    I have been working for the past 6 months on a fast-paced mobile game about burgers. Now it's finally finished.

    4 Quick Tl;Dr Android Game Reviews / Recommendations (Episode 174)

    Posted: 21 May 2021 05:42 AM PDT

    Happy Friday! :) I'm so glad to be back from my small vacation last week, and I hope you'll enjoy this latest episode of my weekly gaming recommendations based on the most interesting mobile games I played last week.

    Also did a (hopefully) fun video about Facebook's predictions for the future of mobile gaming last week, in case you're interested.

    This week's episode includes a high-quality single-player sci-fi action shooter, the best solitaire game I've played on mobile, a new text-based simulation farm RPG, and a WW2-themed FPS with a large single-player campaign!

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

    New to these posts? Check out the first one from 174 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:

    Implosion - Never Lose Hope [Game Size: 2.1 GB] (free trial - $1.99 for full game)

    Genre: Action / Shooter / Sci-Fi - Offline Playable

    Orientation: Landscape

    Required Attention: Full

    tl;dr review:

    Implosion – Never Lose Hope is a high-quality level-based sci-fi action game by Cytus and DEEMO developer Rayark – and it's one of the best games within the genre on mobile.

    With a left-side joystick and right-side buttons for normal attacks and abilities, we hack and slash our way through hordes of alien enemies in each level using a huge blade as our primary weapon. Together with the awesome combo attacks, smooth animations, and dark and gritty universe, this fast-paced combat creates a fantastic gameplay experience that feels slightly Doom-inspired.

    As we progress and uncover more of the game's story, we unlock new skills for our character, and can equip better Arks, which are permanent stat boosters that we get from completing levels. This helps us complete the increasingly tougher levels and enemies.

    The touch controls are nicely calibrated, but Bluetooth controllers are also supported. The graphics have aged well and the game's entire story, including all conversations, is even fully voiced with excellent English voices.

    Implosion is free to download and play until mission 1-6, with a single $1.99 unlocking the remaining levels. It's an inexpensive gem of a mobile game that anyone fond of the genre is very likely to enjoy.

    Faerie Solitaire Remastered [Total Game Size: 99 MB] (free 4-day trial, $9.99 for full game)

    Genre: Card / Casual / Solitaire - Offline Playable

    Orientation: Landscape

    Required Attention: Some

    tl;dr review:

    Faerie Solitaire Remastered is a high-quality solitaire card game ported from PC, featuring lots of content, several fun game modes, and a pet system that gives it an almost RPG adventure feel.

    In the normal adventure game-mode, every level consists of 9 games of solitaire. Our objective in each of these games is to clear the entire board of cards by tapping cards that are either one higher or lower than the face-up card in our deck. If we're stuck, we can tap our deck to draw a new card. If we haven't emptied the board by the time our deck is empty, we lose the game and move on to the next one.

    To make the gameplay more interesting, the game features several RPG-like elements, including cards that need to be unfrozen by tapping fire cards, or an entire row of cards that are locked until we remove the plant whose roots keep it in place. Between levels, we can even hatch and raise new pets, or spend the currency we earn from playing levels on unlocking permanent power-ups.

    Faerie Solitaire Remastered is free to try but asks you to pay $9.99 if you want to continue playing the game after a 4-day trial. Surprisingly, nothing prevents you from continuing to play for free – but please support the developers if you enjoy the game.

    It's a one-of-a-kind solitaire game with a neat, simplistic, art-style, and a gameplay experience I think any fan of casual card games will enjoy.

    Farm RPG [Game Size: 54 MB] (free)

    Genre: RPG / Text-based / Incremental - Requires Online Access

    Orientation: Portrait + Landscape

    Required Attention: Little

    tl;dr review:

    Farm RPG is a new cross-platform text-based RPG with simulation-like gameplay by Titan Conquest indie developer Magic & Wires.

    The game puts us in control of a small farm from which we can plant seeds to grow crops, craft new items, go fishing, or explore the surrounding areas for crafting materials. Fish and crops can be sold in town for silver that we in turn use to buy new seeds or upgrade and expand our farm to become more efficient. There are multiple other options at town as well, such as depositing silver at the bank to gain a daily interest of 1%.

    Every time we complete an action, we gain XP in that profession, which gradually lets us access new areas and items – a bit like in Melvor Idle. Some aspects of the game are semi-idle, such as growing crops after we've planted seeds, while areas such as fishing and exploration require active play. This mix creates a nice sense of constant progression.

    While the game is still early in development and would benefit from additional skills and gameplay elements, it already has a friendly community that we can engage with via a chat, and the fun core gameplay loop is promising.

    Farm RPG monetizes through iAPs for a premium currency that we also earn some of for free by completing achievements. This currency can be used to enable quality-of-life upgrades and increase our progression speed but is never necessary to enjoy the game. Overall, Farm RPG is a neat casual game that mixes farming and RPG gameplay elements to create a unique text-based experience.

    World War Polygon: WW2 shooter [Game Size: 520 MB] (free)

    Genre: Shooter / Action - Requires Online Access

    Orientation: Landscape

    Required Attention: Full

    tl;dr review:

    World War Polygon is a WW2-themed first-person shooter with a large single-player campaign, daily zombie-shooting missions, and real-time multiplayer.

