Warframe: 1999 finally drops after the most painful build-up known to mankind
Posted by Shaun Walton on December 16th, 2024
In what has been one of the longest, built-up, frustrating run-ups to an update release, Warframe: 1999 is finally available to enjoy. We have had webcomics, music, animations, and a whole Tennocon full of teasers, and now we can actually sit down, and dive into Höllvania fully.
To celebrate 1999’s launch, there is a collaboration between Warframe and Game of the Year Balatro nominee kicking off now. That’s if you believe The Game Awards, they are clearly rigged; there is no way Wuthering Waves, Final Fantasy XIV, or Warframe itself won nothing. Anyway, you can slap Excalibur, Mag, and Volt over the King, Queen, and Jack cards in Balatro now,

Who Muted Uncle Marcus? review
+ Universal App - Designed for iPhone and iPad
By Campbell Bird on March 18th, 2022
Our rating: :: GUESS WHODUNNIT
This murder mystery lacks confidence to the point that it takes any meaningful sense of control away from the player. The end result feels like little more than a repetitive guessing game.

Idle Guardians: Never Die is a pixel art idle RPG that's available now for iOS and Android
Posted by Stephen Gregson-Wood on July 31st, 2020
SuperPlanet has been fairly prolific with game releases so far this year with both Evil Hunter Tycoon and Lucid Adventure releasing earlier this year. Now, they've released another idle RPG called Idle Guardians: Never Die, which you can download now for both iOS and Android.
The game will see players collecting and upgrading the titular Guardians who can have their power increased in several ways.

Meanwhile, the other method is through Dragon Stones which are obtained through Rebirth.
The best new games we played this week - January 5
Posted by Jessica Famularo on January 6th, 2018
It's always hard returning to the daily grind after the holiday break, so it's best to take things a bit slowly. Turns out the mobile gaming world is getting off to a lazy start, too, but we still have three excellent games to feature. Let's get the weekend started off right.
Twisty Road! guide - how to hit high scores
Posted by Jessica Famularo on January 4th, 2018
Twisty Road! is the new big hit from prolific developer Voodoo. It's another simple high-score chaser in a line of similar games, but this time you're guiding a ball down a precarious, twisting path to get as far as you possibly can.
While the concept itself is simple, hitting the top of the leader boards is not a simple task. The game's titular twisty roads is no casual country-side drive. You'll need to think and react fast if you want to get anywhere. Here are a few tips to help you reach a high score.
Fire Rides guide - how to swing to success
Posted by Jessica Famularo on October 19th, 2017
It's another day, which means another Voodoo game has come to glue our hands to our mobile phones. Yes, it's been an especially prolific month for this particular mobile publisher, but we're certainly not complaining. Fire Rides is yet another arcade game in a line of fine Voodoo arcade games in which you swing a fireball through a jagged, geometric tunnel. Fling your ball through hoops for bonus points, but be sure you don't touch either side of the tunnel, or risk extinguishing your fireball.
It's a fun time for sure, but as always there are some survival tips that might help you go from zero to hero more quickly. Here are a few tips to get you off the ground.

Noodlecake Games brings 'Flipping Legend' to iOS later this month
Posted by Jessica Famularo on June 2nd, 2017
Hot on the heels of Bouncy Hoops, Noodlecake's latest release, comes Flipping Legend. The prolific indie publisher is hard at work this month it seems with two new games out this month.
Noodlecake Studios sneakily announces one last game for 2016
Posted by Jessica Famularo on December 15th, 2016
The ever prolific Noodlecake Studios is ending the year with a splash, publishing just one last game before 2016 is through. Island Delta, created by Mantisbite Games, will be arriving on iOS on December 22 as an early Christmas gift. We think that's plenty of reason to celebrate!
Island Delta is an action adventure game set in a colorfully rendered cartoon world. Its sci-fi, futuristic setting has you wielding an anti-gravity gun as either Zoe or Baxter, the game's main protagonists. Zoe seems to specialize in tech skills, while Baxter is all about blowing things up. You'll have to make good use of both of their abilities if you want to succesfully escape from the evil Doctor Gunderson's lab.
Succesfully navigating levels and defeating enemies all comes down to how creative you get with using the objects around you to solve puzzles and maneuver your way around traps. That means sucking in enemies and crates and throwing them to block lasers and cross platforms hovering over poisonous green gloop. There seems to be a lot of room for creativity in how you approach exploration.
While the game will only be on Apple devices for the time being, Android users shouldn't feel too bad. Noodlecake's bringing Pixeljam Games' browser pinball game Snowball! exclusively to the Google Play Store on the 22nd.
What do you think of Noodlecake Studios' latest? Let us know in the comments below.

