    Portrait Roguelikes

    Posted: 13 Feb 2022 04:15 AM PST

    What I mean by this is portrait games where you get different power ups and when you die you start from the beginning but with some progression.

    I've been playing a lot of PunBall and Archero, but they're riddled with IAPS. I much prefer portrait games to landscape so no landscape games

    Looking for recommendations for games you can play mindlessly

    Posted: 13 Feb 2022 02:03 AM PST

    I have just finished playing through Alto's Odyssey for the second time and am at a loss of what to play next. I need to keep my hands busy while I'm watching tv if I want to relax, so I like to play games that don't require much brain power! Other games I have loved in the past are Peggle, Dune, Super Mario Run andTemple Run. I've also played and enjoyed Grand Mountain Adventure, Monument Valley, Angry Birds, Candy Crush type games, Stack, etc.

    Would love any suggestions!!

    Cards of Darkness one-time purchase?

    Posted: 13 Feb 2022 06:34 AM PST

    Hello all. I'm a newbie to the Apple gaming scene but I really want this game. I'm willing to buy an IOS device just for it as I don't have any currently. My concern is the Arcade subscription. Does this game have a one-time purchase or is it subscription only? Thanks!

    Any good business simulator type games?

    Posted: 12 Feb 2022 01:11 PM PST

    Been playing the heck out of Coffee Inc 2 and enjoying it.

    Played the Kairosoft games already. Not exactly what I'm looking for, but pretty good.

    Those are the two big ones I always see mentioned. Any other good ones out there?

    Looking for recommendation - relaxing game like Steep.

    Posted: 12 Feb 2022 09:20 AM PST

    Hey everyone - not sure if there's anything like this for iPhone/iPad but in case you all have some suggestions:

    I sometime spend hours on Steep just relaxing. The mountain environment (I live the outdoors) is incredible. I'm not even playing events…just skiing downhill and exploring.

    Is there anything with that same type of relaxing/exploration/outdoor vibe that you can think of?

    It can be a RPG as long as it isn't fast paced…just want something outdoorsy that can help me forget where I am for a time. Bonus points if it can be played offline (I'm an airline pilot and commute - so between non revving and deadheading I have an unbelievable amount of time just sitting around airports/on airplanes not working).

    Thanks for any/all advice!

    Genshin Impact: Is Pop-in an Unavoidable Issue? (iPad Pro A12X)

    Posted: 12 Feb 2022 11:24 AM PST

    I've seen a handful of Genshin benchmarks in this sub, and the Genshin sub seems to be nothing but fan art, so hopefully this is an appropriate place to post.

    When running Genshin on my 2018 iPad Pro 12.9 with A12X chip the draw distance / texture pop-in is quite jarring most of the time. I've tried fiddling with the settings but can't seem to fix it.

    Is this an issue with older (but IMO still completely capable) silicon, the mobile version of the game, or with Genshin across the board?

    Why Did My Post Get Removed?

    Posted: 11 Feb 2022 01:32 PM PST

    Are there any moderators that I can contact so that I can understand why my post was removed? It was a written review of DragonSpear-EX and it already received a reward and positive reception by our community.

    I've had this happen in the past with some of my posts and I never receive a reason why. I would appreciate the communication.

    Thanks!

    DragonSpear-EX Review

    Posted: 11 Feb 2022 11:51 AM PST

    I am a huge fan of of the game Dragon's Crown and DragonSpear-EX heavily reminded me of it. That ultimately lead me to taking the plunge on the game. After playing the game for several hours, I want to share a few concise review points about the game to help others who may be debating on whether to get the game too.

    I also have a short 5 minute video review of DragonSpear-Ex that provides more information and gameplay for anyone who may be interested.

    Feel free to check it out here: https://youtu.be/6_rSk0UrdMk

    Alright, let's get right into it!

    ———————————————————————————— DragonSpear-EX Review ————————————————————————————

    THE GOOD STUFF

    1. Beautiful fantasy art style and sound design. Environments, enemies, and bosses are extremely varied and help stave off any visual monotony. 2. Flashy and fun beat 'em up style combat. There are also a wide variety of abilities to unlock and customize, as well as distinct classes that encourage experimentation. 3. Rewarding Diablo-like loot system and progression. Loot actually changes the look of your character, unlike many other games of a similar ilk. 4. Lengthy single-player campaign. There are multiple worlds consisting of multiple levels. Obtaining a perfect score on every level in a world unlocks more difficult levels to play with other players. 5. Online multiplayer cooperative raids. You can easily party up with other players to obtain loot that you otherwise can't receive. This adds a ton to the end-game content. 6. Tight and responsive controls. There is plenty of settings and options to help this game run as smoothly as possible on most mobile devices. 7. No IAP's. You heard that right. This is a completely premium experience despite everything I've previously mentioned. Only $4.99. 

    THE BAD STUFF

    1. Oversexualization of females. The anatomy of females is very exaggerated and their clothing is sparse. This will probably make this game a no-go for some people, which is understandable. 

