--- Here is a Random Mobile Game Naming Generator/u/BDMayhem created the generator back in the day in response to my original topic, in which I only analyzed 1,000 games. However, it was just UPDATED, so go ahead & give it a go! Here is my data via a google sheet, all opened sourced for you guys. Complete w/ the initial gaming list. I used this platform to do the counting - it also generated this nifty image List has been updated, due to flawed math regarding the "of" sequences. The Topic Title is incorrect, its says released in the past two years, when it should say four years. Sorry. [link] [comments] | ||
| 3 Quick Tl;Dr Android Game Reviews / Recommendations (Episode 151) Posted: 20 Nov 2020 04:52 AM PST Welcome, fellow Android gamers, to my weekly roundup of the most interesting games I lay this week. This time, with a focus on puzzle and idle games :) To quickly sum it up, I've got a high-quality match-3 game set in the Harry Potter universe that positively surprised me because of its Club system, a fun mix of a Tower Defense game and an Idle game with lots of incremental progression, and a more traditional idle RPG with a cute art-style! Disagree with my opinion? Let's have a friendly discussion below. New to these posts? Check out the first one from 151 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:Epic Monster TD [Game Size: 114 MB] (free)Genre: Tower Defense / RPG / Idle - Offline Playable Orientation: Portrait Required Attention: Idle tl;dr review: Idle Monster TD mixes elements of Tower Defense, RPG, and idle games for a unique gameplay experience with an insane level of min-maxing and endless progression. At its core, Idle Monster TD is a Tower Defense game, which means we unlock powerful monsters and place them as towers on a map so that they can defeat endless waves of enemies. As we progress, we start upgrading these monsters in a ton of different ways, including leveling them up and getting duplicates of each monster from monster packs that we buy using a currency earned through gameplay. The idle gameplay means our towers continue fighting when the game is closed, which leaves a big bag of currency waiting for us when we open the game again. With multiple targeting options and settings for each monster, there's a lot that can be min-maxed in this game. Not to mention all the technology trees, relics, and artifacts that also make us stronger in various ways. These systems add a lot of depth to the game, which creates a perfect gameplay experience for those who enjoy this type of progression. Idle Monster TD monetizes through incentivized ads and lots of iAPs for convenience upgrades. Fortunately, the daily missions and achievements provide lots of premium currency, which can be used to acquire some of the convenience upgrades without spending real-life money. The monetization is typical for idle games, and I didn't find the need to ever buy anything as a free player. Google Play: Here MiniReview link: Here Harry Potter: Puzzles & Spells [Game Size: 483 MB] (free)Genre: Match-3 / Puzzle - Offline Playable Orientation: Portrait Required Attention: Full tl;dr review: Harry Potter: Puzzles & Spells is a high-quality social-focused match-3 game where we play through a campaign of levels that takes us from the first to the last Harry Potter movie. The core match-3 gameplay experience is spiced up with magic spells, characters, and music straight out of the Harry Potter universe, which creates an immersive experience for fans of the franchise. Between levels, we unlock and level up spells that can be used in some levels, and even acquire pets with unique abilities and power-ups. The game's most unique feature is the Club meta-game system. Together with 29 other wizards, we compete against 19 clubs in a weekly league to earn the most club points by completing levels and events. By the end of every week, the 5 Clubs with the most points advance to the next tier, which unlocks new advantages for all club members. This system creates a great incentive to continue playing, and the Club chat adds nice social and teamwork elements to the game. Although it is also earned through normal gameplay, Harry Potter: Puzzles & Spells monetizes by selling additional gold through iAPs. Gold is used to buy single-use power-ups and additional lives. With a total of 5 lives, our play-session length is somewhat limited, but since we can store 15 lives provided by other club members in an inbox, it takes a while to run out of all lives. Overall, this is the most engaging match-3 game I have played, and if you're a Harry Potter fan, it's worth checking out if you don't mind playing it in bursts of 10-15 minutes. Google Play: Here MiniReview link: Here Masketeers : Idle Has Fallen [Total Game Size: 413 MB] (free)Genre: Idle / RPG - Offline Playable Orientation: Portrait Required Attention: Idle tl;dr review: Masketeers is an idle RPG where we build a team of 4 mask-wearing heroes who fight endless waves of enemies and bosses while we gradually improve their stats. Like most idle games, there are a ton of ways to grow stronger in Masketeers, including character leveling, runes, pets, relics, equipping better masks, and lots more. As we progress, we unlock additional heroes, and each time we reset to be able to progress faster, we get to pick which four heroes we want to use until the next reset. The game's most unique feature is that we trigger abilities for each hero by tapping the hero orbs that line up in two rows at the bottom of the screen. There is room for 13 orbs in total, and if multiple of the same orb type stand next to each other, they'll link together to deal more damage once tapped. Incentivized ads allow us to progress faster, although their rewards aren't so big that I felt forced to watch them. There is also a monthly $6.99 subscription for various advantages and iAPs for premium currency used to buy new masks, runes, and pets. The game is entirely singleplayer, so none of the iAPs are ever needed. While Masketeers is a decent idle RPG, nothing truly sets it apart from the rest in any meaningful way. If you enjoy the genre, you will likely have a great time playing Masketeers too.

