    3 Quick Tl;Dr Android Game Reviews / Recommendations (Episode 143)

    Posted: 29 Mar 2020 03:47 AM PDT

    Happy Sunday, fellow mobile gamers, and welcome back to my weekly summary of game recommendations based on the 3 most interesting games I've played this week :)

    In this episode, I've included a brilliant MMORPG that I've gotten very addicted to this week, a loot-based action RPG made by a Japenese indie developer, and a great little party for playing with friends disguising itself as a multiplayer side-scrolling platformer by Halfbrick Studios.

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

    New to these posts? Check out the first one from 143 weeks ago here.

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

    Here are the games:

    Titan Conquest [Game Size: 42 MB] (free)

    Genre: MMORPG / Text-Based / RPG - Requires Online Access

    Orientation: Portrait

    Required Attention: Some

    tl;dr review:

    Titan Conquest is a text-based MMORPG for mobile and browsers that I've truly fallen in love with. The game features an insane amount of loot, elaborate stats systems for our character, a very friendly community, huge server-wide boss fights, and actual interesting quests, many of which have been written by community members.

    Combat consists of tapping to use one of 3 weapon types (primary, special, and heavy) to deal with a wide variety of creatures across the very large game world. And the more we kill a specific type of creature, the more gold and XP we'll earn from future encounters with that creature type, which can be used to our advantage when grinding.

    The game is very social but features no PvP yet, which means the monetization will at most make us progress faster. However, premium currency is also earned for free while fighting monsters or selling items to other players, so the primary reason to buy the iAPs would be to support the solo indie-developer.

    This game has got me completely hooked, and despite being text based has offered me one of the best MMORPG experiences I've ever had on mobile.

    P.s. I don't usually do this, but if you want to support, you head to my profile page "NimbleThor" after level 10 and pick me as the referrer - then we both get 100 premium currency for free <3

    Labyrinth Legend [Game Size: 218 MB] (free)

    Genre: RPG / Action / Loot-based - Offline Playable

    Orientation: Landscape

    Required Attention: Full

    tl;dr review:

    Labyrinth Legend is an isometric action dungeon crawler RPG that doesn't have high-quality graphics, but makes up for that with fun loot-based gameplay and interesting and challenging boss fights.

    With pets, lots of weapons with unique attributes, and randomly generated dungeons, the game feels like what you'd expect to find in a roguelite game, although in Labyrinth Legend our character and gear is persistent.

    Monetizing through a few incentivized ads and a single $3 iAP to remove ads completely, the game is an easy recommendation for fans of action dungeon crawler RPGs.

    Battle Racing Stars [Total Game Size: 232 MB] (free)

    Genre: Multiplayer / Side-scrolling / Platformer / PvP / Real-time - Require Online Access

    Orientation: Portrait

    Required Attention: Full

    tl;dr review:

    Battle Racing Stars is a hectic multiplayer side-scrolling platform runner from Jetpack Joyride developer 'Halfbrick Studios' where we compete against 3 other players in real-time multiplayer to complete a level fastest, using weapons and abilities to delay our opponents by attacking them, or boosting our own speed for a bit.

    Between matches, we open wait-time card packs and use their content to unlock and level up a variety of heroes, each with unique attributes. Races are based on a league system where we progress from division to division if we continue winning, and an energy-gated arcade mode for casual matches.

    The matches are almost inevitably filled with bots, but the game really shines as a "party" game to play with friends in friendly 4-player PvP matches, and played this way, it's one of the more fun casual party games.

    Monetization happens through constant incentivized video ads which become somewhat frustrating, and iAPs to unlock and level up new heroes faster.

    [DEV] After a year of development, my friend and I released our first, puzzle-based game on Android - Pocket Mazes

    [DEV] After a year of development, my friend and I released our first, puzzle-based game on Android - Pocket Mazes

    ​

    https://reddit.com/link/fr52cc/video/gy3fiff8vlp41/player

    The main gameplay focuses on building paths from one point to another, while following the restrictions set by obstacles on the levels. There's also secret collectibles hidden throughout. We wanted to keep the mechanics fairly simple for our first game since game design is waaay harder than we expected.

