Hey! What is this. Well, you would ask about the latest KRPG Chroisen 2 sequel to last game... HaHa!
If you've ever played a Korean RPG, and particularly the first Chroisen game, that opening sentence may well be familiar to you, in style if not content.
If you haven't, well, let it be a warning to you. Because Chroisen 2 includes all the usual foibles of the genre.

Battle Nations, the Silver Award-winning midcore strategy game, has been updated with a bunch of Team Fortress 2 characters to celebrate its launch on Steam.
You need to get to level ten in the game to unlock the new characters, but once you do you'll get have new units including the Heavy, Scout, Soldier, Pyro, and Demoman at your disposal.
There's also a new storyline that pits the Bui...
You managed to snag yourself a new iPhone 6 or iPhone 6 Plus at launch, did you? In that case, you're either incredibly committed or incredibly lucky. Those things are in serious demand.
In order to prevent the inevitable sense of deflation and possibly even regret that follows splurging some £700 on a gussied up mobile phone, we recommend distracting yourself with some pretty games.

The last Anomaly game is set to hit iOS and Android next week, and this time 11bit Studios is switching things around a little bit. Instead of the humans you're playing the aliens, and instead of the tanks you're playing the towers.
The game is called Anomaly Defenders and sees you taking control of the massive, multi-tentacled death machines that have plagued humanity throughout the series...
Metal. It isn't just a style of music and a group of elements any more. It's also a part of iOS 8 that speeds up the conversation between your A7 or A8 chip and the game you're trying to play.
To use lots of technical jargon babble, it makes games run much faster. Super duper faster if Apple's numbers are to be believed.
But which games use this new framework? Why the ones in the list below,...
The sequel to Beach Buggy Blitz is now upon us, and I am very excited indeed.
I loved the first game, and Vector Unit's other major series - Riptide GP - is a personal favourite from the App Store.
Over the next week I'll be putting the free to play racer through its paces and finding out whether or not that excitement is well placed.
Ready? Set? Go.

Battle for the Galaxy is a free to play tactical combat game recently launched on the App Store and Google Play.
Its sinister backstory will have you building what the game calls Corporations, mega empires with the soul purpose of - as you can guess - competing with other Corporations for key resources.
This competition between Corporations isn't exactly friendly, though.

Tokyo Game Show has kicked off to a great start with a strong mobile and handheld presence.
I won't lie - I did spend much of the day ogling goods from each developer's official TGS shop. Who needs money for food anyway, right?
Monster Hunters from around the world gathered on one side of the Capcom booth to get to grips with the latest incarnation of the popular series, Monster Hunt...
Down Among the Dead Men is an intriguing proposition.
It's an Inkle gamebook that was actually made before the success of Sorcery! and 80 Days. And you can almost see some of the ideas that shaped those two successful apps coming to fruition here.
It's not as open as 80 Days though, and there's a lack of interaction that takes Down Among the Dead Men much closer to the book-end of the gamebo...
Skater is a new skateboarding game for iOS in the style of Touchgrind Skate and True Skate.
You play as a pair of shoes on a skateboard and use a series of swipes and taps to perform tricks. It's far from easy.
Unlike arcade skateboarding games, Skater is more aligned with the finicky demands of the street sport in real life.
This mean you have to use your thumbs to hit the right parts of...
Firemonkeys has accidentally updated the Gold Award-winning Real Racing 3 in North America and Japan with online multiplayer and a couple of new cars.
Yep, as is written in this post, the update went live earlier than it was supposed to.
Firemonkeys recommends not updating the game if you're competing in the Speedrush TV Challenge as it will cause it to end early.
If you've already compl...
Beach Buggy Racing, the sequel to the Bronze Award-winning Beach Buggy Blitz, has been released for iOS and Android.
As with the first game, Beach Buggy Racing is a free to play off-road kart racer, however, it has much more content for you to steer yourself into.
Expect to be driving across volcanoes, beaches, and swamps this time around. Of course, you'll be collecting power-ups and throwi...
Happymagenta's next free to play twitchy action game is called Fist of Fury. It'll be out on September 23rd for iOS.
Fist of Fury is simple: you punch or you are punched. That's what the game is all about.
You stand in the middle of a four-way platform from which armed ninjas approach in every direction.
Ninjas move a square at a time towards you, and when one of them is a square away fro...
If you're a subscriber to the AppSpy channel on YouTube then you'll know that I've already been hands-on with the soft-launched version of Plunder Pirates.
I enjoyed the time I spent with it, and I especially appreciated the tip-top presentation that set it apart from other strategy management games that have flooded the App Store.
Now the game is out globally I've got a chance to revisit it...
Have you ever seen a "Jungle Moose"? It's a rotund hippopotamus wearing a helmet with moose antlers stuck on.
It's also the star of upcoming iOS and Android action game Jungle Moose. The game is both cute and terribly horrifying.
It starts with the Jungle Moose spotting a tasty apple on the other side of a river. Thinking with its stomach, the Moose jumps in and works its stubby legs into a ...
The Gold Award-winning World of Tanks Blitz is proof that free to play gaming doesn't have to be a dreadful or costly experience.
PocketGamer.biz caught up with World of Tanks Blitz producer Dmitry Yudo to talk about the game and its business model.

Point-and-click adventure games usually live and die by their story and characters.
Something has to keep you motivated while you rake every pixel of a screen for tiny visual cues, or jam peanut butter and matchsticks together in a vague hope it'll solve the puzzle you've been stuck on for two hours (spoiler: It usually does).
Fortunately, adventure games usually provide their cast with exce...
