Hands-on with SMiniz: A match-3 puzzler that understands K-pop fandom

Hands-on with SMiniz: A match-3 puzzler that understands K-pop fandomWhen another match-3 game lands on your phone, it’s easy to assume you already know exactly what you’re getting. It’s always bright tiles, limited moves, combo pieces, and escalating level goals. That’s always been one of mobile gaming’s most reliable formulas. Well, SMiniz doesn’t try to break that - instead, it builds on it, adding its own new type of combo piece, and making it key to passing some stages too. That’s something you don’t see every day. Published globally by Kakao Games in collaboration with SM Entertainment, SMiniz is a casual match-3 puzzler that features chibi-style versions of artists from some of SM’s biggest groups (and one of my personal favourites, aespa). After spending enough time with it, it’s clear this isn’t just a puzzle game with a celebrity skin pasted on top. I strongly feel like it touches on the exact things that make a K-pop fan tick: good music and a little bit of gacha. It just uses match-3 as its backbone. ... [ MORE ]

Moonlight Peaks is a cosy vampire farming sim coming soon on Android

Moonlight Peaks is a cosy vampire farming sim coming soon on AndroidCosy life sims are everywhere right now. Farming. Renovating cottages. Befriending the locals. It’s a formula that clearly works. Moonlight Peaks sticks to that familiar rhythm, but with one small adjustment - you happen to be a vampire. The supernatural life sim has now locked in a July 7th launch, and alongside the previously announced PC version, it’s also arriving on Google Play Games. There are Switch versions in the mix too, but for us mobile players, the important part is that Android will get the same launch window. ... [ MORE ]

Outhold brings minimalist roguelike tower defence to iOS and Android

Outhold brings minimalist roguelike tower defence to iOS and AndroidI feel like strategy games have been getting a bit leaner lately. Fewer distractions, cleaner interfaces, and the basic systems end up doing most of the talking. That’s more or less the idea behind Outhold, which is heading to iOS and Android on March 9th after already finding success on PC. The core idea is simple enough. Each run begins with a fragile defence around the fading fires of Outhold. Enemies arrive in waves, and towers fire back. Your goal is to survive as long as possible. And when the run inevitably collapses, which it will, you take the resources you earned and invest them in permanent upgrades before trying again. ... [ MORE ]

Hearthside: A Teeny Tiny Game turns merge puzzles into a cosy medieval city builder soon on iOS and Android

Hearthside: A Teeny Tiny Game turns merge puzzles into a cosy medieval city builder soon on iOS and AndroidThere’s a slight risk in naming your game Hearthside. Not because it’s a bad name - it’s actually quite cosy. But because someone like me will instinctively read it as Hearthstone and expect a completely different genre. To be clear, Hearthside: A Teeny Tiny Game is not about card battles or legendary minions. It’s a much quieter affair. Instead, this is a merge-based city builder where you’re slowly assembling a medieval settlement on a limited board. Think less sprawling empire management and more careful puzzle placement. Every tile matters, and space disappears faster than you’d expect. ... [ MORE ]

Arc System Works has announced that Goritaire will launch on March 19th, across consoles, PC, and mobile devices. Store pages are already live, which means the jungle logistics operation can begin shortly. ... [ MORE ]

Little Nightmares and Idle Champions bundle free this week on Epic Games Store mobile

Little Nightmares and Idle Champions bundle free this week on Epic Games Store mobileEvery week, the Epic Games Store offers one freebie on mobile, and this week’s offering is a pretty good one.