    As we play through the campaign that starts on D-Day in 1944, we gradually unlock over 20 unique weapons and multiple armor pieces and grenades from loot boxes. These items can all be leveled up by acquiring enough of their parts, and before entering a level, we customize our character by equipping a helmet, a west, and the three weapons we deem most relevant for the mission.

    The game is overall very well-made and progressing through the single-player campaign is surprisingly fun. The only downside is that the multiplayer game mode is dominated by high-level players who already have the best weapons and gear, which means competing in multiplayer is only possible at endgame.

    The low-poly art-style allows the game to run on most devices, and the sleek UI is easy to navigate and doesn't clutter the entire screen during combat. I encountered a few glitches in the single-player campaign, but nothing game-breaking that took away from my enjoyment of the game. The controls work decently, but I did experience a few miss-clicks here and there.

    World War Polygon monetizes through frequent ads after finishing a level, which can be removed through a $3.99 iAP. Although additional iAPs up to $19.99 allow you to progress faster, the game can easily be enjoyed as a free player. Thankfully, there is no energy system.

    Bluetooth Controller Help

    Posted: 21 May 2021 04:46 PM PDT

    Hi everyone,

    I recently upgraded from an Honor 10 Lite to a new Poco X3 Pro and it's a great phone so far, however, I'm having issues with a controller of mine.

    I have two DualShock 4 V2 Controllers...

    • A: V2 Black DualShock 4
    • B: V2 Silver Gran Turismo DualShock 4

    They both connect to the phone over Bluetooth and pair successfully. I have no issues with Controller A. If I use Controller B, it makes playing games a nightmare since it gives the phone "ghost inputs" where the buttons you press can trigger for too long in the game (for example, if I move left with the stick, it could lock for a second and continue moving left after I let go). This issue is only present in Controller B on the Poco X3 Pro, not Controller A.

    I should mention, Controller B did not have this issue on my Honor 10 Lite or my PlayStation 4. I have since retested and it is only an issue present on the Poco X3 Pro.

    Could anyone offer any advice or help for how to fix it please? Thanks in advance! :)

    TLDR: Two identical controllers, one that works perfectly on other devices, now has issues with my new phone.

    Choosing between a few indie JRPGs

    Posted: 21 May 2021 04:43 PM PDT

    I'm feeling like playing a little classic jrpg on my Android tablet. Those 6 below caught my eye. Did anyone play any of those, and can recommend any among them? Basically, any that will give me an experience close to old school Final Fantasy will do. Preferably story-driven.

    It was a puzzle game where you could rotate the whole map 360 degrees and had to control a robot like thing to get to the end by rotating and moving around block pieces.

    [Request] Rangers of Oblivion substitute?

    Posted: 21 May 2021 10:00 AM PDT

    I was hoping to get back into Rangers of Oblivion recently, only to find that it's no longer playable. Are there any similar games that make a good replacement?

    Something with that "Monster Hunter Mobile" feeling RoO had would be nice, but feel free to recommend other 3D hack-n-slash action RPGs.

    Raid vs Star Wars Galaxy of Heroes

    Posted: 21 May 2021 05:24 PM PDT

    I'd like to hear some pros and cons of Raid Shadow Legends vs. Star Wars Galaxy of Heroes.

    I know Raid comes up incessantly, but I haven't found much comparing the two.

    Also, what is this genre called?

    Thanks!

    Cyberpunk RPG recommendations?

    Posted: 21 May 2021 06:22 AM PDT

    I recently tried Cyberika. The game was beautiful and the premise was good, but I couldn't stand the mechanics (lots of resource management required, many missions were just traveling and cutscenes, gun reload times were ridiculous, etc). It got me in the mood for a Cyberpunk RPG. Any recommendations?

    Analog stick problem with controller on android.

    Posted: 21 May 2021 06:21 AM PDT

    I had to send back and reorder a controller(GameSir G4s) because it was missing a wireless USB but other than that, it works just fine. Now I have a different controller of the same model, so I tested it to see if it works by opening controller-compatible games(Shadowgun Legends, Pascal's Wager, PPSSPP, etc...) and in all those games, the analog sticks(L+R) and D-pad do not work at all which is strange seeing that I can navigate the home screen fine with those. My phone is Samsung Galaxy A50

    The controller works perfectly with PCs.

    Eight Great Horror Mobile Games To Play On iOS And Android

    How to edit installed games' "Play Games" permissions?

    Posted: 21 May 2021 09:49 AM PDT

    I'm specifically not trying to edit the permissions of apps installed on my Android.

    When allowing an already-installed-app to link to your Google Play Games account, it may request certain non-phone permissions, such as "Ability to see friends list" or something of the sort.

    There seems to be no way to change these permissions after the fact. They are permanent. This can cause certain apps to never function on your device if you deny certain permissions. Uninstall reinstall will not do anything either, as Google Play Games remembers the previous permissions granted.

    (REQUEST) Getting a scooter, how about a game to pair up with

    Posted: 21 May 2021 07:00 AM PDT

    I was thinking a augmented vr game would be a good thing to start as I will be slowly scooting all around town. I did Pokémon Go and played the hell out of it. The Harry Potter WU looks a bit dead with the last update in February and too many comments that challenges are unbeatable now.

    I'd like a game that has a lot of solo content that I can do at the end of the day and content that a small group can do as well. Thanks.

    I also prefer that the game is more focused on pve as well.
