    5 Quick Tl;Dr Android Game Reviews / Recommendations (Episode 211)

    Posted: 25 Mar 2022 06:13 AM PDT

    Welcome back, fellow mobile gamers, to week 211 of my weekly tl;dr game recommendations based on the most interesting games I played and that were covered on MiniReview this week. Hope you'll enjoy it :)

    This episode includes an amazing survival adventure game, a neat point-and-click puzzle, a retro open-world adventure RPG, a neat offline and online action RPG, and one of the best cooking simulation games on mobile.

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

    New to these posts? Check out the first one from 211 weeks ago here.

    Let's get to the games:

    This War of Mine [Game Size: 587 MB] ($13.99)

    Genre: Survival / Strategy / Adventure - Offline Playable

    Orientation: Landscape

    Required Attention: Some

    tl;dr review by Erich Zann:

    This War of Mine is an atmospheric survival game about ordinary people trying their best to survive in a besieged city during a devastating war.

    After choosing a set of characters with unique stories and traits the game starts in a random building, where the gameplay is split into two main stages.

    The first stage happens during daytime, where we advance and develop our shelter, interact with other survivors, and take care of our character's conditions, such as hunger, illness, mood, and more.

    In the second stage, we assign roles to each of our characters, so that some guard the base, some go on a scavenging hunt, and others get to sleep through the night. Before heading out on a scavenging hunt, however, the character needs to have some tools equipped, and we must select a nearby building as the destination. Each building has its own unique characteristics and a unique map, which means picking the right ones is key to victory.

    Overall, the gameplay features elements from both the strategy, adventure, and survival genres, and it all comes together to create an experience that is both fun and engaging.

    With its washed-out colors and accurate character and level design, the art-style does a great job at creating a neat atmosphere and mood that perfectly fit the gameplay. Meanwhile, the controls are good – for the most part, at least – although buttons sometimes overlap, which is annoying.

    This War of Mine is a 13.99$ premium game with a single $1.99 DLC iAP. Thankfully, it delivers a high-quality, fun, and atmospheric experience that is almost guaranteed to stick with you for a while.

    Bluebird of Happiness [Total Game Size: 32 MB] (Free)

    Genre: Adventure / Point-and-click / Puzzle / Adventure - Offline Playable

    Orientation: Portrait

    Required Attention: Some

    tl;dr review by SleepyParrot:

    Bluebird of Happiness is a short point-and-click puzzle adventure from "Bear's Restaurant" developer Odencat that takes place in a strange dream dimension we must try to escape.

    The story begins at a festival that our character, a small boy, is visiting with his brother. At a game stand, one of the boys discovers a fascinating stuffed blue bird that he then proceeds to steal. Back home, in the middle of the night, our character has a dream about this mysterious bird, and this is where the adventure starts.

    Like in many point-and-click games, we interact with the bird and our environment by tapping to discover objects that can then be used to solve puzzles or be combined with other objects to create a new item.

    Bluebird of Happiness is a very short game that can be finished in about 30-60 minutes, but the gameplay and mysterious horror-like story are very intriguing. There are even some interesting twists towards the end, and two different endings to choose from.

    The game monetizes through a permanent banner ad at the bottom of the screen, which can be removed through a single $0.99 iAP. There are also incentivized ads in exchange for tips, but they're never really needed as the game isn't impossibly difficult.

    The cute pixel art-style is a perfect fit for the game, and despite being too short, this is overall a great game and an easy recommendation for anyone looking for a fast point-and-click adventure.

    The Quest [Game Size: 320 MB] ($7.99)

    Genre: RPG / Adenture / Open-world - Offline Playable

    Orientation: Portrait + Landscape

    Required Attention: Full

    tl;dr review by AlexSem:

    The Quest is a beautiful hand-drawn first-person RPG that introduces a vast open world full of dangerous monsters to defeat, valuable loot to collect, epic quests to accomplish, and useful skills to learn.

    True to the classics of the genre, the game offers a large variety of races, classes, and initial skills to pick from, all of which greatly affect the way we approach difficulties on our path. We can swing mighty swords or hammers and absorb the returned damage with impenetrable heavy armor, shoot enemies from afar while nimbly dodging incoming attacks, or focus on the power of the mind to wield devastating magic spells.

    Our main stats, such as strength, dexterity, and intelligence, grow only when leveling up, but there are a bunch of ways to increase our secondary skills, such as by reading books, paying trainers, and actively using each skill. These secondary disciplines allow us to experiment with various tactical approaches, while supplementary systems such as alchemy, enchantments, and wand making even further improve the diversity of the gameplay.

    While some may argue the dated graphics don't hold up by modern standards, the art-style demonstrates a decent amount of variety and spectacular richness without becoming an eyesore. Besides, the intriguing storyline, world exploration, and character development quickly captivate and immerse us in a universe where repetitive sprites don't matter. The only annoying part is the music, which I highly recommend disabling for good.

    The Quest is a $7.99 premium game without any ads or iAPs. If you enjoy classic old-school open-world RPGs, and don't mind spending dozens of hours on a single game, be sure to get The Quest - or one of its many expansions that are also available as premium standalone apps.

    Quest Hunter [Game Size: 659 MB] (Free Trial - $9.99)

    Genre: RPG / Action - Offline + Online Playable

    Orientation: Landscape

    Required Attention: Full

    tl;dr review by NimbleThor:

    Quest Hunter is a semi-open-world 3D action RPG with a story-driven questline, neat cell-shaded graphics, and four-player online co-op with cross-play functionality.

