Do you have a penchant for pattern detection? How fast is your reaction time?
Tap Two, a new Android game free on the Google Play Store, puts both these skills to the test in quick, 60-second rounds played live against others.
The game holds continuous races, the same for all players at once, giving you and others exactly one minute to match pairs of letters, numbers, and symbols in colored ...
Master of Craft plays a song of appreciation for the cowards - er, merchants - that forge and sell weapons rather than get directly tangled up in wars themselves.
The game's combination of town-building, monster-fighting, and selling is not unheard of - fans of RPGs were given the chance to open a shop and sell wares at least as far back as Dragon Quest IV for the NES.
But games that revolve...
Monster and Monster has told us that its free to play oceanic explore-'em-up Deep Loot will be swimming onto iOS on July 31st.
It's all about diving down into the sea, dodging deadly creatures, and looting treasures. The cash you make lets you buy bigger boats and better equipment so you can swim further next time.
As you swim, the ocean is procedurally generated so it's unique at every str...
The first half of Broken Sword 5 was a disappointment.
For one it was missing the action, adventure, and globetrotting antics of a Broken Sword game. Instead we got a tepid murder mystery and a not-so thrilling case of insurance fraud.
This second episode certainly points us in the right direction on that count. We get conspiracies and curses. We get religious intrigue and crazy zealots. We ...
More than just punny, Enterchained happens to be a unique gladiatorial combat game with enough comedic trip-ups to match its bloody arena brawling.
Due for iOS and Android "in a matter of weeks", Enterchained will have you controlling two gladiators at once as they're attached to each other by a large chain.
Rather than getting in a tangle, you should aim to be resourceful, using the interli...
For those dismayed that Firefly Online hasn't yet arrived on iOS and Android, some good news has just flew in.
It was revealed at the San Diego Comic Con this year that the original cast from Joss Whedon's original Firefly TV series will reprise their roles in the game.
There's a new trailer for the online strategic RPG that has some of the cast (including Nathan Fillion) detailing what the...
I just hugged a snowman. Not in real life though. I wish I had, because Develop is like a sauna. A sauna full of games and lanyards and monetisation strategies.
A Good Snowman Is Hard To Build is a sweet third person puzzler that sees you poking a little black creature around snow-strewn levels. Each of these levels is split into smaller gardens, and each of these gardens contains a selection o...
Over at Comic Con in San Diego, Telltale Games has confirmed that there will be a third season of The Walking Dead. Which isn't really that much of a surprise, but it's nice to know all the same.
The penultimate episode of the second series hit the App Store last week. It's called Amid the Ruins, and we gave it a Silver Award when we reviewed it.
There are major spoilers in our write-up ...
The King of Fighters '98 was a celebration of the series to-date - a "best of" - collecting all of the finest fighters from the franchise, alive or dead, and pitting them against one another in non-canonical three-on-three matches. And it was brilliant.
And even though in the last 16 years fighting games have begun to offer more sophisticated experiences to seasoned players, and more welcoming ...

Secret Chambers are some of the hardest things to find in Traps n' Gemstones.
Which is probably why we've only managed to find four, so far. If you find a chamber please share your discovery in the comments section below.
They often involve finding hidden tunnels, which only open up when you hug up against the wall. Here's what we have so far…
In this room, stand on the blue platfor...
Keys are an incredibly important commodity in Traps n' Gemstones. Without them, those relics would stay lost forever.
That's because each relic is locked inside a treasure chest, and you need a key to liberate each and every one of them. So, with 25 treasure chests in the game, that's 25 keys to find.
This guide will show you exactly how to get them. If you don't yet have access to one of th...

Secret signs are a completely optional item to collect in finishing Traps n' Gemstones. But you can't get 100 percent completion without finding all 50.
In this guide, we'll tell you how to find them all. Sadly, there's no record of which ones you have and haven't got, so you'll have to track down each one and see if you ...

Donut Games's cute and charming Metroidvania Traps n' Gemstones is a hard game to write a walkthrough for.
It's so open-ended and nonlinear. You can complete the game in pretty much any way you see fit, collecting the relics (and the keys you need to open the treasure chests) in whatever order you like.
But, there are some key things you need to do, and some important areas you need to unloc...
Just when you think the games industry couldn't get teresting, another truckload of news comes along and blows that theory right out of the water.
This week free-to-pay gaming was once again the talk of the town, with some suggesting that the negative attidute towards the model is forcing developers away from mobile, while Apple was forced to defend its free-to-play regulatiions in an att...
Majestic Nights is a recently announced, episodic role-playing game set in the neon-tinged 1980s. You play both Cardholder, an intelligence agent, and Cal, a private investigator, in an isometric adventure set against a sinister political backdrop of cover-ups and conspiracies.
While gameplay is ambiguous so far, hinting only at "isometric RPG gameplay," "fast, light mechanics," and some...
