"They don't make 'em like they used to!" is an expression that does not apply to Jeff Vogel and his development studio Spiderweb Software. He began making in-depth RPGs for desktop computers back in 1994, and has continued to do so for the past two decades while retaining the old … | Continue reading
I am really glad PC games like League of Legends don't have a /played command to see your cumulative play time, as mine would be... Horrifying. I play a ton of PC MOBA's, but really have yet to find one on mobile that has really grabbed my attention for very long. Titan Brawl is … | Continue reading
I feel like ever since Dungeon Raid [$0.99] entered my life then was left to wither on the vine I've been chasing the next best things in dungeon crawler-y puzzle games that have all sorts of different layers of RPG-ish depth to them. Thankfully, the rise of free to play on the A … | Continue reading
My quest to stay more or less on top of major gamebook releases has been pretty tricky of late thanks to the speed at which new ChoiceScript-based games have released both through Choice Of Games and Hosted Games.

When I reviewed the excellent Exploding Kittens [$1.99], I talked about how it's a blast of a game that was a couple of features away from being amazing (that was the actual review title).

There's a decent chance you've never heard of sepak takraw. I'm not very familiar with it, except one of my favorite videos by The Onion covered it, mocking American sports drama.

Dust: An Elysian Tail [$5.99] knocked off a lot of socks around here when it released on iOS last October. Originally an Xbox 360 release, Dust made its way to iOS in style.

Well this is one of the surprises I was talking about in our new games roundup earlier this morning. Foursaken Media's War Tortoise [Free] hit the App Store moments ago.

To be honest, I was expecting a Whispers of the Old Gods-centered Tavern Brawl, and instead we got a repeat of Encounter at the Crossroads, the Brawl that has you pick a class, gives you a completely-random deck, and throws you into the match.

There's loads of really cool flight simulators on the App Store, and Flight Unlimited 2K16 [Free] is easily on that list somewhere. Well, it got a big update today that added a bunch of different plans you can unlock via IAP, but the core game itself went free. If you, like me, r … | Continue reading
You'd have to be a pretty O.G. iOS gamer to remember Munch Time [$0.99], it's a three star puzzler released back in 2012 that's old enough to not only have a lite version, but also an HD version.