    It's been a lot of work, not only on the game development side, but learning about setting up an LLC, getting an operating agreement, trademarks, promotional materials, and all sorts of stuff you'd rather not be doing so you can keep developing your game. I'm glad a lot of that is just in the beginning, so now we have more time to devote to our next project.

    We really would appreciate any feedback. My biggest concerns are if the game is fun, if the tutorial is clear, and if the ads are too annoying. I think the banner ad and the optional, rewarded ads are probably fine, but don't know if the one that drops every 5 levels is excessive. Definitely interested in everyone's opinions.

    Cheers!

    [REQUEST] Online multiplayer games

    Posted: 29 Mar 2020 07:07 AM PDT

    So I need a new online multiplayer game to play. I've been playing Mobile Legends since 2017, I just find myself exhausted playing it. I don't really want to play it again, so I'm trying to find a new game. I'm looking for something that is online multiplayer, something that a solo player can have fun with, and has a big enough community to participate in.

    COD: Mobile is the only gamesI play right now. I think I'm open to a new genre, just as long as it's a competitive online game.

    Any suggestions for the best fishing game?

    [REQUEST] Any gacha games with fun combat?

    Posted: 29 Mar 2020 10:34 AM PDT

    It seems everything I click on is some type of gacha game so are there any fun ones? I'm already playing Marvel Strike Force and while I like it, I'm only playing it because someone I know plays it also.

    I don't really have any preferences, just combat that's somewhat engaging. Auto combat is fine as long as I can still play manually as well.

    [REQUEST] Games which make you feel special because you collected a rare or unique item/thing/being.

    Posted: 29 Mar 2020 10:32 AM PDT

    Hi everyone! I really like the feeling when you have gotten something rare by chance and you can show it off. I have played games like a brave frontier to animal crossing that I evoke this feeling! Can anyone recommend me similar games?

    I think they tend to be worldbuilding/animal/breeding/collecting games. And bonus if they are online/multiplayer. Thanks :)

    [request] Games I can play over internet with my family

    Posted: 29 Mar 2020 01:49 AM PDT

    Hello everyone.

    So, during this quarantine time, I was wondering if you guys can recommend some games, i.e. for 3 players, that I can play with my family over the internet. Nothing complicated, stuff similar to Ludo Club etc. Basically some simple fun stuff so I can make my family think less about the virus numbers in the world, and have more fun in the moment. Thanks in advance!

    [DEV] Survival mode gameplay, what do you think?

    Posted: 29 Mar 2020 07:51 AM PDT

    [Request] Any fun indies where you play as a vampire?

    Posted: 29 Mar 2020 06:16 AM PDT

    What I'm looking for:

    • Single player

    • Something fun, or cute, or colorful, or just weird. A game that doesn't take itself too seriously and is easy going. I'm not looking for anything too dark, serious or morbid.

    • I prefer simpler or indie graphics - pixel, voxel, polygon, cartoony, hand drawn, minimalist

    • Preferably simple enough to pick up and put down.

    • Focuses on 1 character - the vampire

    • Roguelite, puzzler, platformer, card game, anything I can play at my own pace.

    What I'm not looking for:

    • Anime

    • Purely story driven without fun gameplay at it'core

    • Clickers, JRPGs, ARPGS (unless it's worth to check out)

    Looking for things like Lamp and Vamp, or some of the classic roguelites such as Pixel Dungeon, or card games like Card Thief, or Guild of Dungeoneering. Or anything else, doesn't matter that much. The important bit is that it's a vampire indie game, basically. The rest is just details.

    Thank you for any suggestions!

    Drag racing gameplay

    [REQUEST] Any good racing games with gamepad support? Not necessarily with cars.

    Posted: 29 Mar 2020 04:23 AM PDT

    Hey y'all,

    Looking for racing games with gamepad support.

    I already have need for speed, grid, the riptide series, tabletop racing series and the asphalt series. So anything that isn't those is welcome.

    Thanks!