    ————————————————————————————

    I hope this helps y'all decide whether or not to pick DragonSpear-EX up! It's my favorite mobile release of 2022 so far and it deserves more love!

    If you have already played the game, please share your thoughts about it in the comments down below! The more, the merrier!

    Thanks for reading!

    I’m working on a video of the top iOS games of all time I want to throw some good retro ones still on the App Store! Any suggestions?

    As you can see in the picture, you need to manipulate different characters in the game to fight these monsters. Each character has corresponding skills, appearance, and weapons. Everyone can match it according to their own preferences.Each monster will correspond to a different operation, and this setting will allow you to challenge more difficult songs.However, since it is only a test version at present, there will be a lot of features that have not been shown in the game. In order to better communicate with players, we have set up a discord channel. Everyone can speak freely in it.

    5 Quick tl;dr iOS Game Reviews / Recommendations (Episode 118)

    Posted: 11 Feb 2022 05:22 AM PST

    Welcome back to this weekly Friday tradition, where I share my very best mobile gaming recommendations based on the most interesting games I played and that were covered on MiniReview this week :)

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

    This episode includes an amazing new roguelike deck-builder, a fun casual solitaire-like indie game with a fantasy RPG twist, one of the best strategy board games on mobile, a neat 2D fighting action game, and a classic escape-room puzzler.

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

    New to these posts? Check out the first one from 118 weeks ago here.

    Let's get to the games:

    Breach Wanderers: Roguelike [Game Size: 181 MB] (Free)

    Genre: Deck-building / Roguelike - Offline Playable

    Orientation: Landscape

    Required Attention: Some

    tl;dr review by NimbleThor:

    Breach Wanderers is a fun roguelike deck-builder with an interesting turn-based combat system, over 600 unique cards, a deep level of strategic freedom, and lots of random events.

    Part of what sets the game apart is that we unlock both temporary and permanent cards. During a playthrough, every battle won lets us pick one of three cards to add to our deck until we die, and between runs, we buy packs that unlock permanent cards used to customize our starting deck, making the game feel like a unique mix of a traditional deck-builder and a CCG.

    At the start of a run, we're presented with a Slay the Spire-inspired map that lets us decide which path to take towards the boss at the end. During combat, we draw a hand of cards and use mana to deploy cards. The combat experience feels great, with lots of small intricacies, like a mana pool that is capped but can "overflow", and our health that gets permanently reduced if we take enough damage.

    Another part I really enjoyed was the many different effects we can apply on enemies, like frozen, fire, poison etc., each of which triggers a unique action. Some cards even deal more damage if an enemy is impacted by one of these effects, creating some neat synergy opportunities. Meanwhile, the game attempts to avoid the repetitiveness haunting many other roguelikes through permanent-progress upgrades to our hero and town.

    Breach Wanderers monetizes through ads occasionally shown after fights and infrequent incentivized ads – both of which can be entirely removed through a single $2.99 iAP. Other iAPs allow you to unlock cards faster, but there's no need to buy these.

    Despite some small UI quirks, the game is very promising, and with an impressive lineup of new features planned for 2022, I think its gameplay could even jump from a score of 8 to 9 if things play out nicely.

    Cards of Terra [Total Game Size: 214 MB] (free)

    Genre: Card / Casual - Offline Playable

    Orientation: Landscape

    Required Attention: Some

    tl;dr review by AlexSem:

    Cards of Terra is a fantasy-themed solitaire-like card game in which we attempt to get rid of cards on the playing field by repeatedly dragging one card to another, causing them to engage in battle.

    A level features a grid of stacked cards, with the topmost cards turned face up. Each card represents a battle unit, with a color defining its faction and a numeric value indicating its strength and health.

    To clear the board, we must drag units of different factions on top of each other to have them fight and deal mutual damage based on their strength stat. When a card's health reaches zero, it is removed from the grid, and the next card in the stack gets revealed.

    Starting out easy and simple, the game quickly grows quite challenging. For example, most units have special effects that trigger based on certain conditions and then target themselves, allies, or enemies to deal damage, move cards around, or modify their strength and alignment.

    Most levels don't require clearing the entire playing field but simply revealing certain cards - so the key to victory lies in getting rid of specific cards while leaving the rest intact. Later, we also start receiving special power-ups that greatly aid us in dealing with various challenges, but since these have limited usage, they should be utilized with care.

    Cards of Terra monetizes through occasional ads shown between levels, but they appear very seldom, can be skipped, or even removed altogether with a single $2.99 iAP. After the short campaign is finished, there is still lots to do in the game's random levels, brain-scratching puzzles, and interesting draft mode where we use cards picked from a randomized pool. Fans of clever solitaire card games will definitely enjoy Cards of Terra.

