    [REQUEST] Can anymore help me ID a game, possibly by gameloft

    Posted: 12 Mar 2022 05:29 PM PST

    I'm about sixty percent sure game loft had a town building game in the mid 2010s where you could free people from crystal prisons in a cloud of dark fog. It could have been another developer but I remember their logo. The cover of it had a yellow dragon, but I don't think there were actually any dragons in the game. Or if there were you had to be at a really high level to unlock them. I know Gameloft had a game about dragons but that's not the one I'm looking for. I even went through their whole wiki and I can't find it.

    The graphics were cartoons but really beautifully done with a fantasy style. You started off by freeing two characters, then their homes would produce things for you to use. Their was a girl who I think grew apples, and a boy who might have been a leather mill or a wood cutter. I think you clicked on the building and swiped a picture of a golden coin towards it. You could trade these things with a troll, or put them on a boat and send them to market. You could also make them into supplies to explore ruins where you got special items. I think each character had a horse (I seem to remember them because one was green and had clovers in its mane) but they were very hard to unlock and I could never get one. You kept expanding your town by removing the fog, when you removed enough of it you got to a new character. You break them out of rectangular crystal blocks by tapping on them.

    There was a fairy, a pirate and a lot of others. I think the fairy was Caucasian and very brightly colored, and the pirate might have been black with a red and white color palette. I can see it so vividly in my head.

    Some important items were apples, leather gloves, boots, rope, and possibly blueberries.

    Thank you in advance for any help.

    Posted: 12 Mar 2022 04:27 PM PST

    Hi everyone! Recently I've been getting into android games and fell in love with Rusty Lakes. The Guides saga was also particularly good, even if it felt like lacking a deeper plot. Now I'm looking for other suggestions, here are my requirements:

    Single/Multiplayer: single Genre: any Online/Offline: any Monetization/Cost: preferably free, but I've payed for quality Portrait/Landscape: any Key Features: puzzles and enigmas

    Thanks!

    What's the best way to stream games to my phone under the below circumstances?

    Posted: 12 Mar 2022 02:59 PM PST

    Hello everyone, I hope you are doing great.

    Well, I recently bought a gaming laptop and the experience is so good until now, but it's not always the most comfortable way to play. I'm currently trying to play Outlast while being in video call with my girlfriend, and as I like to see her reacting to the jumpscares (despite being me the coward one), I tried streaming Teamviewer to my OPPO A5 2020, so the call window will remain picture in picture.

    And it does work well, excepting for the fact that it's laggy, not the biggest issue but it gets less enjoyable. I have to clarify that I am using a local network.

    So, my question is, is there any application which would perfom better than the one mentioned? Or, it depends on my network speed?

    I have heard of Steam link, but I am using a cracked version. I can pay, but, if I can avoid it, I'd prefer to, because I already paid back in the day for the PS4 version

    Thank you in advance!

    P.S: I don't know if it's okay to post about a cracked game, I apologise in case

    Looking for similar games

    Posted: 12 Mar 2022 12:25 PM PST

    I'm currently enjoying Marvel Strike Force and Disney Sorcerer's Arena, and I know that there is a star wars game with a very similar design. Anyone know of other games that are essentially the same mechanics dressed up with a different franchise? Would be particularly keen on a Naruto or Bleach themed one. Not looking for cheap or rushed games, but an early access or future game would be notable as well.

    Neopets jewel game?? Modern equivalent!?

    Posted: 11 Mar 2022 09:02 PM PST

    I am looking for a jewel game that I used to play on Neopets.

    It wasn't a simple Match-3. The game allowed you to build blocks of colors before moving them off the board; there was a bit of strategy. The jewels came in a row from the top, and the speed increased as game play went along.

    I always played in Zen mode because I liked building color blocks.

    Does anyone know of a modern jewel game with this style play? I would enjoy playing again.

    Games to play with friends on vacation?

    Posted: 12 Mar 2022 08:32 AM PST

    Hello!

    I'll be going on vacation with some friends and wanted to have something we could play, so I thought about bringing my tablet along with a few PS4 controllers.

    We all enjoy playing fighting games so i decided to install Vita Fighters and found it pretty fun.

    I was wondering if you guys have any more recommendations, they don't necessarily have to be Fighting Games but I'd aprecitate if they are and if they are controller compatible.

    Thanks!

    [Request] Looking for a jigsaw puzzle game where you supply the pictures

    Posted: 12 Mar 2022 04:56 AM PST

    I see lots of puzzle games out there, but not many where you can use your own pictures. I'd like to be able to have a folder on my phone, and have the puzzle generated from those pictures. A paid game is fine. Any suggestions?

