Game novelties (16.09 - 20.09)

About the most notable and not only game releases in our game digest for the past week. 

Total ConquestGameloft has introduced its own version of Clash of Clans – three-dimensional and about Ancient Rome.

It turned out very nice, but without surprises. It is worth paying attention only to those who are tired of fantasy and want real 3D (there is also excellent Russian here). 

Infinity Blade IIIContinuation of the same song as in the previous parts.

There are few innovations – the presence of a base, a second character. The difference in the schedule will be felt only by the happy owners of the iPhone 5S. 

Shadow VampShadow Vamp is a rare game, in which the entire gameplay is tied to 3D.

The user’s task is to guide the vampire through the morning city so that he does not fall under the rays of the sun. To do this, you need to twist the city (!) in such a way that the hero can sneak into his crypt through the shadows.  

Reaper – Tale of a Pale SwordsmanRole-playing platformer with cartoon “indie” graphics and unusual gesture control.

It is curious that the role-playing component here is full-fledged. There is a full inventory, nine characteristics, a skill tree. It is played very cheerfully. In some ways (perhaps with good electronic music and palette), the game resembles Bastion. 

Speed XThe project is about the race of futuristic spaceships through a hypnotic tunnel.

A kind of stylization for the games of the 70s and at the same time reminders of the demoscene of the early 90s. In general, a strong middle-class man who is unlikely to earn anything on the App Store.  

Angry Birds IIOn Thursday, we were unfair to the project.

Yes, the mechanics are still the same as four years ago, but the execution turned out to be at a very high level in the game. Rovio has not released such beautiful “birds” yet. In addition, the game introduced numerous new characters with unique abilities, as well as pigs. As a result, we have the best Angry Birds since 2009. A good reason to return to the project. 

Dragon FingaIn fact, the name of the game should have been different – Rag Doll Kung Fu.

Initially, Another Plane Productions planned to make a mobile version of the game of the once popular PC fighting game, where the user had to pull the mouse over the part of the body of the game character with which the player wanted to strike at the opponent’s doll. But either it didn’t work out with the rights, or for some other reason, but the project was changed. However, the gameplay is still the same: if you want to take a step or jump, click on the first leg and pull in one direction or another.
