08:07 AM PST

    Hi everyone !

    So after few months of development, over 2 months of beta testing we uploaded production version of our game to Play Store:

    https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.LimeDevStudio.MonstersIdleManager

    We've changed A LOT during beta testing:

    - we've redesigned UI completely (it was confusing - as we have found out),

    - we've improved factories visibility (we thought, that all-dark design will be cool. It was but it wasn't very useful),

    - we've changed factories order - from top to bottom (we thought, that it would be cool if our game will be different. Well - gamers told us they were confused ),

    - we've added build icons and, upgrade arrows,

    - And many, many more !

    It was long and hard work but we have learned a lot. Many mistakes were made and Manny lessons were learned. Thanks to this community we had feedback which allowed us to make to this point.

    We know - there are some bugs, and there will be some patches. But for know - we take 2 days break :). As earlier - we would be happy to hear from you guys what do you think about our game. Please - download and rate our game.

    Thank you all for your help !

    Over a year of hard work. I took inspiration from my favorite childhood games and this is what came out!

    Posted: 08 Jan 2021 10:51 AM PST

    [Request] I need help finding an old game, where you tap to slash!

    Posted: 08 Jan 2021 09:10 AM PST

    Hi sorry, I'm fairly new here and haven't posted before, so I'm sorry to the Mods if I mess up any formatting.

    I'm looking for a game I used to play years ago!

    You would play in an overhead view as a guy with a sword(?) And waves of enemies would attack you. When you died (lost all hearts) you would go to an upgrades page to make yourself stronger and do it again.

    The enemy variants, number, and bosses were all fixed every time you started it.

    To attack, you just tapped the screen and your guy would slash in that direction (like an anime type ninja slash, just fly to the tap and slash everything in between).

    There were some coins and powerups the enemies would drop.

    Sorry but that's about all I can recall rn, thanks in advance!!!

    Edit: I remember the graphics being older bit styled graphics!

    The Best Android Strategy Games as of 2021

    Posted: 08 Jan 2021 10:48 AM PST

    Which games have the BEST graphics on Android?

    Posted: 08 Jan 2021 09:30 AM PST

    Not gonna lie, I'm not mobile gamer but I have seen games like Genshin Impact or Black Desert mobile that really takes the concept of mobile games (at least graphically speaking) to the next level. That left me wondering, which other games have really impressive graphics for Android?

    [WSIG] Looking for an ansynchronous game that supports 6 players

    Posted: 08 Jan 2021 01:37 AM PST

    We are a group of 6 friends that often play Landrule, a game that is basically Risk on mobile. We are looking for some other games that fit the niche.

    I tried Diplomacy, but it fell flat unfortunately.

    Board game apps are preferred.

    The only 2 requirements I have are:

    • Must support 6 players (and able to match friends)
    • Must support asynchronous play (preferably turns of 24 hours)

    Please recommend some good horror games with combat

    I'm tired of horror games that leave you defenseless and forced to hide. I'd like something with combat, like Cry of Fear.

    Moga, and Android gaming.

    Posted: 08 Jan 2021 12:34 AM PST

    I don't know if anyone remembers the Moga Pivot app?

    It had a section for controller enable games. I was wondering if anyone knew of an app similar seeing as power a don't have one any more.

    My xp5+ works fantastically with emulators but not so much with android games.

    Tia.
