| 3 Quick Tl;Dr Android Game Reviews / Recommendations (Episode 185) Posted: 13 Aug 2021 09:04 AM PDT Happy Friday, my friends - and welcome to a new episode of weekly mobile gaming recommendations based on the most interesting games I played last week. Enjoy :) Support these posts (and YouTube content + development of MiniReview) on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/NimbleThor <3 This episode includes a brand new adventure RPG with a brawl-like combat system, a nice turn-based strategy game, and a weird casual claw machine game about hamsters in space (yes, this is gonna be a great episode, haha). New to these posts? Check out the first one from 185 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:Botworld Adventure [Game Size: 363 MB] (free)Genre: RPG / Adventure / Indie - Requires Online Access Orientation: Landscape Required Attention: Full tl;dr review: [SOFT LAUNCH - ONLY SOME COUNTRIES] Botworld Adventure is a unique adventure RPG with a fun brawl-like combat system and a massive open world full of resources to collect, enemies and bosses to fight, and over 30 distinct bot characters to craft. Starting at our hometown, the town Mayor provides contracts that often involve dealing with baddies or collecting materials. While we are free to explore the world as we see fit, completing these daily contracts is the fastest way to progress. The goal is to collect resources to craft, level up, and customize our bots while expanding our family boat to unlock new gameplay elements. During combat, we start by placing three bots anywhere inside a circle and then watch them automatically attack the enemies – a bit like in Auto Chess. Meanwhile, we can launch abilities to help our bots by spending mana that replenishes over time. So although the bots fight automatically, there's constantly something to do and the combat is enjoyable. Exiting town requires one of three tickets that replenish every 30 minutes, and when exploring, we eventually run out of bot repairs, which forces us to return home. On the bright side, we can fight other player's bots controlled by an AI as much as we want, and we're not forced to participate in PvP to progress in the game. Botworld Adventure monetizes through a paid version of its PvE-focused battle pass, iAPs for more gold and resources, and incentivized ads to get more contracts and tickets. This means paying players have a pay-to-progress-faster advantage, but it doesn't ruin the free-to-play experience. There is lots to do in the game and its good sense of humor and colorful art-style gives it a friendly and casual vibe. Although the progression is slightly dragged out, it's a very well-put-together game that is great for 30–60-minute play-sessions. Google Play: Here MiniReview link: Here Griblers [Total Game Size: 93 MB] (free)Genre: Strategy / RPG / Turn-based / Single-player - Offline Playable Orientation: Landscape Required Attention: Some tl;dr review: Griblers is a turn-based offline strategy game that is played on a board game-like world map made up of hexagon tiles full of resources to collect and monsters to beat. Our home city is located in the middle of the map, and on each turn, we use our three heroes to explore the surrounding areas, one tile at a time. The goal is to complete the entire singleplayer campaign. Collecting the resources scattered around the world and bringing them back home to craft items or upgrade our heroes is a big part of the game and the primary way to grow stronger. While the game is fun and decently unique, it's also tricky to get into and rather slow-paced – especially in the beginning. For example, it takes a long while before we get to fight our first battle against a monster. A proper tutorial that explains the gameplay and UI elements would do the game well. For those who successfully get into the game, it provides a great adventure strategy RPG experience. Griblers can be completed entirely for free and monetizes through a premium-edition iAP that costs $0.99 on Android and $1.99 on iOS. Nothing extra is unlocked in the premium version – it's just a way to thank the developer. Google Play: Here MiniReview link: Here Claw Stars [Game Size: 288 MB] (free)Genre: Arcade / Casual / Cute - Requires Online Access Orientation: Portrait Required Attention: Little tl;dr review: Claw Stars is a cute casual claw machine game where we play as a space hamster on a mission to rescue pets and rebuild planets. The primary gameplay loop involves operating a claw connected to our spaceship to collect gold, premium currency, pets, power-ups, and more. The gold earned from the claw machine can then be spent on gradually rebuilding destroyed planets, and when all buildings have been fully upgraded and we've found all pets, we can move on to the next planet to repeat the process. Where the game truly shines is in its light multiplayer elements that involve stealing pets and gold from friends or random players, or temporarily preventing them from restoring the buildings on their planets. Unfortunately, the friend system that makes this part of the game truly fun requires logging in with Facebook. While it can be frustrating to realize your gold has been stolen, Claw Stars remains a casual game and it's fast to re-gain gold. The art-style is absolutely adorable and multiple ship and character customizations can even be unlocked or bought as we progress. However, while the gameplay is fun in short bursts, operating the claw machine eventually gets somewhat repetitive. For that reason, it's a game best enjoyed with friends. Claw Stars monetizes through incentivized ads and iAPs for more claws, premium currency, gold, and a subscription that provides extra claw capacity and fancy cosmetics. Although the claws work as an energy system that limits our play-session length, the overall monetization isn't horrible and there are no forced ads.

