4 Quick tl;dr iOS Game Reviews / Recommendations (Episode 23) Posted: 28 Jun 2019 02:49 AM PDT Welcome back, my mobile gaming friends, to this weekly roundup of mobile game recommendations based on the most interesting games I played last week. This time, I played an awesome strategy auto chess game with a perfect monetization, a simply top-down archery action game with roguelite elements, a new MOBA-meets-Clash-Royale game with the ability to create private rooms to fight against our friends, and lastly, a follow-up to a super popular semi-idle singleplayer RPG. Disagree with my opinion? Let's have a friendly discussion below. New to these posts? Check out the first one from 22 weeks ago here. The games are "ranked" somewhat subjectively from best to worst, so take the ranking for what it is. Here are this week's games:Auto Chess [Game Size: 920 MB] (free)Genre: Auto Chess / Strategy / Fantasy – Requires Online Access Orientation: Landscape Required Attention: Full tl;dr review: Auto Chess by Drodo Studios (the original developers of the Auto Chess for DOTA on PC) is a fun chess-like strategy RPG in the "Auto Chess" genre, with 20-30 minute play-sessions. Matched against 7 other players, the goal is to be the last man standing by buying units and deploying them to the Chess-like board, leveling them up, equipping gear, and loosing as little HP as possible! I really love Auto Chess because of how easy it is to get into and how extremely deep the meta gameplay becomes as you get better. Oh, and let's not forget the 100% perfect monetization that only focuses on cosmetics that do not impact gameplay. This is one of my favorite games of the year, and a really solid long-play-sessions gameplay experience of high quality and with a thriving community of players. App Store: Here First Impressions / Review: Here Archero [Game Size: 179 MB] (free)Genre: Action / Top-down / Archery / RPG / Roguelite - Offline Playable Orientation: Portrait Required Attention: Full tl;dr review: Archero is an archery action RPG with roguelite gameplay and light bullet-hell mechanics, in which we move through endless rooms to defeat monsters, level up to pick one of three randomly selected temporary boosts, and collect loot for our hero. The core idea of the gameplay is that we only shoot whenever we stand still, making this game a masterclass in having Ninja-like dodgeball reflexes. The action-packed gameplay is highly addictive, which is a sign of solid game design, but the energy-based monetization sadly means that we can only play 4 rounds before we have to wait an hour or pay up. App Store: Here First Impressions / Review: Here Arena Stars Battle Heroes [Total Game Size: 232 MB] (free)Genre: Action / MOBA-like / PvP / 1v1 – Requires Online Access Orientation: Landscape Required Attention: Full tl;dr review: Arena Stars Battle Heroes mixes a MOBA-like main hero with Clash Royale-style progression and unit deployment for a casual but competitive and fast-paced 1v1 PvP experience with 90-seconds matches. I enjoyed the core gameplay, the UI is well-designed, and most notably; we can create private rooms to fight against our friends in matches where we even define gameplay parameters ourselves (like starting mana, cooldowns, hero lives etc.). Sadly, the monetization allows us to buy lootboxes to skip grinding our way to better units, but fortunately the grindable chests don't have timers, instead opting for a Brawl Stars-like system where we need enough "crowns" to open the lootboxes. I AM concerned about the monetization moving forward, but the core gameplay is fun enough to warrant at least checking the game out if you find the concept intriguing. App Store: Here First Impressions / Review: Here Nonstop Knight 2 [Total Game Size: 325 MB] (free)Genre: RPG / Action / Idle / Hack'n'slash - Requires Online Access Orientation: Portrait Required Attention: Little tl;dr review: Nonstop Knight 2 is a semi-idle RPG that runs silky smooth, has nice animations, an interesting skills and talents system, and a ton of loot to find and level up. Unlike its predecessor, Nonstop Knight 2 is split into campaign levels with 3 rounds of bosses, making it feel slightly less "endless", but unfortunately, we don't earn ANY gold or exp from killing monsters unless we also defeat the boss at the end as well, removing some of the satisfaction of slaying endless enemies. It also makes the game's monetization more heavy, as we're forced to either wait for new free lootboxes or pay up to get better gear to continue if we get stuck at a boss. Overall, Nonstop Knight 2 felt a bit underwhelming, and the game doesn't add a whole lot to the experience offered by its predecessor, not to mention the worse monetization.