    Through the Ages [Game Size: 160 MB] ($9.99)

    Genre: Board / Strategy - Offline + Online Playable

    Orientation: Landscape

    Required Attention: Some

    tl;dr review by Pete McD:

    Through The Ages is a complex but highly enjoyable board game where we build up our civilization from ancient times to the modern era. Our aim is to be the player with the most culture points by the end, and the game can be played with 2-4 players online, via offline pass-and-play, or against an AI with three levels of difficulty.

    Each round starts with an optional 'Politics' phase, where we can declare war, make treaties, or set up future events. Next is the 'Action' phase, where we improve our science, buildings, and military. We do all this by choosing from cards at the top of the screen and managing tokens that represent our workers and resources. Part of what makes the game exciting is that our type of government limits how many actions we can take each turn and that we have to carefully balance our resources so we don't limit our next turns.

    There's a tutorial with the game designer himself implemented as an in-game character, which is lengthy but good fun. Due to the complexity of the game, the tutorial is a must, so I'm glad effort went into making it a good experience. It takes a lot of patience to learn the rules, and mastering strategies that let us actually win a game takes even longer. After a few rounds, however, things start to make more sense.

    The fact that the game successfully recreates the experience of a Civilization-style videogame in a 40-minute card-based board game format is incredible. The app runs smoothly and even has a few quality-of-life features that make it easier to play digitally.

    Through The Ages is a $9.99 premium game with a $4.99 expansion DLC and it's almost guaranteed to impress anyone who loves strategy board games.

    ICEY [Game Size: 367 MB] ($2.99)

    Genre: Action / Fighting - Offline Playable

    Orientation: Landscape

    Required Attention: Full

    tl;dr review by AlexSem:

    ICEY is a fast-paced fighting action-platformer set in a futuristic sci-fi universe where we battle hordes of enemies while preparing to take down a mighty crime lord.

    In order to achieve our goal, we travel across atmospheric 2D side-scrolling maps to fight enemies by jumping, dodging, and using various attacks and combos to land spectacularly powerful moves.

    The money we get from defeating opponents lets us purchase upgrades that increase our stats, unlock new moves, or improve existing ones. Regardless of these upgrades, however, defeating the powerful intermediate bosses and the final boss at the end of the game requires training precise maneuvers and learning to dodge at just the right moments.

    The gameplay is not as simple as it might look, though, as fighting evil enemies is only a facade for what is happening behind the screen. Throughout the game, we're guided by a seemingly friendly 'Narrator' who constantly comments about the current situation of the in-game world and our actions in it. It's also this narrator that provides the arrows we must follow to progress the story. However, if we ignore his guidance and chose a path on our own, he becomes agitated, angry, and disappointed, which begs the question if we should really listen to anything he has to say. Exploring these hidden secrets and uncovering the actual truth is an essential part of the game.

    ICEY is a $2.99 premium game with no ads or additional iAPs. Despite its somewhat dull animations and poorly written plot, it provides a solid gameplay experience for anyone fond of fast-paced fighting action with rich visual effects.

    App Store: Here


    The Room [Game Size: 289 MB] ($0.99)

    Genre: Puzzle - Offline Playable

    Orientation: Landscape

    Required Attention: Some

    tl;dr review by Pete McD:

    The Room is a classic escape-room game with stunning graphics, an eerie atmosphere, and tricky logic-based puzzles.

    We play as an unknown character trapped in a house loft where we open intricate puzzle boxes that become progressively more complicated to solve with each chapter. Some of these boxes have contraptions inside of them that range from relatively straightforward cog-based mechanisms that we must figure out how to activate, to something much more complicated, such as a piano or even a mini film projector.

    The game perfectly suits touch controls and is highly tactile, making something as mundane as pushing and sliding various buttons and switches satisfying. The graphics only enhance this experience and have held up very well considering the game's age. There is an almost photorealistic feel to the boxes and a fantastic attention to detail, right down to the textures of wood and lighting.

    One of the game's most unique elements is a special lens we find early on that allows us to see writing and markings not visible with the naked eye, and even see through objects and surfaces to manipulate items in what seems to be a different dimension. Since this feature isn't overused, it retains its novelty throughout the game and adds a bit of extra to the puzzle solving.

    While the entire game is shrouded in mystery, we do occasionally discover enigmatic notes left by someone known as "AS" that hint at a plot going on in the background. Combined with the music, this evokes an intense atmosphere without distracting from the gameplay.

    The Room really sets the bar high for this genre - and arguably for mobile gaming as a whole. And as a $0.99 premium game, it provides a completely immersive experience with no ads or IAPs.

    Hi guys, I'm trying to find a game that I used to play with my first iPhone, an iPhone 4. The game consisted of driving a car on the highway and having to collide with other cars of the same color, the color was changing every time they collided . I would really appreciate knowing its title and if it is still available on the App Store. Thanks a lot!

    I'm looking for two genres of games, some type of clicker/idle games with an ascension system, and a TCG, like a game where you can collect and trade cards with other players, I've tried a wresting one, but because I'm not interested in wrestling I wasn't interested in collecting.
