| 3 Quick Tl;Dr Android Game Reviews / Recommendations (Episode 159) Posted: 29 Jan 2021 04:09 AM PST Friday means mobile game recommendations, so as tradition has it, here are my weekly suggestions of the week :) This episode includes a very unique cyperpunk-themed arcade game, a cute new adventure platformer, and a story-driven MMORPG with a JRPG combat system! Disagree with my opinion? Let's have a friendly discussion below. New to these posts? Check out the first one from 159 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:Dadish 2 [Game Size: 110 MB] (free)Genre: Platformer / Adventure / Indie / Humoristic - Offline Playable Orientation: Landscape Required Attention: Full tl;dr review: Dadish 2 is a humoristic platform adventure game about a radish dad on a mission to save his radish kids who got scattered across the game's 50 levels after they got lost on their way to a "bring your kids to work" day. Using the left-side of the screen to walk in either direction and the right-side to jump, we make our way through obstacles, traps, and bosses, to get to our kid at the end of the level, while trying to collect each level's hidden star. In many ways, Dadish 2 is the essence of a good indie platformer experience, with fun characters, pleasing pixel-art, controller support, secrets to discover, and challenging level designs. Dadish 2 monetizes through ads shown between deaths, with a single $2.99 iAP to remove the ads. Google Play: Here MiniReview link: Here Hyperforma [Total Game Size: 429 MB] (free)Genre: Arcade / Puzzle / Sci-Fi - Offline Playable Orientation: Portrait Required Attention: Full tl;dr review: Hyperforma is a cyberpunk-themed one-of-a-kind arcade puzzle game, both in terms of gameplay, visual style, and its mysterious story that we unravel by playing through the game's seven chapters. Our objective is to hack an ancient computer network in cyberspace by attacking its core with our character. The core is surrounded by a 3-dimensional shell of blocks that we must first break. To do so, we rotate the shell of blocks to find weak spots and then tap the screen to launch our character towards the block. Depending on how quickly we solve the level and how many blocks we destroy, we can receive up to three keys used to unlock new levels. The futuristic sci-fi backgrounds, colorful ambient, and visual effects look stellar, and the music and sound effects create a truly immersive atmosphere. Although we unlock new skills as we progress, such as the ability to clone ourselves, the core gameplay never changes, which makes it slightly repetitive. Thankfully, the intriguing story and interesting universe helps make up for that. The free version of Hyperforma monetizes through ads between levels and a $4.99 iAP that unlocks all seven chapters, removes the ads, provides double xp, and lets us change the difficulty. Interestingly, we can also unlock new chapters by acquiring every key from previous levels, with the option to watch ads to receive keys from the levels we haven't already gained three keys in. Google Play: Here MiniReview link: Here Magatsu Wahrheit [Game Size: 3.8 GB] (free)Genre: JRPG / MMO / 3D / Gacha / Semi-open World - Requires Online Access Orientation: Landscape Required Attention: Some tl;dr review: (The game may unfortunately soon close!) Magatsu Wahrheit is a high-quality JRPG with MMO gameplay elements, a 3D semi-open world, and an interesting combination of gameplay mechanics for fans of story-based single- and multiplayer RPGs. From within the game's main city, we can freely visit various NPCs to buy or upgrade our equipment, or launch directly into quests and missions, either alone or with a party of other players. The world is fully 3D, but once we enter combat, we're loaded into a combat scene where we can't move our character and simply trigger abilities to attack the enemies or buff and heal our party. The slow-paced combat can at times feel somewhat dull, but the many events, the interesting world exploration, and the deep character customization through gear and a skill-tree help make up for that. Although the English translation isn't perfect, the game's lengthy and in-depth story has an almost visual-novel feel to it. It's an interesting and well-written story, but if you don't care for it, the long cut-scenes might end up frustrating you. Magatsu Wahrheit monetizes through a premium currency gacha mechanic for equipment and weapons. Although the game is decently generous with providing free premium currency, more can be bought through iAPs. Magatsu is a somewhat grindy game, but there's no strict need to spend money on the iAPs to enjoy the game.

| Any recommendations for a good JoyCon-esc controler? Posted: 29 Jan 2021 11:47 AM PST Title, and apologies if this isn't the right sub or formating I'm looking for a good quality controller that I can attach around my phone, kinda like a pair of JoyCons, With nice feeling Sticks/buttons/D-pad and all that jazz. Something that could work with different phones as I plan to eventually get a new phone. And preferably with the ability to use it without bluetooth if that's possible, like via connection it the the phones usb-c socket or something; idk if anything can do that, but it would be nice. I don't really care for most mobile games, just want to comfortably use emulators, so I wouldn't mind if it lacked features specifically designed for those, if there are actually things like that. Price or age doesn't really matter to me, unless it's ridiculously expensive Oh, and I forget to mention, minimal input lag Basically, a no-frills, nice quality controller, that preferably can be used without bluetooth Thanks in advance!

| Posted: 29 Jan 2021 11:46 AM PST So apparently there is a Bluetooth version of the GameSir X2 coming out soon. Their PR got in touch with me and said they would be sending one to review. This new version will have a proper DPAD. [link] [comments] | ||

| Posted: 29 Jan 2021 03:33 AM PST The game is phenomenal. The soundtracks are so good. The progression system is good. The graphics are decent. Almost every building is destrucable. It was fun and addicting. The bosses design is so cool. 10/10 would recommend it. [link] [comments] | ||

| Finding a Slingshot Game (Estimated time 2010-2020) Posted: 29 Jan 2021 12:53 AM PST Just shooting my shots here. Heh. So an old slingshot game but no 3D slingshot on screen. 2D based, kind of bubble shooter set in space. So the idea is at the bottom of the screen, you drag this ball (your bullet) to shoot this kind of alien moving around with various shapes. There are some kind of powerups that you can get but what interests me are the alien/target types. Let me draw a bit. Just hoping for that nostalgia rush. Not sure whether it's still on GP or not. Found about it back then from old YT videos "Top 10 Android Games 20xx". [link] [comments] | ||
| Posted: 28 Jan 2021 02:02 PM PST Sorry if these sort of posts aren't allowed, I understand if it gets removed. I just couldn't find an answer anywhere online so this is my next best hope. Today I have tried to make in app purchases within a few different games. When I go to make a purchase I get the pop-up where I can click "1 tap buy" and then get to scan my thumb-print. But now it tells me to open my banking app and authorise the payment. Opening my banking app closes the transaction pop-up so when I go back to the game I need to start the transaction all over again and the same problem happens. This has never been a problem in the past (on Sunday I made a purchase without issue, so the problem started within the last few days) Does anyone else have this issue? Does anyone know how to fix it? [link] [comments] |
