Children of Morta review

+ Universal App - Designed for iPhone and iPad
By Campbell Bird on October 24th, 2024
Our rating: starstarstarhalfstarblankstar :: BERGSONS AND BUGS
It is a testament to the quality of this dungeon crawler that it stays compelling within the confines of this poor mobile port.

Unforeseen Incidents Mobile review

+ Universal App - Designed for iPhone and iPad
By Campbell Bird on September 27th, 2024
Our rating: starstarstarstarblankstar :: HANDYMAN HERO
This adventure game isn’t able to fully avoid classic adventure game pitfalls but it also has quite a bit to say.

Our rating: starstarstarstarhalfstar :: HAND IN HAND
Balatro is a weird game and so I wrote a weird review of it.

By Campbell Bird on August 9th, 2024
Our rating: starstarstarhalfstarblankstar :: FEELS MORE FRIGHTENING
Another mid-tier Resident Evil game has hit the App Store, but at least this one feels more inspired.

Hoyoverse’s new action rpg continues to serve up the same brand of approachable gacha gaming in a more self-contained and stylish package.

GUNCHO review

By Campbell Bird on June 26th, 2024

This roguelike from Arnold Rauers is solid, but not as special as his previous releases.

Warbits Plus review

By Campbell Bird on May 24th, 2024
Our rating: starstarstarhalfstarblankstar :: MORE WAR
This remade tactics game has a lot to offer, but its charm can wear thin before you’re done with it.


Project Mugen gets kicked back into the limelight as NetEase reveals a new name change

Posted by Shaun Walton on December 2nd, 2024

There are a couple of big names in the mobile sphere that when you hear them mentioned, you immediately perk an ear to learn more. One such situation was back at Gamescom 2023 when NetEase Games burst onto the stage and showed off a mind-blowing trailer for the frustratingly vague titled Project Mugen.

Now, finally, we have received some further news that puts a rocket under this whole situation, along with a new name; Ananta. The reveal came in the form of a trailer, showing a character struggling to come up with a new codename for the title as the city falls apart in the background.

Go penguin-wild as Play Together releases its latest seasonal update

Posted by Shaun Walton on November 29th, 2024

If the freezing temperature, frozen cars, and permanent shivering haven’t tipped you off; we are suffering through winter, and the last place any of us want to be is the beach. If you think you do, you are wrong. That is exactly where Play Together is sending you, though, in its latest seasonal update.

Suddenly one day on Kai Island, an iceberg drifted up to the beach, complete with a few stowaways. Fiona and her friends unwittingly arrived from Antarctica, and would very much like your help to get back. Do so by taking on a host of missions and you will earn items including the amazing-sounding Waddling Penguin Suit.

PUBG Mobile reveals upcoming collaboration with luggage providers American Tourister because... what?

Posted by Shaun Walton on November 28th, 2024

There are many reasons to enjoy a good video game collaboration; from seeing your favourite characters in other media to maybe getting a funky new piece of branded kit. One of the best things about collaboration for me however is finding the weirdest ones and trying to connect the dots. I can’t do that with PUBG Mobiles' latest announcement.

PUBG Mobile, a game in which the most travelling you do is walking halfway across a map before someone blows your head off, is teaming up with American Tourister, the travel luggage company. They will be releasing a few new-inspired items under their ROLLIO collection.

Days of Music returns to serenede 2024 in Sky: Children of the Light

Posted by Shaun Walton on November 27th, 2024

We all have our favourite pairings, but a universal one must be the combination of video games and music. A good score can elevate a good game to a great one, and Sky: Children of the Light is celebrating the audible miracle with the Days of Music event lasting until December 8th.

Fans of the series can head over to the Aviary Village and Homem and speak to the event guide. You will then be transported to the daily performance location where you can pick up a nearby instrument and compose and record your own scene. You could also listen to other players' creations through Share Memories, and even give them a round of applause should they deserve it.

Claim the power of Grayskull for your own as legendary series crosses over with RAID: Shadow Legends

Posted by Shaun Walton on November 26th, 2024

I may be doing the series a disservice, but I feel that more people know He-Man and the Masters of the Universe from that one song meme. It is that, but it is also a hugely popular franchise and one that has entered Plariums’ dark fantasy world of RAID: Shadow Legends.