    The game world consists of a series of locations full of monsters, randomly-generated dungeons, and NPCs that progress the story through humorous conversations and quests. There's even buried treasure hidden throughout, with subtle visual cues revealing exactly where we should dig to discover a chest full of goodies.

    Almost everywhere we go, we must fight back monsters and bosses using our standard attack and a range of skills unlocked over time. However, monsters hit hard, and we have very little HP, so to avoid getting attacked, we can light torches that scare the monsters away. The only issue is we have a limited supply of torches, so we must be strategic about when to use them.

    Throughout the game, we can destroy trees, ores, and crates to gather resources used to craft new equipment and potions. We lose some of the resources in our inventory when we die, but simply respawn at camp or at the start of the dungeon. So although we die easily, the death penalty isn't crushing.

    Character customization is limited to equipping loot and upgrading one of four core stats, such as HP and damage, which means the action RPG experience is somewhat basic. Still, I can't help but feel the game plays a bit like a less hack 'n' slash-focused Eternium, which is a game I really enjoyed.

    Quest Hunter is free to play for the first few locations, after which a single $9.99 iAP unlocks the full game. It's relatively expensive and can be completed in about 15 hours, but it also offers a decent amount of replayability, and the trial means we can at least evaluate the game before buying.

    Cook, Serve, Delicious! [Game Size: 66 MB] ($3.99)

    Genre: Simulation / Cooking - Offline Playable

    Orientation: Landscape

    Required Attention: Full

    tl;dr review by CaptainQQ:

    Cook, Serve, Delicious! is a well-made strategy cooking simulator that tests our wits, reaction time, and appetite as we cook hundreds of meals and build a world-class restaurant.

    Our customers order dishes like steaks, soups, and pasta of varying difficulty, and our goal is to quickly and accurately assemble them to earn money so we can buy additional recipes and services for our restaurant.

    Each dish has good and bad traits that influence our restaurant, so we have to create and serve a balanced menu of various kinds of food - all while completing chores such as washing dishes and cleaning the toilets. If all goes well, we will accumulate a positive reputation and get more customers.

    This game is originally made for PC, where it has been very well received. The mobile port plays pretty well, but the controls can be frustrating and take some getting used to. For example, sliding our finger to slice vegetables and wash dishes can occasionally interfere with the phone OS menu and completely pull us out of the game. It also takes a while to accumulate money and progress to the higher restaurant levels, so the game can feel a little grindy.

    Although simple, I enjoyed the art-style that is somewhat reminiscent of a hand-drawn children's novel, and the catchy music that changes throughout the day to avoid getting too repetitive.

    Overall, Cook, Serve, Delicious! provides a pleasant premium restaurant simulator experience that costs only $3.99 and has no additional iAPs. The game offers dozens of hours of satisfying fun for gamers and food enthusiasts of all skill levels, and it features all the gameplay that made the PC version so popular.

    I know this doesn't have anything to do with gaming (I don't think). but every time Google play updates an app or something, this message will appear. I honestly started noticing it the last couple months and haven't been able to find out anything online about it. Anybody know if this is normal?

    Citra/Citra mmj games won't start

    Posted: 25 Mar 2022 09:02 AM PDT

    Hi,

    so i just got the new Galaxy S22(with Exynos 2200) and i've tried to play Pokemon X and Omega ruby and neither game will launch. The same files both work on my older phone Galaxy s10e (they run slowly but atleast they launch).

    Does anyone have the same problem? And are there any guesses you have? I'll post screen caps of launching the game on S22 vs S10e

    https://streamable.com/610euu (S22) https://streamable.com/fzexvj (S10e)

    Also i've checked and the settings should be same on both phones.

    Thanks in advance for any help!

    How do I claim rewards? game: Gangstar New Orleans

    Posted: 25 Mar 2022 10:52 AM PDT

    [REQUEST] I am in the search of a game which is like Black Myth: Wukong, do you have something to suggest?

    Posted: 25 Mar 2022 04:30 AM PDT

    Request Criteria

    Single/Multiplayer: Single player

    Genre: Action, Adventure? (if any of these genre are present, the game can include additional genre)

    Online/Offline: Offline preferred. Even if it requires connection to play, it's alright for me.

    Monetization/Cost: Doesn't matter if it's paid or monetized with ads. I generally prefer paid games on android, but I also understand the restrictions.

    Portrait/Landscape: Landscape

    Key Features: Monkey-with-stick combat system.

    Additional Info: Similar to Black Myth: Wukong which is about to release on 2023.

    If there isn't any game present with the similarity of the linked game, I would like any game which goes with lore of Wukong, contains Wukong and have 3D graphics (plus point for openworld-like) Or if not 3D graphic, top down is also good to go. Genre is not limited if there's really nothing in the market.

    Thank you if you do have any suggestions!

    Any decent android RPGs/sims that are offline?

    Posted: 24 Mar 2022 10:21 AM PDT

    So I'm looking for a good android game that doesn't require being online.

    I already have Stardew which I've played to death.

    I love character development, different choices/pathways, relationships (not into pure dating sims though unless they are really well written) -

    Free or single purchase only!

    I'm really more a PC gamer but I'm travelling so. I love things like Baldurs Gate, Neverwinter, Dragon age, Planescape, Vampires masquerade etc
