    3 Quick tl;dr iOS Game Reviews / Recommendations (Episode 96)

    Posted: 23 Jul 2021 06:39 AM PDT

    Welcome back, my fellow mobile gamers, to a fun episode of my weekly mobile gaming recommendations based on the most interesting games I played last week. Hope you'll enjoy it :)

    Support these posts (and my content on YouTube + development of MiniReview) on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/NimbleThor <3

    This episode includes two awesome and very unique bullet hell games and a physics-based puzzle game - all three of which are relatively unknown so far. So I figured these indie developers could use some more exposure :)

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

    New to these posts? Check out the first one from 95 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:

    Super Glitter Rush [Game Size: 56 MB] (free)

    Genre: Bullet Hell / Arcade / Indie - Offline Playable

    Orientation: Portrait

    Required Attention: Full

    tl;dr review:

    Super Glitter Rush is a fun bullet-hell arcade game with a great retro art-style and a unique level-based system where we fight just a single tough boss in every level.

    To deal with the bombardment of bullets the bosses throw at us, we tap an Arcade Machine-style joystick to move our character left and right at the bottom of the screen, and shoot bullets straight up at the enemy using an action button.

    Since any enemy bullets that are hit by our bullets get destroyed and increase our damage, strategically timing our attacks to remove as many bullets from the screen as possible is the only way to survive. What truly makes the gameplay exciting, however, is that we can only shoot three bullets before we need to pick up diamonds dropped by the enemy to charge up our attack bar again, which further increases the need for being strategic.

    Although we don't grow stronger over time, we do unlock new cute characters and distinct color palettes that change the look of the game. My only slight frustration was that the joystick control wasn't perfectly optimized, although the developer is said to be working on a fix for that.

    Super Glitter Rush monetizes by occasionally showing 5-second ads between levels that can be removed through a $2.99 iAP. The game offers a fun new twist on the bullet-hell genre that makes it perfect for short but challenging play-sessions because it skips straight to the adrenaline-pumping boss fights. So it's an easy recommendation for any fan of arcade games.

    Salvagette [Total Game Size: 85 MB] (free)

    Genre: Bullet Hell / Arcade / Indie - Offline Playable

    Orientation: Landscape

    Required Attention: Some

    tl;dr review:

    Salvagette is a unique 2D turn-based bullet-hell arcade game where we attempt to destroy all enemies by crashing into them with our spaceship while avoiding a barrage of enemy bullets.

    The goal is to get through as many stages as possible, but since time only moves when we move, we have plenty of time to plan and strategize. When we've destroyed all enemies, the next stage starts and even more enemies spawn. When we eventually die, we have to start all over.

    To deal with the many interesting enemies that all have unique attacks, we receive gold for every stage completed that can be spent in a shop to buy health, a shield, increase our speed, or even deploy a bomb to destroy most of the enemies at once.

    The game eventually gets incredibly difficult, but unlike traditional bullet-hell action games where winning often comes down to being fast, Salvagette offers a much more tactical arcade gameplay experience. We can even watch replays of previous play-throughs to study exactly where we went wrong so we can improve our strategies.

    Salvagette is completely free with no ads or iAPs. Despite the somewhat repetitive core gameplay loop, its unique approach to the bullet-hell genre makes it an easy recommendation – especially for players who find bullet-hell games too fast-paced and hectic.

    Gravity Song [Game Size: 184 MB] (free)

    Genre: Puzzle / Physics-based / Indie - Offline Playable

    Orientation: Landscape

    Required Attention: Full

    tl;dr review:

    Gravity Song is a fun indie puzzle game that mixes challenging physics puzzles with arcade-like fast-paced gameplay that has us react quickly to avoid spikes, lasers, and escape from enemies.

    Throughout the 90 normal levels and five survival levels, our goal is to get a small ball to the exit portal by simply tapping where to move. The further away from the ball we tap, the faster it moves, but the tricky part is that we only have a limited number of taps available. If we fail to get to the exit before having used them all, we die and must restart the level.

    This seemingly simple core mechanic makes for a great gameplay experience when mixed with lots of different obstacles, gravity-changing elements, and enemies that constantly try to take us down.

    Although the art-style is mediocre and the UI below average, the simplistic music is soothing, the puzzles are good, and the levels well-designed.

    Gravity Song monetizes through incentivized ads that reward us with hints and the currency used to unlock new cosmetics for our ball. These ads can all be removed through a single $0.99 iAP. The relaxed monetization and fun gameplay makes it an easy recommendation for fans of physics-based puzzlers.

    Tom Clancy’s Elite Squad is going to shut down from October 2021

    Posted: 23 Jul 2021 08:17 AM PDT

    Tom Clancy's Elite Squad was the first foray of the Tom Clancy games on mobile. It is a quick-paced 5v5 RPG where one can play with specialist operators from Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six and Splinter cell. The game was released in the August of 2020. Since then, the game has amassed over a million downloads on the Play Store alone as a free to play title.

    In an announcement on their website, however, it has been revealed that Tom Clancy's Elite Squad is about to shut down on the 4th of October 2021, a decision made less than a year after the release. While the reasons aren't specified, Tom Clancy's Elite Squad team (TCES team) feels like this is the right decision at this point in time.

    To know more, you can read here or if you want to know how the game was in general, you can read the game review here.

    Double Fine's "Adventure Bundle" games have returned to the app store

    Posted: 22 Jul 2021 11:29 AM PDT

    A few days ago some started to notice that a bunch of Double Fine's games had disappeared from the iOS and Mac app stores, as well as not being able to re-download those games already purchased.

    Was not able to find a definite reason, but the four games appear to be back on both iOS and Mac app stores now, for those interested!

    The games themselves are:

    • Broken Age

    • Day of the Tentacle Remastered

    • Full Throttle Remastered

    • Grim Fandango Remastered

    Apple TV with Apple Arcade for traditional gaming?

    Posted: 22 Jul 2021 01:59 PM PDT

    Hello all, after recently seeing a lot of positive coverage on the apple arcade exclusive Fantasian and seeing a few games on the service that look up my alley I'm wondering if you would suggest an Apple TV with Apple Arcade as supplement to my current Switch. I have a particular fondness for RPG's but frequently play other types of games so that's not a deal breaker if there aren't a ton.

    My one and only use for the Apple TV would be for gaming and I don't want to be limited to games that are more mobile focused (I have enjoyed several of them but that's not what I'm looking for) so I want to be sure there's enough meat there to justify the investment. The other functions of the Apple TV I can get more easily from my smart TV so other than a more responsive interface I don't see myself using it for streaming apps.

    Looking for an mmorpg to play instead of Albion, my ipad can’t handle it.

    Posted: 22 Jul 2021 10:03 AM PDT

    Hi i've been having a real blast the past couple of days with Albion Online, but it keeps crashing, my ipad 5th gen is too old. Can anyone recommend an older mmo that i could try? I really loved that there was no character class and no auto battle in Albion. I played quite a bit of Crusaders of Light a couple years ago and no other rpg got my attention since. I've tried BDO, genshin (same issue), and a few others, but they all feel the same to me…

    Looking for a space ship combat game

    Posted: 22 Jul 2021 10:56 AM PDT

    It was a 2d game where you could buy space ships and make them fight with other fleets. One thing I remember is that there used to be surface on the bottom of the map.
