Mobile Gaming (iOS/Android/Other) - The Bear and Badger

Ok! Recommendations, inevitable links to toucharcade articles, links to App Store deals, discussion, all found here.

This week, I 'ave been mostly playing...

Logo Quiz Game.

Fuck my life. I can't help it.

Ok now you do better.

New Star Soccer still taking up significant amounts of my time, even though I've won everything and bought every property and vehicle.

It's hard to stop after just a few games, I seem to end up playing half a season.

Plenty of flaws with it still, lack of a Champions League variant is disappointing. Hopefully updates add even more to it.

afgavinstan

Ooh. Tell me, will I have to make any In-App Purchases to really get something out of it?

LarryDavid

Career mode, 69p.

After that it's just optional stuff like weather packs (barely worth it to be honest) and in game currency (again, don't bother).

Most people have already played/got it but the original Infinity Blade is only 69p just now. It's well worth that

Spider HD is cheap at the moment too. I recently got an iPad but seem to spend more time on Draw Something than anything else.

Jetpack Joyride is still my iOS game of choice.

Thanks for that, might get it even though I have it on iPhone. I like it.

Waking Mars is down to Â£1.99. Bought!

I get occasional emails from the developer from of when I signed up with the PC version, Got one yesterday saying an update is coming soon with World Cup and Champions League.

CL & WC = Woof!

Was pure crack addiction for the first 4 days then it all gets a bit repetitive - can't wait for an update though.

I'm on the last set if logos. Missed quite a few on the way. Namely all the fucking skiiing and snowboarding related ones. What's up with that shit?! Oh. And some of the American fag ones.

Ski Safari.

WorKid

I got some zombie choose-your-own-adventure game last night. It was free, might still be, it's worth an hour of your life. Can't remember the name.

I'm so helpful.

I'm playing logos and nss.

Recommended nss to colleagues last week. "champman + sensi" I said. Seems they like it too :)

Scored a 51.6 the other day. Also my first game with 4 or 5 goals. Will post a pic tomorrow.

I love nss. Got all Cheevos apart from 20 man o match in a season and one other.

WorKid

NSS stats. All achievements, goal - 52.3, pass - 38.7. 393 goals in 440 appearances.

Cisse, eat your heart out.

mk64

Was that 2nd play through?

LarryDavid

It'd be nice to have a trophy room you can see what you've won in your career. Also it seems like you can carry on playing in your 50's which is a bit unrealistic.

Hopefully the update will add some more life to it, International football sounds good and maybe some more lifestyle options. Bought everything I possibly could ages ago so that side of the game died out quite quickly for me.

I think 67 goals in a season was my record.

mk64

That's some epic stats. Will post mine tomorrow. So far I think I have the longest pass. A replay or save goal feature would be nice. More stuff to buy. More tactics. Basically everything which is in the sequels for pc :) the transfer system is weird too. I'm playing out of my skin for Barca and then I'm getting sold to a 2n division French team....

WorKid

First play through. I did play a season for Lille though, where I sucked. They hated me over there.

mk64

ok, career stats..

and best game stats;

optimark_prime

Sorry, which game is this? Please.

mk64

NSS, new star soccer, Championship manager meets sensible soccer.

optimark_prime

Cool, thank you.

I was tempted to get that this morning.

Looks a lot like Tiny Wings.

I bought Spellsword the other day, it's pretty similar to Super Crate Boy or Muffin Knight but different at the same time, nice retro 8 Bit styling and very addictive even when you can't clear a mission.

FranticPea

I'm now hopelessly addicted to New Star Soccer. Thanks for that...

optimark_prime

Me too!

WorKid

It wears off, don't worry.

GurtTractor

Super Stickman Golf is really quite good, loads of courses (pretty well-designed, many are really evil), sharp physics, powerups, and up to 4 player multiplayer (online and local). The multiplayer is pretty crazy, it's everyone playing at once, first person to sink the ball wins. My gamecentre id is Aphex Tractor if you want to play.

Wariospeedwagon

Currently playing an old fashioned rpg, Avadon, by spiderweb software.

Have only put in half an hour but it seems to work fine with a touch screen interface, bodes well for the baldurs gate ports due later this year.

Quite expensive at 10 Australian dollars, can't speak for the quality just yet but looks promising.

Howdy, Stranger!