| Ads are even more annoying than before. Posted: 20 Nov 2020 03:30 AM PST I've taken a break from F2P games for a while to play games such as KOTOR and Evoland 2, and my God, they've somehow made advertisements, an already annoying aspect worse. Recently, I started playing 'Dan The Man' after a friend recommended it to me. After finishing the prologue, every savepoint you visit on a level forces, I repeat, FORCES you to watch an UNSKIPPABLE 20-30 SECOND AD. The worse part is that the distance between two savepoints isn't even 5 minutes. And to add the final turd cherry on this garbage cake, is that it redirects you to the Play Store FORCEFULLY. No prompt whether you wanna go or if you even clicked, off to the shadow realm you go Jimbo. It's gonna be very difficult for indie developers to get far if this is the image a lot of these games are putting out. [link] [comments] | ||
| Another Eden and why their monetization is more fair? Or is it? Posted: 20 Nov 2020 12:18 PM PST So I've heard from many people that Another Eden has a very fair monetization strategy in their game. I started playing it recently and noticed that they had a lootbox based model just like other gacha rpgs. I was wondering why people think the monetization in this game is better, despite it still using a lootbox model for new heroes? [link] [comments] | ||

| Looking for a game with similar features please. Posted: 20 Nov 2020 01:43 AM PST I have been jumping from game to game over the past year trying to look for a game with he following features. They are very much all from WoW (WorldofWarcraft) I like the ability to travel the world collectong resources and then make items from them. Selling them for gold or coin or being able to trade them? Looking for a MMo preferably. Big ask and probably is a WoW thing but if anyone has a suggestion this community will. [link] [comments] | ||

| [REQUEST] Beat'em up games with innovative touch controls Posted: 20 Nov 2020 03:19 AM PST I would like to know good beat'em up games which step away from the old virtual touchscreen buttons formula, but maintaining some Streets of Rage vibes (not so simple as Beat Streets or Kung Fu Z). I used to play a lot Shaq Fu, Dan The Man and the ports of Streets of Rage series and Comix Zone, but I'm currently looking for anything without a virtual d-pad. [link] [comments] | ||
| Looking for any grindy turn-based game. Posted: 19 Nov 2020 06:51 PM PST You know, the games where you spend a week grinding rng items to get a +1. [link] [comments] | ||
| Games with worlds to be lost in? Posted: 19 Nov 2020 02:06 PM PST I want an escape. Please reccommend any game that fits in your opinion. [link] [comments] | ||

| It's so hard to find a good game to play on Android Posted: 20 Nov 2020 09:28 AM PST Five years ago I played clash of clans and it's a good game, I sold my account because the COC became boring because each update is horrible. Now in 2020 I can't find a good game to play in android.
I don't know if the problem is me or android gaming, I supposed to download PPSSPP and play psp games for now. [link] [comments] | ||
