| Posted: 08 Jan 2021 04:55 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. For info on the Majotori giveaway, please check my first comment below 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 66 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. App Store: Here 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. App Store: Here 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. App Store: Here 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. App Store: Here Solar Smasher [Total Game Size: 128 MB] (free)Genre: Simulation - Offline Orientation: Landscape Required Attention: Little tl;dr review: Solar Smasher 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 Smasher monetizes through occasional forced ads and a $2.99 iAP to remove these completely.

| Posted: 08 Jan 2021 07:39 AM PST I recently brought a opera 8118 controller and it connects to Bluetooth but whenever I run games like pubg (I have seen online videos that can prove that the 9118 can connect to pubg) nothing on the controller works. It cannot recognise that there is a controller inputed. I have connected it to a Samsung phone and it works so I don't understand what the problem is [link] [comments]  | ||

| Posted: 07 Jan 2021 07:38 PM PST I want to play hades but I don't have a pc. Is there anything similar to it on mobile or am I SOL? [link] [comments]  | ||
| Can find infinity blade in my purchase history Posted: 07 Jan 2021 06:31 PM PST I really liked playing the Infinity Blade games but as you probably know, they were taken off the App Store. They say you can still download them if you've bought them before, but I can't find them in my purchase history. Am I out of luck? [link] [comments]  | ||

| Looking for a good casual game Posted: 07 Jan 2021 01:26 PM PST I like to play mobile games while i am on an exercise bike, waiting between steps during cooking, or simply passing the time. I love slay the spire, used to play/adore elder scrolls legends (hate how devs ditched it), and always enjoyed RPG's. I am not too picky about the game, but am comfortable with rpg's and rogue likes. I would rather pay a few bucks up front than be bombarded by iap's or paywalls. Bonus points if its a monster collector type game (missing pokemon on mobile). The biggest thing I would like to avoid is urgency of daily missions and the feeling that I have to achieve maximal progress at a certain pace. Or the feeling that I should pay a bit to keep up with other players (would actually prefer single player game for this reason). I do not want a game that is going to beg me to open it the moment i wake up (and several other times throughout the day) to progress optimally. Stardew valley, terraria, solitairica have caught my eye. Please tell me some others you guys would recommend! Thanks [link] [comments]  | ||
| iOS Game Recommendation: Dominations Posted: 07 Jan 2021 08:51 PM PST I wanted to recommend Dominations on iOS/Android to those of you who are interested in a game that has a community that is still active, are into strategy / building games, and like to attack other bases. Here is what you can expect in this game Managing a Nation You manage the development of your nation by improving your defenses, troops, aircraft, resources, etc. All bases have similar buildings. However, at certain ages, you can choose a Wonder that gives your base unique characteristics. You can also use the game's museum to further tweak your base. Prefer using Heavy Tanks? Use upgrades in the museum to increase their damage/stats. More of an RPG/aircraft person? Build up their stats! Battle Mode What really sets it apart is the battle mode. You select an enemy base to attack, drop troops, donated troops, mercenaries, aircraft, etc. to take out the base ASAP. This will be the primary way you get resources to improve your base, and it is honestly fun to test your army against various bases and defenses. Alliances/Community Alliances are active for the most part, and you can easily find an active one by looking at members' last log-ins. Alliances also engage in World Wars, planned battles that help give you a substantial amount of resources, time discounts, and more. You'll likely know by Medieval Age whether it is for you, but personally it is my favorite game. Shameless Plug Also, if I enticed you to join the game, I wanted to throw in a shameless plug. Enter my recruit code after finishing the tutorial to help me earn rewards: [OLOOHHQD] But seriously, it is my favorite game on iOS, and I've been playing it for 3-4 years now! Still going strong. Hope to see you all out there! [link] [comments]  | ||
| Poyz - a good alternative to Lumines Posted: 07 Jan 2021 12:02 PM PST I recently just found out that the Lumines app no longer has active servers thus no longer works. It won't even load past the title screen. I was browsing around on the App Store and found an alternative to Lumines called Poyz https://apps.apple.com/us/app/poyz/id1383281423 It plays nearly identical to Lumines, and even offers two different control schemes (touch as well as on-screen buttons). It's F2P with ads, or can pay $2 to remove the adds. I went ahead and paid the couple bucks to support the dev. Music so far sounds pretty good, although I only played the first level so not sure how diverse or how many songs there are in it. The first song was kind of electronic-y / techno (I'm not good at describing this genre so pardon my not very descriptiveness of it). edit: If anyone has any good recommendations for a Lumines or Tetris alternatives, please share!

| Trying to find a game with unique b/w art style from back in the days Posted: 07 Jan 2021 11:12 AM PST Hey there! Back around 2013 to 2015 I played a game with an unique art style on the iPhone of a former friend. I think the developer was french but I might be wrong about that. He had multiple games that were all in similar style, isometric in a way and black and white. I remember you would walk into rooms and had to solve puzzles with weird symbols and then go back and forth, push buttons or something like that. At the time it felt almost like an art project or a passion project of a graphic designer and less like a game but it was intriguing and I'd like to find it. I'm also pretty sure that the games of this developer were free or you could often get them for free. Does anyone remember something like that? Thank you in advance! [link] [comments]  |
