    3 Quick Tl;Dr Android Game Reviews / Recommendations (Episode 172)

    Posted: 30 Apr 2021 03:30 AM PDT

    Welcome back, fellow Android gamers, to a special "offline-playable" version of my weekly mobile gaming recommendations based on the most interesting games I played last week :)

    This episode covers a fun zombie-shooting FPS that truly took me by surprise, a new deckbuilding dungeon-crawler RPG, and a challenging neon-style tower defense game.

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

    New to these posts? Check out the first one from 172 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:

    The Walking Zombie 2 [Game Size: 384 MB] (free)

    Genre: Shooter / Action-adventure / Indie / Action - Offline Playable

    Orientation: Landscape

    Required Attention: Full

    tl;dr review:

    The Walking Zombie 2 is a large offline-playable action-adventure FPS with story-driven missions and side-quests, set in a low-poly post-apocalyptic world.

    The core gameplay has us acquire new missions by talking to NPCs at our small camp and then travel to the mission locations from the world map. These missions often include gathering resources needed for survival and shooting hordes of zombies with our range of weapons.

    The core gameplay is fun and surprisingly well-made, but where the game really shines is in its RPG elements that allow us to heavily customize our character through lots of unique skills and perks as we progress. Skills may increase our firearms or melee damage, or even improve our trading or speech proficiency, which decreases the price of goods and allows us to acquire more quests from NPCs respectively. Perks, on the other hand, may improve our reloading speed, allow us to gain XP faster, and much more.

    While the art-style is average, the clean and minimalistic UI help create a nice, uninterrupted, gameplay experience. To my big surprise, some of the cut-scenes are even fully voiced, and there's a karma system that rewards or punishes us depending on which decisions we make.

    The Walking Zombie 2 monetizes through frequent forced ads, a $3.99 iAP to remove these ads, and additional iAPs for better weapons, extra skill points, and other items that make it faster to complete the game. Fortunately, none of the iAPs are necessary to enjoy the game at all. There is, however, a fuel system that limits how much we can travel between missions in one play session.

    While I didn't expect much from this game, the depth of its gameplay very positively surprised me. If you can pay to remove the annoying ads, the game is an easy recommendation.

    Card Hog [Total Game Size: 97 MB] (free)

    Genre: Deckbuilding / Dungeon-crawler / Card / Indie - Offline Playable

    Orientation: Portrait

    Required Attention: Some

    tl;dr review:

    Card Hog is a turn-based deckbuilding dungeon-crawler with a core gameplay loop inspired by Dungeon Cards and Look, Your Loot!

    Our goal is to get as far as possible into a dungeon consisting of a 4x3 playing-field full of cards, with our hero placed in the middle. From thereon, we tap adjacent cards to move around and interact with the cards around us, which include weapon, potion, currency, or monster cards. If we have less HP than an enemy's attack power when we attack it, we die and have to start a new game from scratch.

    Between playthroughs, we can pick another of the seven different heroes for our next adventure, or buy permanent upgrades using a special currency gained by doing side-quests. With three game-modes and dungeons that are procedurally generated, the game offers a decent amount of replayability, not to mention that unlocking all heroes and 100 cards takes a while. This progression helps keep the game interesting beyond the first few playthroughs.

    The art-style is simple but humorous and polished. My only complaint is that the very short tutorial doesn't introduce some of the most important core gameplay systems, which may cause some confusion until you've played a few rounds.

    Card Hog monetizes through occasional forced ads between play-sessions and infrequent incentivized ads, both of which can be removed through a single $1 iAP.

    Radiant Defense [Game Size: 14 MB] (free)

    Genre: Tower Defense - Offline Playable

    Orientation: Landscape

    Required Attention: Full

    tl;dr review:

    Radiant Defense is a challenging 15-level tower defense game that lets us place walls to alter the route our enemies will be forced to take – something we use to our advantage to get the most out of our towers.

    With a few special buildings and nine towers that can be leveled up, the game feels like a very traditional tower defense game. The only thing I'm missing is an option to select which types of enemies our towers should target, which is a feature I've gotten used to in most other games in the genre.

