Sea of Conquest: Pirate War launches worldwide after a hugely successful soft launch
After a highly successful soft launch that racked up a staggering 100 million downloads, Funplus has released its highly anticipated strategy game Sea of Conquest: Pirate War. This mobile release will be followed by a PC one later this month, but that takes away a lot of freedom being stuck to a desk, and how un-piratey is that? What makes this number even more impressive is that the soft launch was only in a select few territories, which speaks volumes by itself. Following a story created by AAA writers and full of adventure, and more importantly treasure, now the whole world can hit the high seas together and rule the waves. Sea of Conquest: Pirate War mixes base management with some thr…
The Witcher - Versus For iPhone
I'm a bit of a fan of The Witcher by Polish author Andrzej Sapkowski and despite being an early adopter of the PC RPG for the franchise (which was riddled with issues for the international version), my fandom held true. So of course the news of a sequel just being announced caused me some joy. What does this have to do with the iPhone? Well the game is getting a cross-platform release and that's right... the App Store will be getting its slice of the franchise. The Witcher: Versus will be tied to a browser-based version of the game, which means you can waste your time while you waste your time (insert Xzibit macro here). More details are to come, but it's looking really good and that's n…
Gangstar Rio: City of Saints Review
It hardly bears pointing out that the Gangstar series from Gameloft has taken its inspiration from Rockstar's GTA series, but where previous incarnations of Gangstar were happy to simply ape older generations of GTA, the latest version takes a swing at something entirely new. Unfortunately it's a swing and a miss as no matter how you look at it, Gangstar Rio: City of Saints fails to excite and inspire the same sort of sandbox fun it attempts to emulate. The problems are evident early…

challengeBrand new Plunder Pirates video puts the 'pee' into 'F2P'
Midoki's put out a brand new animation for its free-to-play strategy management game Plunder Pirates. It's a typically tongue-in-cheek video, and though it's totally safe for work, it's definitely a bit cheeky. Got an iOS device and fancy playing the game yourself? Get it from the links under the video, and urine. [App Store link]…
AVP: Evolution Review
With the Alien franchise in a bit of a slump thanks to the dramatic failure of the recently released 'Colonial Marines' it was a warm comfort to know that the new Alien vs. Predator title 'Evolution' was in the safe hands of Angry Mob Games, the boffins behind the brutally fun Predators for the App Store. However, instead of a violent love letter to the sci-fi universe's deadliest hunters, players are handed a basic revenge plot where they'll have to fight to survive and defeat the Su…

Conquer the Frosthald in fantasy boardgame UHR-Warlord on iPad
Turn-based boardgame UHR-Warlords is out now in iPad. Set against a fantasy backdrop, the game takes place on a grid housing two warring armies. Assuming command of one of these armies, it's up to you to manoeuvre your forces into advantageous positions, and then unleash steely hell upon your foes. You can enlist a variety of warriors to wage your battles for you. There are sword swinging warriors, spell-casting mages, and stealthy assassins waiting to do your bidding. More creatures can be summoned using Uhrkraft, UHR-Warlords's active resource. In fact, all movements, spells, and actions are dependant on this regenerating currency. As you can see from the trailer above, the game's 3D…
4 more reasons to indulge in Shadowblood’s Dark Fantasy RPG experience
If the sheer technical prowess of UTPlus Interactive’s mobile action RPG wasn’t enough to draw you into the world of Narr the first time around, those that like a little more depth with regards to their hacking, slashing, and near-endless looting can rest comfortably knowing that Shadowblood isn’t just a pretty face. Renowned amongst fans for its unique approach to control optimisation, the game lets you traverse lands and destroy dragons in a totally tailorable manner unseen in most ARPGs. But this only scratches the surface of the Shadowblood experience. So, to make things slightly clearer, we’ve highlighted some other reasons why players might be interested in a…
Hidden Gem of the Week: Dungeon of the Endless
Dungeon of the Endless starts out pretty badly for your team of bounty hunters, assassins, and criminals, as their prison transport vessel is destroyed by the mysterious alien force known as the Endless and the survivors find themselves in the subterranean corridors of an Endless complex. Otherworldly horrors lurk in the dark rooms and halls, waiting to attack your heroes in overwhelming waves. The exit is twelve floors up. Amplitude Studios' tower defense strategy roguelike is a desperatr and tense journey to the surface so far above. Each floor is a procedurally-generated maze, through which you guide your team room-by-room, preparing for whether you find much-needed resources, a mercha…
Square Enix showcases a new trailer for Just Cause Mobile, a Space Invaders AR game, and a new Hitman Sniper spin-off
Last night, Square Enix held a presentation to show off some of its upcoming games coming to all platforms. Among the reveals were several games which are coming to mobile over the course of this year. A new trailer for Just Cause: Mobile has dropped. It doesn’t show any gameplay, but it features some characters who will appear in the game like Annika, Teo and of course, Rico Rodriguez. The most important thing about this trailer is showing the game will deliver the same action-packed experience that you expect from the main entries to the series on consoles and PC. Meanwhile, Square Enix also showed off a Space Invaders AR game where you must protect the world from invading aliens…
Game of Dice has received a pirate-themed update
Game of Dice has just been updated with a ton of new content and features themed on pirates. The aptly-named Pirate Attack update includes a new event map themed on a pirate ship which changes the toll system so it matches up with the nature of pirates. There's also a bunch of new island spots like Treasure Island which trigger special skills when you land on them. If you were hankering for a new character, this update won't let you down. There's a lady pirate who specialises in Vacation Spot Tolls waiting to be played. You'll also find four new themed skill cards (one of which is craftable) and a new dice - the Monkey Dice - which specialises in Vacation Spots and Toll Increases. Ple…

DomiNations is a highly detailed looking strategy game coming to iOS and Android next year
There's a new trailer doing the rounds for the first title to come out of Big Huge Games and Nexon's recent partnership - DomiNations. I'm in two minds about it. On the one hand there's a danger that it could turn out to be just another strategy management game in the mould of Clash of Clans or Tiny Realms or Plunder Pirates. In which case that's fine, but there's not an awful lot to get excited about. While on the other hand, the sheer scope and size of DomiNations' planned gameplay is really quite impressive, suggesting an unprecedented level of detail, and countless upgrade paths. The game plonks you in control of a nation in the Stone Age, and it's your job to take them into the…
Magic Orbz Review
Let's get this out the way. Magic Orbz is Arkanoid with lush 3D visuals and some very fun power ups. The only thing magic about the orbs in question is the amount of destruction they do, and as usual with this type of game, why they never travel where you want them to. Now don't get the wrong idea right off the bat, this game is not being maligned. We're just explaining the experience in its simplest terms before we explore further... so let's do that now. Now if you're watching our v…

Galactic Phantasy Review
When you first look at a game like Galaxy Pirate Adventure by Sunfish Studio Limited, it's hard not to be misled and think you're in for a Privateer-like experience set in a pirate-infested universe. The first hint is in the game's description as it clearly calls itself a 'full 3D RPG', which is literally exactly what it is. You play as the Prince of Pirates, however you've been cast out in to the 'waters' by your father (the 'King' of Pirates if you're wondering) to adventure and gro…
