    3 Quick tl;dr iOS Game Reviews / Recommendations (Episode 37)

    Posted: 21 Oct 2019 02:08 AM PDT

    Happy Frida.... oh, sorry, Monday! Was away from home this weekend, so I figured I'd post my typical Friday post today instead. So here are my weekly tl;dr recommendations of the most interesting mobile games I played this week (only 3 this week because I wasn't around Friday).

    This week, covering a brand new collectible strategy card game with cross-play functionality, a street-football 3 versus 3 online multiplayer game, and a turn-based strategy RPG with a combat system not too unlike that found in the PC stratey "Heroes of Might and Magic" games.

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

    New to these posts? Check out the first one from 37 weeks ago here.

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

    Here be the games:

    Mythgard [Game Size: 448 MB] (free)

    Genre: Card / CCG / Strategy - Requires Online Access

    Orientation: Landscape

    Required Attention: Full

    tl;dr review:

    Mythgard is a high-quality mobile & PC turn-based collectible strategy card game (CCG) with an enticing singleplayer campaign story and multiple multiplayer game-modes.

    Each card has unique abilities and attributes that make them feel distinct, which adds a lot of depth to the gameplay, and creates a ton of ways to combine cards in truly powerful ways.

    The combat system has been compared to that found in Magic the Gathering, and I found it to be one of the most enjoyable CCG experiences I've had on mobile so far.

    Winning a match provides us with silver, which we use to buy new card packs. Unlike most other mobile CCGs, while additional silver can be acquired through iAPs, there's no way to buy "premium" packs with higher chances of drawing better cards, which makes the monetization much fairer, as everything can be reasonably grinded.

    Extreme Football [Game Size: 635 MB] (free)

    Genre: Sports / Street Football / Soccer - Requires Online Access

    Orientation: Landscape

    Required Attention: Full

    tl;dr review:

    Extreme Football is a 3 versus 3 multiplayer street-football game in which each player controls a single player on the field, making the game easier to get into than a traditional football game where you control an entire team at once.

    When we've got ball possession, we can shoot for the goal, dribble to avoid losing ball control, or pass to another player, and when we're not in ball possession, we can tackle to steal the ball. The first team to get to 3 goals wins the game.

    The controls are simple, each player comes with unique attributes, like kick speed, kick angle, and a special ability, and the gameplay is fun and fast-paced.

    However, we unlock new heroes through free and paid lootboxes, and collecting more of the same player allows us to level it up, which makes it stronger. While everything can be grinded, this does make the game slightly pay-to-win, unless countered with a proper matchmaking system to ensure that stronger players only get matched against other stronger players - a bit like in Clash Royale. It doesn't seem the game currently has enough players for proper matchmaking (and we're most likely playing with bots).

    Braveland Heroes [Total Game Size: 135 MB] (free)

    Genre: RPG / Strategy / Turn-based - Requires Online Access

    Orientation: Landscape

    Required Attention: Some

    tl;dr review:

    Braveland Heroes is a turn-based strategy RPG with a combat system reminiscent of the "Heroes of Might and Magic" (HoMM) PC games, which means a hex-grid playing field and units that deal more damage the more of them we have.

    Sadly, all battles are simply structured as levels in a linear campaign, which means no open-world to explore, and less strategy than HoMM. And although new equipment can be crafted and spells can be bought, doing so is a very grindy process unless we spend real-life money.

    The game's core issue, however, is that the only way to re-gain heroes lost during battle is through gold, but the only way to get more gold, is to win battles, which means we can essentially get stuck. At that point, we have to wait to get more free gold, or buy iAPs to continue.

    Any good games to play with a group of friends?

    What kinds of games is Apple Arcade missing?

    Posted: 20 Oct 2019 02:04 PM PDT

    I feel the online multiplayer selection is a bit weak. Also, it could use some more very polished hyper-casual games like Hexaflip, some quick time wasters. I'd also like to see more simulators and RTS games.

    What types of games do you feel like are missing from Apple Arcade? Any genres you feel are lacking?

    MMO recommendations?

    Posted: 20 Oct 2019 05:54 PM PDT

    I see a lot of ads for games like rangers of oblivion and era of celestials, they are promising(rangers is actually pretty good for a mobile game) but they're held back by MTX and awkward controls. I've been waiting a very long time for runescape to come to iOS and it still hasn't. Yes I'm aware of old school runescape and as good as it is I am a bit burnt out. Don't care if it's real time or turn based or anything, just that you can go around a world and interact with other players in real time. Thank you in advance

    Need a new offline RPG for gaming during my commute - 2x speed preferable

    Posted: 21 Oct 2019 07:08 AM PDT

    I just beat Final Fantasy 9 over the past month or two on the train to and from work. Mostly using speed up (which was a little TOO fast to be honest) it was a really fun experience that didn't suffer from what the original game did, which was super slow load times/battles.

    Can anyone recommend some other RPG ports that are good. Or original games.

    I enjoyed Grimvalor a lot too so if there are any new offerings similar to that, I'm open to it.

    I’m looking for an old text based game for iOS. Multidimensional thief.

    Posted: 21 Oct 2019 03:03 AM PDT

    iPhone 11. Running Frotz.

    The topic of text based games came up this weekend at my house. So I took a Wonkas boat ride down memory lane. I found this app called Frotz to get a few oldies. I found "browse IFDB" function in the app, so I search for MDT... found it!! It gives me an error "no z code content". Can anyone point me in the right direction? Do I need another app? Or do I need different files to play it? I really want to play this specific game. I'd rather do it on an app than a browser window.

    Game Name Request

    Posted: 20 Oct 2019 11:40 PM PDT

    I remember playing a game on my mom's iPhone 3G but I can't remember the name. It was a town simulator. The graphics were very cartoony and pleasant looking. There were timers to build things and you built houses to gain villagers. The main resources that I remember were wood and stone. You could also buy expansions to the map using coins you gained to expand your city. Any help would be appreciated. Edit: the year would've been around 2010

    Fortnite ios error.

    Posted: 21 Oct 2019 12:49 AM PDT

    I keep getting the "you were removed from the game" error. I don't use a VPN, I wouldn't begin to know how to cheat, and my internet is fine. As soon as I jump, it crashed back to the lobby.

    If you haven’t played Manifold Garden yet, I recommend you try it ASAP

    This game is quite mind blowing. Plays best with a controller and big screen. Hours of fun.

    Best DragonVale-esque games

    Posted: 20 Oct 2019 12:24 PM PDT

    Looking for a bunch of manipulative games I played when I was younger like DragonVale where you really want to buy in-game currency to speed up actions and building stuff. I still love those games.