    The neon art-style and special effects perfectly combine with the music to create a uniquely atmospheric experience that feels very polished, and the controls are as simple as can be. Surprisingly, the entire game only takes up 14 MB of space, which means it can run on any potato of a smartphone.

    Radiant Defense is free to play, monetizing only through four $1.99 iAPs that unlock new towers and buildings. Due to the game's difficulty, some of these purchases are almost required to be able to finish the game, but once bought, they at least turn the game into a premium experience.

    I just discovered xash3D for Half-life on android. Does anyone else have any other hidden gems to share?

    Posted: 30 Apr 2021 05:20 PM PDT

    I have PSX and PSP emulators, but they don't have a lot for FPSs (but there are some good ones still), so I thought it was super awesome to find Xash3D. Let me know if you have any other good games like that that aren't just in the play store.

    Looking for a particular type of game

    Posted: 30 Apr 2021 04:52 PM PDT

    I've been looking for a while now for a game that checks the following boxes;

    Decent graphics (like raid SL (I know the game sucks but it looks good)).

    Fun and engaging gameplay/content.

    Fantasy medieval theme (elves, dwarves, goblins, dragons, etc.).

    Build my own team and/or character.

    Any suggestions would be great.

    Can't find new games? Consider other options other than just searching in the Play Store!

    Posted: 30 Apr 2021 07:48 AM PDT

    Lately I was looking for new games to play but couldn't find anything interesting.
    So I told myself: "Well, there are a lot of great games I haven't played on the Game Boy Advance back when I was a kid, let's see what I can find".

    I dedicated an entire week on searching the best games to play on a GBA emulator and made a list with a little help from the GBA subreddit community.

    I decided to go with GBA games instead of NDS or PSP ones because they are more simple and easy to play on a phone. There are also a lot of good NDS games, but the fact that you have to use two screens sometimes really annoys me.

    Hope it helps!

    [REQUEST] Co-op Hack and Slash Game Recommendations.

    Posted: 30 Apr 2021 07:56 PM PDT

    I'm currently looking for something like Genshin Impact graphics/art style. Been loving the game so far but the grind to catch up is too much, same with Honkai Impact 3. My friend and I have a huge level gap and it makes my appetite to play the game go down. Genshin needs Level 16 and Honkai needs Level 30 from what I've read. Maybe a game we could try where we're both new to it so our progress can be more or less synced.

    I have tried Sky Children of Light that has no level requirement but it lacks action. Art and music are beautiful though.

    Key points:

    • Hack and Slash

    • Art style like Genshin Impact or Sky Children of Light

    • Low level requirement (or none) for co-op

    • (Optional) If its file size is smaller than Genshin Impact then that's a plus

    Help to find games that can replace my habit of scrolling through social media apps

    Posted: 30 Apr 2021 05:32 AM PDT

    Hello guys, as mentioned in the title I have a bad habit of opening social media when I have no clue what to do on my phone, and it is kinda annoying, so I even got rid of all social media except Reddit and I don't want to delete this one too, so help me find a game that is just causal. Something that I can play while I am waiting for someone or while talking to someone, which doesn't really require my full attention. Thanks in advance

    Doubting lifespan of multiplayer games?

    Posted: 30 Apr 2021 06:32 AM PDT

    Good day /r/AndroidGaming

    Where do you find statistics of app population? At what point do you when scrolling on the Play Store make the swift judgement that you will invest time and potentially money into the game/to the devs.

    I understand we have public information of ratings and downloads, but are we limited at that?

    Mad Catz MOJO storage options

    Posted: 30 Apr 2021 08:40 AM PDT

    picked up a mad catz mojo off ebay US $42.00.

    I have been looking into what i should use for storage, not sure if i should go for external HD or USB thumb stick. If i went external HD i guess it would be worth it for usb hub?

    haven't figured out if the 2.0 slot works better for roms or the 3.0, I've read people leave the controller dongle in the 3.0 for better results

    Any way to save user data for games?

    Posted: 30 Apr 2021 12:15 AM PDT

    I like to play a wide variety of games, including puzzle games that when added up take a lot of space on my device. So I would like to uninstall apps/games but keep user data/save so I wouldn't have to worry about unlocking levels again/go through the entire game again. Anyway to do this or prevent the system from uninstalling save data?
