Skullduggery! is all about collecting coins and possessions from dead people who haven't paid their taxes.
You're an undead bailiff, essentially.
In truth, it's spookily reminiscent of Angry Birds. Except, well, you're flinging a skull rather than a squawking bird.
You're also supposed to fling the skull multiple times to get across the levels, rather than just once. So, Skullduggery! is ...
Some games capture my heart so completely that I can't help but bug the developer about a mobile or handheld version.
Transhuman Design's Transmigration: Into Darkness Peering is one of those games.
Seriously, just take a look at its website and you'll see what I mean.
Transhuman Design took the virtual wrap off Transmigration: Into Darkness Peering earlier this week. It only took me a ma...
If you like playing piratical puzzles on your Android phone or tablet then I've got some good news for you. Mojo Bones's The Voyage has just dropped anchor on the Google Play Store.
The game, which is a sort-of follow up to The Curse, is essentially a series of fiendish puzzles wrapped around a story about rum doings among pirate folk.
At review we called the iOS version "an intriguing, ...
To an outsider, Magic: The Gathering is impenetrable. It's a complex collectible card game with fantasy visual stylings about battling the carefully constructed decks of opponents by summoning creatures to do your bidding and then working out, through a combination of mathematics and logic, whether you or your foe is victorious.
The game has been going for years, and, as with many of the geekie...
Another week, another Humble Bundle to speak about in glowing terms. I might even compare the price to an everyday object later in the story.
This time around it's the Humble Mobile Bundle 5 and it features three games for as little as a penny, or six if you're willing to pay above the average.
The three you can bag for the smallest price possible are a bit of a mixed bunch.
There's Silve...
Are you sick of having to drive closed wheel cars in Real Racing 3? Do you feel like it's an infringement of your basic human rights?
Well shut up, because the latest update for the Gold Award-winning driving sim lets you play open wheeler cars.
Specifically you can digitally jump into the Caterham Seven 620R, KTM X-Bow R, Ariel Atom 3.5, and Ariel Atom V8. All of which look a bit silly ...
Guild of Dungeoneering doesn't let you play as the hero. Nor are you the villain, like in Dungeon Keeper.
Instead, this is a game about laying out a safe path for the adventurer that enters the underground. It's a bit like Ernesto RPG, then.
You have to place each room, enemy, trap, and treasure for the hero to pass through. It's a bit like a puzzle game, then, in that you have to place each...
As I walked (well, jostled) my way around the show floor at this year's PAX East, I couldn't help but smile to myself.
You see, the last time I'd been to this convention was four years ago.
As I recall, mobile games were woefully under-represented. I can only remember seeing a handful of mobile titles, tucked away in a corner - presumably so they couldn't get their "casual" cooties on all th...
HeroCraft is in the process of porting its Silver Award-winning iOS fantasy strategy game King of Dragon Pass to Android, Windows Phone, and Vita.
HeroCraft made the announcement on the game's Twitter account, where the studio also revealed that the game should go live on those platforms in Q2 2014.
King of Dragon Pass started life as a PC game in 1999. It then came to iOS in 2011. It combin...
Here's some good news. Wayward Souls, Rocketcat Games's top-down, super tough dungeon crawling adventure is set to hit the App Store on April 24th. That means we've got just over a week to wait for it.
And Noodlecake Games has revealed on Twitter it's working on the Android port of the game, so hopefully Google gamers won't have too long to wait to get their hands on the action RPG either.
...
Foursaken Media has ported Bronze Award-winning creature-grabbing dungeon delver Monster Adventures to Android, meaning Google gamers can get their hands on the mash-up of RPG styles.
We quite liked the iOS version when we reviewed it, saying "if you're after an action-RPG with element-based creatures, and don't mind some uninspired visuals and a whole lot of grind, then Monster Adventures ...
Kemco JRPG. Spiky hair. Angsty protagonist. Terrible evil threatening the world.
Oh, wait a minute, this one looks a bit like Pokémon? And one of the monsters is a podgy dog with a massive face?
And there's a monster that's a tank even though that doesn't make any sense? Okay, I'm on board.
Band of Monsters is the latest JRPG from the publisher, and it takes its cues from the same 90's 16...
When Instantion gets things right it gets them shockingly right. Some of its puzzles bounce through logical loops so brilliantly it's hard not to get pulled along by them.
But sometimes it's too esoteric, mumbling when it should shout, stumbling just when you think it's found its stride.
It looks good, it sounds good, and there's a sturdiness to the platforming world it builds that means you...
It's tough to improve on a simple game like Hopeless: The Dark Cave, but developer Upopa Games is hoping that it's managed to do just that by blasting its adorable blobs into the darkest reaches of space.
The end result is Hopeless: Space Shooting, a sequel to the Bronze Award-winning Hopeless: The Dark Cave that retains the basic premise of the original survival horror shooter but adds some we...
There's a whole lot of care and attention to detail in Wind-up Knight 2. From the social media parody to the top-flight presentation and the finely crafted levels, everything about this release demonstrates the love that developer Robot Invader clearly has for the world it has created.
However, that love comes at a high price. While the initial download is free, the IAP for the full game costs ...
Salvaged is a multi-screen combination of first-person shooter and squad-based RTS that, previously, piqued our curiosity.
Now, developer Opposable Games has taken to Kickstarter in order to find $125,000 to bring Salvaged to a more impressive form.
"In Salvaged we want to make people feel like they part of this amazing, responsive sci-fi universe," design director James Parker told us....
After reaching 20 million sales of Minecraft: Pocket Edition, Mojang has decided to livestream a panel to answer your questions.
Jens "Jeb" Bergensten, Owen Hill, and Johan Bernhardsson from Mojang are the ones answering the questions.
If you want to submit your own question then you can do so in this Reddit thread. But you'll want to be quick as the panel is happening right now.
Oh, and...
Pixel Noir is a game that we've already glued our eyeballs to, due to its mix of pixel art, cyberpunk streets, raincoats, and smoky bars.
Now it's up on Kickstarter, where SWDTech is asking for $97,000 in order to bring it to iOS, Android, Vita, PC, and PS4.
"Something happened that night in the hospital - something that cost you your career as a police detective, your sanity and your p...
Amazon recently made its long-anticipated play for your living room entertainment space with the Amazon Fire TV. And part of the online retail giant's plan involves games.
While playing games on your TV using a dedicated control pad (which is optional) makes the Fire TV sound like a home console, Amazon has actually built this new piece of kit on the foundations of mobile gaming.
Amazon has ...
Ossian Studios needs you, Android gamers. Yes, YOU, so listen up.
The Silver Award-winning The Shadow Sun is an RPG that we waited a long time to arrive on iOS. Luckily, we weren't disappointed.
But The Shadow Sun still isn't on Android. However, that's soon about to change, and with your help, it could be on Google Play in no time.
Ossian is looking for Android players to sign-up for the...