    5 Quick Tl;Dr Android Game Reviews / Recommendations (Episode 209)

    Posted: 11 Mar 2022 04:25 AM PST

    Welcome back, my fellow Android gamers :) These are my weekly mobile gaming recommendations based on the most interesting games I played and that were covered on MiniReview this week :)

    Support these posts (and YouTube content + development of MiniReview) on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/NimbleThor <3

    This episode includes a fun new puzzle dungeon-crawler, a neat adventure runner, a fun arcade side-scroller that reminds me of the "good old games" like Jetpack Joyride, a true classic action/adventure RPG, and an obscure 2D story-driven adventure.

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

    New to these posts? Check out the first one from 209 weeks ago here.

    Let's get to the games:

    Dungeons of Dreadrock [Game Size: 172 MB] (Free)

    Genre: Dungeon Crawler / Puzzle / Indie - Offline Playable

    Orientation: Landscape

    Required Attention: Full

    tl;dr review by NimbleThor:

    Dungeons of Dreadrock is a dungeon-crawling action puzzle game where we play as an older sister entering a dangerous cave to save her brother. Her little brother was told by the city elders that he was destined to defeat the darkness looming inside, but we soon learn that there's a much more sinister plan at play and things aren't all as they seem.

    Each dungeon floor is a one-screen level split into squares that we can move up, down, left, and right to travel across. The goal is to reach the stairway leading further down, but to get there, we must deal with locked doors, traps, and enemies that we defeat by bumping into them. Thankfully, we can choose to enable a free help system if we get stuck.

    Where Dungeons of Dreadrock truly shines is in its unique puzzle designs that make the levels all feel as one coherent universe. For example, some levels have us escape a troll hunting us across multiple dungeon floors, while another level has us chase an enemy back to a previous level before we can catch him.

    Accompanying these 100 well-crafted puzzles is a beautiful pixel art-style and a high-quality soundscape. And numerous small details like the sound of running water that changes from only playing on one speaker to playing on both when we stand right in front of it help create a truly immersive experience.

    The controls are definitely the game's biggest downside, and I often ended up unintentionally moving in the wrong direction. Thankfully, there's Bluetooth controller support.

    Dungeons of Dreadrock monetizes through ads occasionally shown between levels, and a single $1.99 iAP to entirely remove them. It's a quality game that really surprised me, and it's well worth checking out for anyone fond of dungeon crawlers or puzzle games.

    Summer Catchers [Total Game Size: 360 MB] ($3.99)

    Genre: Runner / Adventure - Offline Playable

    Orientation: Landscape

    Required Attention: Full

    tl;dr review by AlexSem:

    Summer Catchers is a story-driven endless runner in which we travel through beautiful pixel-art landscapes, collecting mushrooms, avoiding obstacles, and solving various quests in the process.

    After taking hold of an old wooden scooter, we start our adventure towards the sunny sea. The path is long and deadly, and along the way we'll face different obstacles, such as snowdrifts, ice spikes, high hills, wooden posts, and many others.

    To overcome these obstacles, we use the tools in our bag, such as the bumper that crashes barriers, tires that jump over pits, rockets that provide a boost, and so on. Failing to use the appropriate tool in time makes our vehicle take damage and eventually crash, forcing us to start over. The tools are also all consumables, so before starting a ride, we should visit the shop to stock up on them by spending mushrooms gathered through gameplay.

    Throughout our journey, we progress the story by completing quests that have us cut down dead trees, fight parasitic bugs, fertilize the soil, and much more – each of which requires a specific tool to get the job done. Successfully completing groups of quests initiates a boss battle where we have to run away from a powerful creature for a long period of time and need to endure the entire sequence without crashing. Those are the most intense parts of this otherwise relaxing game, and they might frustrate some casual players, just like the repetitiveness holds the game back a bit.

    Summer Catchers is a $3.99 premium game without ads or iAPs. It features nice pixel graphics, beautiful art, soothing music, and although it may not appeal to a wide audience, it is a well-made arcade game perfectly fit for a casual mobile experience.

    Ninja Chowdown [Game Size: 196 MB] (Free)

    Genre: Arcade / Runner / Side-scroller - Offline Playable

    Orientation: Landscape

    Required Attention: Full

    tl;dr review by NimbleThor:

    Ninja Chowdown is a fun arcade side-scrolling runner about a chubby donut-loving Ninja that has been sent out to catch the thief that stole a precious ingredient from the donut shop he works at.

    The game features a level-based structure with a boss fight every six levels. During these missions, our character automatically runs while we then tap the left side of the screen to jump or double jump, and the right side to throw shurikens. We can even tap and hold the right side to enter a neat slow-mo mode and aim our shuriken in any direction. This comes in handy when the enemies soon enough don't only attack from the front, but also from behind our character.

    There are a bunch of fun and unique enemies, like pigeons, samurais, and bomb-throwing ninjas on bikes, and the order in which these enemies and obstacles appear is randomly generated, guaranteeing that no replay feels exactly the same.

    It's a fairly difficult game, but apart from the many humorous cosmetics purchased with gold earned through gameplay, there's nothing to upgrade. So we just simply have to become good at the game, which is honestly refreshing.

