We cover plenty of new games here at Gamezebo every week, but the number of games we've already covered that show up on new platforms? It's staggering. This Wednesday and every Wednesday, Gamezebo is rounding up the games that aren't quite new, but might be new to you depending on your platform of choice. And who doesn't love new(ish) games? |
Apple's App Store is no stranger to drag racing games, perhaps owing to the very simplicity of their design, and thus you could be forgiven for approaching Racing Rivals with a heavy dose of skepticism. And yet, for the most part, it's unwarranted. Cie Games and Nitto Tire have given us a game that's as fun as it is visually appealing, and the inclusion of an enjoyable multiplayer component allows it to surge ahead of many of its rivals. |
What would an Apple press event be without a great big game announce to support their latest hardware? The iPhone 5C and 5S announcements are underway right now (read the full reveal on Gamezebo shortly!), and as part of the festivities, Donald Mustard of ChAIR entertainment took to the stage to reveal "the epic conclusion of the Infinity Blade trilogy." |
Even if you're the happiest person in the world, there's no avoiding the fact that some days will always be better than others. And on some of those off days, haven't you ever thought of just throwing yourself down a hill and letting your body squash every physical thing that happened to be getting on your nerves? I wouldn't recommend it: I tried that once and just wound up bumping my head against my mailbox. Luckily, Giant Boulder of Death from Adult Swim Games makes this feat a whole lot more rewarding (not to mention safer for your head), as you guide a deadly boulder down an unsuspecting hill just for the sake of destruction. |
Like Janet Van Dyne or Ray Palmer, Zynga has been shrinking furiously as of late. But amid office closings and layoffs, the company did snag Spooky Cool Labs during the summer. Even as Zynga has backed away from pursuing real money gaming, its new acquisition has been working on Hit It Rich! Casino Slots for Facebook. So naturally, the result is an online slots experience good enough that people would probably play it for real money. Ironic, no? |
Word games are fun and educational, but they can also be a bit stuffy and predictable. But word fights--ah, that's something else entirely. Wordly by Scopely is a fast-paced, highly competitive word-based puzzle title that's more akin to tug-of-war than . And if you don't feel like beating your chest in your friends' general direction, you can have a go at Shakespeare, Mark Twain, or the Wolfman. |
We'd imagine that gamers accustomed to the increasing quality of this console generation attempting to play toned-down iOS versions of today's most popular games might feel a bit like PC gamers back when the paradigm shifted and television play became more commonplace. It's hard to blame them, as far too often in this industry there are publishers attempting to cash in on the popularity of a franchise by throwing together a ramshackle version of a game and tossing it onto the App Store with little regard to quality or experience. It's sad alright, but the tide may very well be turning thanks to the efforts of--deep breath here--mega-publisher Activision and the release of Call of Duty: Strike Team. |
