Rovio are certainly keeping the Angry Birds license alive and active in the gaming world. We saw quite a bit of saturation with the original, physics based, model and we are seeing more branching out now. The Angry Birds group has gotten around alright, from downhill racing to Bust-A-Move style puzzlers to Clickomania style ones, […]

Review – Kill Shot Bravo on Android
December 11th, 2016 Carl Williams
We don’t cover a lot of war related games here on Gravis Ludus. Mainly because there are simply so many of them that it is often hard to keep track of what is what. One that stood out to me was Kill Shot Bravo by Hothead Games. While I try a lot of these style […]

Review – PinOut on Android
November 6th, 2016 Carl Williams
I am a closet pinball fan. I suck at the real thing, but digitally, I have been addicted since Midnight Magic on the Atari 2600. That is why I found it interesting that there is basically an endless pinball game called PinOut for Android. I knew I had to play it. Much like other addictive […]

Review – Knight’s Tour on Android
November 6th, 2016 Carl Williams
Puzzle games are a dime a dozen on mobile platforms. This is apparent by simply opening your favorite mobile game store – go ahead, try it. While there is a deluge of match 3 games that hope to capture 1/1,000th of the success of Bejeweled or Candy Crush Saga, there are a few unique puzzle […]

Review – Asphalt Xtreme
November 5th, 2016 Carl Williams
Gameloft have been quite prolific with their mobile gaming support. They are one of the most varied publishers out there too. Take Asphalt Xtreme for instance, this is not just another racing game as you will see from the video below. There was a lot of work put into this game, into the details and […]

Open World Role Playing Game The Quest Released for Android
November 2nd, 2016 Carl Williams
Okay, with the advent of mobile devices and their respective stores it is obvious some genres are simply lacking. While there are countless puzzle games, match 3 affairs and “can we stop with it already” endless runners populating iTunes and Google Play traditional games are harder to find. Some of us honestly prefer to play […]

Pokemon GO Introduces Daily Rewards
November 2nd, 2016 Carl Williams
Pokemon GO was, and still is in many places, a phenomenon that holds gamers attention. The notion of traversing the real world while playing a game is still somewhat new territory for both gamers and game publishers. That is why it is so interesting that Pokemon GO has held the attention of players this long. […]

New Psychological Horror Mobile Game, Sara is Missing, Available Now
October 30th, 2016 Carl Williams
Everyone knows about “found footage” horror movies such as the Blair Witch. That is a genre that goes back to the early days of video cameras being cheap enough for the average person to buy them. Sara is Missing brings that idea to the modern age in a “found cell phone” game that is genuinely […]

Review – Evil Dead – Endless Nightmare on Android
October 29th, 2016 Carl Williams
If you are a fan of classic horror movies, at least the cult ones, then you are probably aware of Evil Dead. Recently there was a remake released in the cinema world and with that, and modern marketing techniques, there is now a game to compliment the movie. If you are not a fan of […]

Review – Tap ‘n’ Slash Android Role Playing Game
October 26th, 2016 Carl Williams
Usually, I start reviews with a bit of the back story of the game but Tap ‘n’ Slash has no backstory. Take this in a good way- who remembers the backstory of, say, Doom? Who cared? Tap ‘n’ Slash is one of those types of games that doesn’t really need a backstory as everything is […]

Review – Fit in the Hole Android Game
October 26th, 2016 Carl Williams
I have to wonder if at least some inspiration for Fit in the Hole by Ketchapp was drawn from Fox’s short lived television show, Hole in the Wall. First, those who know me know I am not a fan of endless running games and that is essentially what Fit in the Hole is. What is unique […]

Review – 2048 Knight Android Game
October 23rd, 2016 Carl Williams
The land is over run with creatures and you must take up arms and defeat them before life as you know it is eradicated. That is pretty much the backstory for 2048 Knight. As you can tell from the name, this one is based on 2048, the popular number swiping game. The difference here is […]

Frozen Free Fall Icy Shot Review – Disney Meets Peggle
October 8th, 2016 Carl Williams
Disney is one of those companies that seems to not be able to do wrong. From movies to television shows to games and the related merchandise, Disney is viewed in quite a positive light. Even when pulling slightly more than inspiration from another game, such as oh um, Peggle, with Frozen Free Fall Icy Shot, […]

Stormblades Review- Android Quick Time Event Action Adventure
October 8th, 2016 Carl Williams
Remember those Quick Time Events from the God of War series? Stormblades is basically a whole game of them. This works quite well on mobile, touch screen, devices- much better than expected actually. While this is not the first time we have seen this type of game, Stormblades does it with a little more interesting […]

Six! Review, Physics Puzzle Tower Destruction Game on Android
October 5th, 2016 Carl Williams
Hmm, what is this? A puzzle game where you simply click the pieces below and they disappear causing things to fall. I think I could get into this, that is what I thought the first few minutes I played of Six! by Gram Games. After about half an hour of playing I was getting into […]