Jump Into June With 148Apps
How do you know what apps are worth your time and money? Just look to the review team at 148Apps. We sort through the chaos and find the apps you're looking for. The ones we love become Editor’s Choice, standing out above the many good apps and games with something just a little bit more to offer. Take a look at what we've been up to this week, and find even more in our Reviews Archive.
RPG Clicker
There’s been a prevalence of one-tap RPGs, and RPG Clicker is one of the more recent entries. It’s a lot like all the others, albeit with a slightly more involved equipment system, but you’ll still find yourself drawn in against your better judgement.You tap on the screen in order to inflict damage upon your enemies. Keep at it and eventually they die, you gain a bit of experience, and the process repeats all over again. Every now and then, you come across a treasure chest which offers up a handy piece of equipment to boost your abilities. You also earn gold for every kill. This gold can be used to upgrade your abilities, your weapon, spells, and also unlock new areas. --Jennifer Allen
Insight Guides Phrasebook
You’re going to need to pay up to glean the real benefits of Insight Guides Phrasebooks, but that doesn’t make the free app a complete waste of time by any means.Designed to get you set up with the basics for a simple vacation, Insight Guides Phrasebooks isn’t going to help you become fluent in any language but it will help you with how to ask for directions. -Jennifer Allen
Blades of Brim
While I have to admit that games like Blades of Brim seem to be almost as prolific as match-3 puzzlers and Threes! clones, it actually feels like progress rather than more of the same. It might just be the game that gets me back into endless runners (that aren’t Canabalt).Blades of Brim is a third-person (i.e. over-the-shoulder) endless runner that plays much like you’d expect on the surface. Swiping left or right makes the runner move to that lane, while swiping up will jump. What’s different is how all of these moves also incorporate attacks that can be chained together. Plus you can pull of some rather fancy moves, regardless. --Rob Rich
Sago Mini Boats
Continuing the sandbox/playbox style theme that’s worked so well for the Sago Mini games in the past, Sago Mini Boats is sure to be fun for your little ones. It’s a little overly sensitive at times with its controls, but you can pretty much forgive it thanks to some overwhelming cuteness. You control Harvey the dog, as he sets sail for fun and adventure. You can choose the destination, as well as the kind of boat you control. The latter is particularly colorful with plenty of options for variety. You can opt to manipulate a banana boat or a more conventional tugboat. Even a shark or pirate ship can be controlled too. In each case, movement is much the same. You can either hold your finger to the side of the screen or drag the boat around, throwing it into the air if you want. --Jennifer Allen
Radical Rappelling
The first mobile game that ever truly grabbed me was Halfbrick's Jetpack Joyride. Although the endless runner has been done to death, there are just enough things about that game that would draw me back in for "one more run." Radical Rappelling is their latest spin on the genre, and I'm finding myself similarly grabbed by it. With a high level of polish, tons of unlockables, and a unique approach, Radical Rappelling is definitely my new go-to quick game on my phone. When players first boot up Radical Rappelling, they will likely notice two big features that aren't usually present in runners. First, it's played in portrait mode characters are rappelling down a cliff side. Second, the characters don't move automatically but instead jump on their own while players must tap the screen to start sliding down. These differences are pretty fundamental mix-ups to the standard runner and make Radical Rappelling feel fresh from the get go. --Campbell Bird

Neo Smartpen N2
An opportunity to check out the Neo Smartpen N2? Yes, please…It looks sleek, but still retains a professional feel. In a meeting of executive ballpoint pens, the N2 wouldn’t look too out of place. It has a dark finish, is angled but still faintly cylindrical and almost pyramidal; with the cover off, it tapers to the writing end. There is a power button and a color LED towards the “bottom” of the pen, and at the very end portion, there is a micro-USB charging port.--Tre Lawrence
Outside World
Fans of simple puzzles should enjoy Outside World.For those keen on backstory, the one here is simple: the play controls our protagonist, Kyrsten, who is on a quest to find her way home. At the onset, she hooks up with a spirit entity called Jaynie who is willing to help her on this journey.There… the journey begins.--Tre Lawrence
PowerIt Multipurpose Charging Kit
As always, I am a huge fan of measured convergence. I’ve said it before and will say it again: give me a combo device, as long as it does multiple things well.This is especially true of portable battery packs. One stays in the go-bag whenever I am out; but what if that unit can charge multiple batteries, add something useful like a flashlight, and… oh… say… jump a dead car battery?Ah. Maybe the PowerIt Jump Start Kit?--Tre Lawrence

It sounds silly, but Blades of Brim really does feel like the next step for third-person endless runners.