| D-pads, gamepads... What's your experience? Posted: 13 Aug 2021 09:48 AM PDT Hi everyone. I bought an xbox series x gamepad. I find its d-pad clicky, too noisy and hard. Had the same experience with xbox one slim gamepad. I really love the old xbox 360 gamepad but there isn't a comfortable way to use it with an andord device. Now I've bought a second hand dualshock 4, it should arrive next week. Hope the d-pad is mushy, and the gamepad is no noisy overall. What are your experiences with gamepads from xbox, playstation, razor, 8bitdo, switch or any other brand? [link] [comments] | ||
| Posted: 13 Aug 2021 09:01 AM PDT As the title says, I want something totally stupid. Lots of numbers and flashey animations. Just want to play something along those lines, Auto or not I'm not bothered. Only thing Im adverse to is forced ads. Thanks! [link] [comments] | ||
| Is there any way to check the battery percentage of a connected bluetooth Xbox Series X controller? Posted: 13 Aug 2021 10:56 AM PDT If I use my headphones wirelessly ( since I normally use the included wire) it displays the battery percentage. Not so for my controller. Considering that my controller of the same type doesn't last very long on my Xbox itself, I kind would like the ability to check. Thanks if anyone can assist. [link] [comments] | ||
| Posted: 13 Aug 2021 09:52 AM PDT Grand Theft Auto III, Vice City, and San Andreas appears to receive a remaster this year and expected to be released this fall 2021 For PCs, PlayStation Consoles, Nintendo Switch, Stadia and mobile devices (as said on kotaku's website) More info here: https://kotaku.com/the-gta-remastered-trilogy-appears-to-be-real-and-comi-1847474620 I just don't understand why those 3 gta titles are the ones that rockstar is making to come on android instead of GTA IV (i mean its the same games with Unreal Engine, Updated Graphics, Rewritten Game code, Higher resolution, Fresh looking ui, etc, etc but all the same gameplay, story, characters, etc, etc) Rockstar should port GTA IV on Android devices and not those Remastered games from the past And also why use unreal engine if you can use the great RAGE engine (Its a little old tho, but it will look fantastic on android devices) [link] [comments] | ||

| Posted: 12 Aug 2021 07:10 PM PDT I absolutely love this game on my PC but don't get a lot of time to play it. I feel like this style of game lends itself to mobile gaming well. Anyone aware of anything like it? [link] [comments] | ||

| Posted: 13 Aug 2021 08:50 AM PDT Hey so I know there is no 100% answer but what Android game you think gets closer to the Bethesda games ? Talking mainly about Skyrim and fallout 3/4, the huge open world with lots to explore and tons of quest formula. Don't mind the combat being turn based or anything different. Could be a free, freemium, paid or even something that you can emulate on Android. Just desperate for a huge RPG like that. [link] [comments] | ||

| Any good recent tower defense games? Posted: 12 Aug 2021 03:02 PM PDT Please, no Kingdom Rush clones. My favorites of the past were Plants vs Zombies, Fieldrunners 2, and Dungeon Warfare. Has anything new and good come out in the tower defense genre in the last couple of years? [link] [comments] | ||
| Best Game Launcher for Android? Posted: 12 Aug 2021 06:43 PM PDT I don't need anything regarding boosting performance. I mainly just want a way to neatly access my games, without ads, that isn't just a folder. [link] [comments] | ||
| What auto clicker app has this feature/option? Posted: 12 Aug 2021 09:50 PM PDT So I play this game where you click points 1 and 2 on the screen for 100 times, then you click point 3 to go to next level. What I am trying to do is make it automatic, but it is too annoying to put 100 autoclick to 2 points manually and then put one to point 3. Is there an app where you can play configs in sequence? For example, config 1 is for point 1 and 2 for certain seconds/minutes until 100, then changes to config 2, and then back again? This is what I came up with, but I am no genius. So I can't do it without the app. [link] [comments] | ||