Human Fall Flat Mobile AMA (iOS) Posted: 28 Jun 2019 08:10 AM PDT Hi everyone, Lucas here from 505 Games, hope you're all doing well. We launched Human Fall Flat yesterday for mobile devices, but this AMA will be specifically about the iOS version of the game. Here is the launch trailer --> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zj-pqIaFDp0 Human Fall Flat is a surreal physics puzzle game in which you play as a wobbly human who keeps dreaming about surreal places filled with puzzles where he's yet to find the exit. At its heart, it's a game which will make you laugh. You are no hero and possess absolutely no superpowers. Human's journey is as random as it is surreal – with no fixed solutions to the obstacles he must overcome. Taking the form of open-ended sandbox levels in which players can experiment with solutions, Human must traverse this beautiful and diverse world in a bid to understand what's powering his dreams. Players can play alone, with friends, family or total strangers! Work together to achieve any task - or spend hours pranking each other in the craziest ways possible. Play with up to 4 players for wacky mayhem! Players control Human's basic movement, but operate his arms independently, making his journey haphazard, hilarious and fraught with danger. Human can pull, push, kick, carry, climb and break things in the world. Exploration and creativity are key, experiment and have fun! Our Human Fall Flat blog entry over at the 505 Games Blog --> https://505games.com/human-fall-flat-mobile-is-out-now-for-ios-android/ Our Human Fall Flat mobile FAQ (frequently updated) --> https://505games.com/human-fall-flat-mobile-faq/ Our Human Fall Flat support form in case anyone is facing any problems/bugs --> https://fs30.formsite.com/505games/hff/index.html Let me know if you would like to know more or if you have any questions around Human Fall Flat for iOS devices :) [link] [comments] | ||

Graveyard Keeper DLC - has anyone bought it? I have a question Posted: 28 Jun 2019 06:57 AM PDT Despite the massive backlash and negativity in the Graveyard Keeper subreddit, I am still excited to play the game and wanted to buy the DLC but after reading about it rendering the XBox saves unplayable, I thought maybe I should ask if anyone has had personal experience with the DLC on iOS. How's the DLC? Is it running okay on iOS or should I wait? Thanks in advance, guys [link] [comments] | ||

Offline games for a very long roadtrip Posted: 28 Jun 2019 02:25 AM PDT Gonna go on a 17 hour road trip, and looking to pass some time playing games. I'm already thinking about Solitairica, and if I buy that i'll have $12 left. I'm looking for something that won't require tons of concentration and focus, and can be closed and opened often being able to be picked right back up [link] [comments] | ||

iPad gaming with WIRED controller. Posted: 27 Jun 2019 06:13 PM PDT Has anyone else attempted a wired controller on iPad in ios13? I can't seem to get it to work and was wondering if anyone had any ideas. More than likely it's not supported but I just wanted to check here to make sure I wasn't missing something! Thanks!

Are there any good FPS games around? Posted: 28 Jun 2019 04:18 AM PDT I used to play a LOT of Nova 3 back in the day, and it was honestly such a good game. Then, as the player count dropped, I stopped playing. I've tried some other FPS after that, modern combat 6 I think? But it was literal p2w trash, I also tried some of the arena shooters, but they're all very simplistic and have no depth. I even googled for „best iOS fps", but all the results were either 2015 or before, or cash grab bullshit. I'm fine with paying 5 or 10 bucks for a quality game. I just want one. P.S I liked Pubg's controls and gameplay, but I don't really enjoy Battle royales. [link] [comments] | ||
Posted: 27 Jun 2019 02:37 PM PDT I've been considering getting the following games: Ordia Bastion Xcom You Must Build A Boat The Room The Room 2 The Room 3 The Room: Old Sins Solitarica If you guys know how much content and replayability these have, please tell me. [link] [comments] |