It seems like a rather fitting team-up thematically, and until January 8th you can add some of these iconic characters to your squad. Start logging in today to unlock Skeletor, the Lord of Destruction, through a 14-day loyalty program. You need to sign in for 7 days before December 25th, so act fast.

Grimguard Tactics unveils first major update, introducing a new hero class and trinkets

Posted by Shaun Walton on November 25th, 2024

Since launching last month, Grimguard Tactics has been quietly going about its business, and if you glance at the Google Play and App Store reviews, it's smashing it. Now, however, it is time to lift the lid on the game's first major update, heading to a phone near you on November 28th.

This inaugural update quickly brings a few new features to Outerdawn’s dark fantasy tactical RPG, in the shape of a new hero class, trinkets, event, dungeon, and more. If this is a sign of things to come then Grimguard players are going to be well looked after. But without further ado, it's time to unpack.

Tower of God: New World announces a collab with Teenahe Mercenary complete with four powerful recruits

Posted by Shaun Walton on November 22nd, 2024

Netmarble has announced a new collaboration between the collectible card game RPG Tower of God: New World and the WEBTOON series Teenage Mercenary. Four characters from the webcomic will make their way over to be recruited, and there will also be a multitude of events to play through for big rewards.

Our first hero is the comics’ protagonist; SSR+ [Teenage Mercenary] Ijin Yu. This Red Element Warrior is a swift assassin who has the ability to make their targets bleed for lasting damage. SSR [Numbers] 003 is another Red element, but a support that can deal damage to multiple enemies. These two are available to recruit now.


SSR+ [Forest] Alice is again a Red Element, an assassin who specialises in taking out the enemy from the back row for a little padding of safety. Finally, SSR [Numbers] 002 is, you guessed it, a Red Element, but one equipped with napalm rounds to deal AOE damage. Who needs tact when you have explosives? If you want to hire these two characters, you will need to wait until December 4th.

After putting a new red team together with these soldiers, head over to the Collab story Event; The Dark Underbelly of Video Games. Clearing these quests will net you up to 30 Collab Tickets, and you will also pick up special event items to exchange for some neat rewards.

For those looking to recruit characters in an easy, non-Gacha way, you are covered here. The Daily Festival Part 1 will assign you daily missions to complete. Doing so will earn you a further 150 Collab Tickets, as well as SSR+ [Teenage Mercenary] Ijin Yu. On top of this, simply logging in during the event period will reward you with SSR [Numbers] 003. For the other two you will need to throw tickets at the Collab Summon banner.

Download Tower of God: New World from the App Store and Google Play now.

Digital Extremes releases prequel webcomic to get us pumped for Warframe: 1999

Posted by Shaun Walton on November 21st, 2024

Do you like to read stories but are tired of all those bloody words getting in the way? If so, you probably aren’t reading this. I didn’t think that through... But moving on! Digital Extremes has released its much anticipated, by me, free prequel webcomic for Warframe: 1999.

What we already know about 1999 is that it features a group of six individuals that make up The Hex Syndicate. They each have a Protoframe, combat the Techrot, and have a complicated relationship with boy bands. But, how did they end up this way, and what unites them?

Solo Leveling: Arise introduces pre-registration for upcoming raid based on popular anime arc

Posted by Shaun Walton on November 20th, 2024

Since launching earlier this year, Solo Leveling: Arise has been quite busy with events, commemorating two age milestones and introducing a few new characters. With the impending release of the Jeju Island Raid, the content train is primed to keep rolling, and you can get some extra goodies for pre-registering.

Whilst we are all used to pre-registration rewards for the launch of a game, I have seen them popping up for updates or content more and more. It is quite odd and I don’t think I will ever understand it, but I do understand free rewards!

The 2024 PUBG Mobile Global Championship Group Stages conclude as we prepare for the crucible of the Survival Stage

Posted by Shaun Walton on November 19th, 2024

We have seen the Group Stages of the PUBG Mobile Global Championship conclude recently, after three weeks of dizzying highs, devastating lows, and other such emotions. Capping off the stage with Brute Force, topping Group Green with 187 points, comprised of three wins and an impressive 110 eliminations.