    The cute visual style looks great and is highly polished. However, the running animation alternates between running and walking, which means we continuously move fast, then slow for a bit, then fast again. This is part of what intentionally makes the game difficult, but I didn't personally like it.

    Ninja Chowdown monetizes through a few incentivized ads, and frequent ads shown between deaths that can be removed through a single $2.99 iAP. It's a throwback to simpler times in the world of mobile gaming and is absolutely worth a play for any arcade fan.

    Oceanhorn [Game Size: 290 MB] (Free Trial - $5.49)

    Genre: RPG / Action / Adventure - Offline Playable

    Orientation: Landscape

    Required Attention: Full

    tl;dr review by AlexSem:

    Oceanhorn is a beautiful 3D RPG action-adventure game heavily inspired by the famous Legend of Zelda series.

    We play as a young boy on a dangerous quest to find his lost father and defeat a powerful mechanical beast. On this journey, we travel by boat to visit a number of islands, help locals in need, explore dungeons and ruins, find valuable loot, learn new skills and spells, solve various mechanical puzzles, and fight a large variety of angry monsters.

    Killing bosses and accomplishing quests reward us with new useful items, such as arrows used to shoot enemies from a distance, bombs that can blow up passages, and boots that let us jump across gaps. Most locations can't be entirely completed when we first discover them, forcing us instead to revisit once we've acquired the appropriate tools and items that let us progress further.

    The game demonstrates outstanding visual and audio quality, providing an impressive experience even by today's standards. Locations and objects are highly detailed, monsters behave naturally, the combat effects look amazing, and there's a full day and night cycle.

    While the game supports external controllers, the touch controls are smooth and comfortable, only showing a few issues during fishing sequences. Although the game isn't as long and complex as some other open-world RPGs, it's a rare gem of a mobile game that provides up to 15 hours of captivating gameplay.

    The first island is free-to-play, with a single $5.49 iAP unlocking the remaining content. The price is more than fair for a game this well-made, and if you still haven't played it yet, definitely go give it a try.

    farewell planet [Game Size: 104 MB] ($3.99)

    Genre: Adventure / Story-Driven - Offline Playable

    Orientation: Landscape

    Required Attention: Some

    tl;dr review by Yousef:

    Farewell Planet is an obscure and heartbreaking 2D adventure game where we borrow the bodies of other villagers to grant them their last wishes.

    The game takes place in a desolate world once inhabited by machines, where we are the only remaining survivor. Using our special ability to take over a machine's soul and access its memories, our objective is to fulfill each machine's last wish and then lead them to their final resting place – the "point of farewell" – at the bottom of an ocean.

    Most of the wishes involve going back and forth around the village to pick up various objects. Some will love this aspect, but if you'd like to get through the missions faster, there's thankfully also an option to turn on map markers that point us to the next objective. Other than that, the game doesn't provide much help, which means it takes a while to get the gist of how to properly navigate and use the UI.

    With each machine comes a unique backstory, a nostalgic memory, and a melancholic soundtrack specifically tailored to it. The game manages to perfectly complement this tense atmosphere with industrial-like pixel art and an impressive attention to detail.

    The primary downside is that the gameplay quickly feels like a walking simulator, although all this walking is, thankfully, made enticing by a great story.

    Farewell Planet sells for $3.99, with no ads or iAPs. Especially for players interested in a story about grief and acceptance, the game provides a wonderful and unique experience.

    Asking for Recommendations

    Posted: 12 Mar 2022 12:16 AM PST

    Hello. I just wanted to ask if anyone has any good recommendations on multiplayer survival games. My cousin and I decided to start playing together and we really like playing survival games. In the past, we played lifeafter, albion online, utopia origins, Minecraft and so on... Are there any other games that are a bit similar to these previous games but not as punishing? I am looking for some because atm I don't really have enough free time to grind so much in those types of games

    Does anyone remember a mobile game called color sheep?

    Posted: 11 Mar 2022 11:58 PM PST

    After wanting this game for YEARS. I finally bought it, and I LOVE the simplicity of it. For a 0.99$ it really holds up and I fell in love with it. My main question is, does anyone know how to turn the sheep into a color that wolves don't spawn in? I thought I did EVERY combination of colors but NOPE, I didn't get the achievement.

    Something similar to Skiing Yeti Mountain ? or just any simple one-button portrait games

    Posted: 11 Mar 2022 08:02 PM PST

    Skiing Yeti Mountain, basically a simple skiing game where you just put one finger there and guide the ski by dragging around. Last updated in 2016 sadly but still works on modern phones (at least on mine that have Android 12)

    looking for something like it

    Alto's Adventure and Odyssey are great but sadly they're landscape only.

    You play as an archer where you can fire arrows against attacking goblins. The levels get increasingly more difficult by increasing the number enemies and by the introducing more difficult enemy types.
