Sniper Fury Review

Sniper Fury Review

Sniper Fury Community Page Sniper Fury is a first-person shooter developed by mobile game developer Gameloft, while this game is similar to other games of it's kind. It stands out on it's own as a polished and fun equivalent. You play as a sniper, the camera is controlled by your left hand and you fire, zoom in and use power-ups with the right. The camera control can feel unresponsive at times whe...

Cargo King Review

Cargo King Review

Cargo King is a game with one simple mechanic and almost no flourish. While developers Happymagenta seem to have put some effort into making the art look clean and the gameplay smooth, they neglected to make the game anything more than a one-trick pony. Cargo King has you stack crates on top of one another, over and over again, tapping the screen when a crate hovers above the pile of already-stack...

(R)evolve Review

(R)evolve is a game where you need to nurture your planet’s plants by simply letting them grow over time. Also, you’ll have to protect them from the constant barrage of meteors that fly towards you from every angle. Like Super Hexagon, you rotate a small, circular object in the center of the screen by touching either the left half or the right half of the screen. You choose where your first plant ...

Tiny Dice Dungeon Review

Tiny Dice Dungeon Review

Kongregate’s new pixel-art mobile game, Tiny Dice Dungeon, is deeper than the 8-bit graphics would lead you to believe. Along with straightforward mechanics, the game offers you an in-depth menu system with the chance to evolve your dungeon-crawling into something altogether different and enjoyable. Then I hit the paywall. The game falls apart when you’re asked to pay for key items in the game tha...

Red Bull Racers android game

Red Bull Racers Review

Red Bull Racers Community Page Red Bull Racers harks back to the joy of Scalextric tracks as a kid. Scalextric all about driving cars round crazy, twisting circuits and getting the perfect balance between speed and stability, though watching the cars fly off the tracks was often one of the highlights. Red Bull Racers tries to tap into this with a very similar gameplay system, and it does it very w...

Line Of Defense Tactics Review

Line Of Defense Tactics Review

Line of Defense Tactics Community Page Line Of Defense Tactics reminds me a lot of X-COM: Enemy Unknown. The gameplay is very similar with a focus of real time tactics and strategic gameplay. It definitely lacks some of the depth that X-COM has, but this can mostly be forgiven as it is a mobile game after all. The average level has you leading your squad of super soldiers through a series of sci-f...