Alongside this team are Influence Rage and ThunderTalk Gaming who also topped Group Green. They will join the winners of Groups Yellow and Red, consisting of the likes of 2024 PUBG Mobile World Cup winners Alpha 7 Esports, 2021 PMGC victors NAVI, and 2024 PEL Fall champions Tong Jia Bao Esports.

Jujutsu Kaisen Phantom Parade hits a double whammy with eight-million-player celebration and a new SSR-character

Posted by Shaun Walton on November 18th, 2024

There are many ways to justify success when it comes to gaming; reviews, units sold, revenue and the like. I would also accept smashing eight million global players since releasing around a week ago, a feat that Jujutsu Kaisen Phantom Parade has achieved. To celebrate, you can claim a huge mountain of free gifts.

First, and arguably more important depending on how greedy you are, Mugumi Fushiguro's Original Story Event is now live, where Shadows Fall will focus on the aforementioned characters, as they journey to a village compounded by strange occurrences, with villagers disappearing with no explanation.

Version 1.4 of Wuthering Waves launches with a revamp of an old game mode

Posted by Shaun Walton on November 15th, 2024

Kuro Games has released Version 1.4 of Wuthering Waves, bringing with it a host of additions. When the Night Knocks introduces a fantastically powerful five-star Resonator complete with a companion story, as well as a new take on the Somnoire: Illusive Realms mode.

Version 1.4 brings forth the Somnium Labyrinth, a roguelike adventure set in a dream, where a train derailment opens a gateway to a realm of illusions. Inside a figure entreats you forward, warning of a potential calamity should this nightmare spill out.

TiMi Studio Group is taking the reigns in the iconic series with Monster Hunter Outlanders

Posted by Shaun Walton on November 14th, 2024

If you wanted to play Monster Hunter on your mobile then you have a few choices; Stories for some turn-based fun, Puzzles for, well take a guess, and NOW if you need a reason to walk. We all need a nudge. But what about the true Monster Hunter experience? Enter, Monster Hunter Outlanders.

Since 2004 the Monster Hunter series has been setting the standard for giant monster co-op hunting, so much so that everything in the genre after it will always be compared. A high honour few games attain. You of course can enjoy the experience on a Switch, but soon we have the full experience in a truly portable way. Try to comfortably fit a Switch in your pocket, it can’t be done.

GoGo Muffin launches its second closed beta test ahead of launch early next month

Posted by Shaun Walton on November 13th, 2024

After making a name for itself in Hong Kong and Taiwan, and then again with its first beta last month, GoGo Muffin is building up a lot of momentum ahead of its release on December 3rd. But first, there will be a week of a second beta test, and anyone can get involved and try out this cosy MMORPG.

For those who would like to try out this second beta test, you have until November 22nd to get involved. You can try your hand at it on iOS and Android, so make sure you don’t miss out.

One very important note is that any purchases will be transferred to the same account after release, with additional rewards. It is quite the clever approach to be fair, encouraging spending to generate funds to put into development, hats off to XD for that move. Your progress however will be reset, so try not to get too attached.

If you enjoy the beta test then you might consider pre-registering, even more so as you can grab some free gifts. Thanks to those already signed up, everyone who does will at least get 400 Stellarite from the first two milestones, as well as an Exclusive Melomon.

The next three targets will result in ten Star Verses, a piece of exclusive headgear, and an exclusive back decor. It would be lovely if I could tell you the actual number of people who have pre-registered and what each checkpoint needs, but they don’t seem to be giving that information out. I am sure there is a reasonable explanation, but maybe they aren’t confident in the game? Just saying.

Go Go Muffin is available to pre-order from the App Store and Google Play, you could be joining 200,000 people or 2, we just don’t know.

Explore Motori Mountain and learn about the soul mages in Guardian Tales latest update

Posted by Shaun Walton on November 12th, 2024

Kakao Games has announced the unveiling of a huge new area in its action RPG Guardian Tales. World 20: Motori Mountain will not only give you somewhere new to explore, but you can also recruit a valuable ally, and take part in a host of events stuffed with some very helpful items.

World 20 will bring you to the mysterious Motori Mountain, the home of an ancient order of soul mages. Here you will meet a new character Dohwa, the heir of a soul mage family. Together you will investigate a series of secrets long kept buried, and perhaps shed some light on this unusual place.
