Voyage to Farland...pretty much an homage to the Shiren the Wanderer Roguelike series.

Sample it well Magic Phone folks, for unlike Dweller it doesn't have a Desktop version!~ :shakes fist in hopeful rage:

Not sure if this was in part directed at a similar post to mine (with just appbrain links)

but within the appbrain links there are QR codes, or alternatively you can install the apps to your phone OTA from the website itself.. i personally prefer appbrain links over QR codes

i also recommend this...

chain reaction
http://www.appbrain.com/app/com.eekgames.chainreaction

an impressive (but kinda short) puzzle game.

the developer is quite talented. he also made Word Drop ( http://www.appbrain.com/app/word-dro...games.worddrop ). a good time waster.

Yazan · (10-15-2010, 08:28 PM)

Try Spaghetti Marshmallows! Awesome game!

Is apparently simliar to World of Goo.

Free version

Full version

Futureman · (10-16-2010, 06:23 PM)

Angry Birds is missing two whole worlds compared to iOS version, correct?

I assume those will be in the paid update Rovio mentioned.

Free version has ads. And as I just mentioned, missing two worlds.

Two fun games I just came across and took for a test drive:

Beats, Advanced Rhythm Game (Free)

DDR-like for your fingers. It's a solid game, comes with a few songs and has .sm support with links on where to download more files. Arrows go to the rhythm, no lag, accurate controls, it's a really solid choice if, like me, you've been waiting for a music game on Android and dig this kind of thing.

Unique Rabit (Free)

Free sidescrolling platformer. The art is really gorgeous and there's an occasional 3d effect between platforms which adds to the visual candy. It's a simple in it's level design, the challenge comes more from comboing your jumps on enemies and not falling/dying. I like Jumpy more but it's enjoyable.

The "goal" is to open all the Elements (300 of them) by combining them.

For example, combining Fire and Water gets you Alcohol, combining Alcohol and Water gets you a Vodka IIRC. Or something like that.

Much more interesting stuff opens as you progress, though. Life + Mushrooms = 1UP, 1UP + Eggs = Yoshi :lol

KamenSenshi · (10-22-2010, 03:56 AM)

Been grabbing a lot of droid games and was wondering. if anyone knew of a good upcoming rpg or maybe if Chaos Rings would ever get over. Like no rpgs here. Just using that one for an example since there already is Zenonia.

clashfan · (10-22-2010, 05:14 AM)

Has anyone tried psx4droid? It's a decent emulator.

Definitely recommend this game. It's very fun and very well done. This game deserves your money.

AndresON777 · (10-22-2010, 01:46 PM)

cool thread.

I bought the full version of air control but now the old maps arent working right, maybe it's my phone, idk.

soccer superstars is fun but I just don't like real games with a touch screen. Super K.O. is great though, the punch out clone.

Kafel · (10-22-2010, 01:49 PM)

Hey guys I'm getting a new phone this afternoon. I'm thinking about maybe buying a HTC Wildfire.

I'll be able to play everything mentioned here ? Thx.

The Wildfire has half the cpu speed of the N1 or the Desire, maybe you will have some fps issues in graphical intense games, and I don't know if it will get the Android 3.0 update in a couple of months ..

But you will be able to play everything that we talk about here at the moment, Angry Birds, Alchemy.. etc

twinturbo2 · (10-22-2010, 01:55 PM)

Does anyone here have a Motorola i1? If so, how well does it run 3D apps like Asphalt 5?

joelseph · (10-22-2010, 01:56 PM)

Any word on GameDev Story being ported over? Game has a name that is hard to google.

Thank you. Maybe I'll get another Android phone then. I was thinking about the Sony X10 Mini Pro but I guess the tiny screen might create problems.

No, I think it has more RAM but the same CPU as the HTC Hero, most 2D games here should be fine, but 3D games are a no-no, even some of the most simples I tried are almost unplayable.

And actually the screen is pretty bad, QVGA 320x240 resolution, for example, Angry Birds dosn't work on Wildfire.

I'm happy with the phone for the price I paid and what I could afford it's nice, but if you're really interested in Android gaming, you should look other options.

If i'm not wrong the Mini Pro screen is the same resolution as the Wildfire.

Yeah, I think the X10 mini pro it's a worse choice than the Wildfire, Wildfire has an slightly worse CPU but has 3 times more RAM.

Here's another one for RPG fans. Ran into this while looking around Androlib. It's a FF/DQ clone. Free too. Only catch is that it's not in english.

They announced support for the Droid platform some time during the beginning of this year, but haven't released anything ;( Really wondering if they are actually going to put out something at all.

Uh, isn't the iPhone version a terribly lazy port? Yet, everyone loves it.

rohlfinator · (12-12-2010, 10:13 PM)

I haven't played any of the other versions (is it on anything other than iOS?), but so far this seems more polished than most Android games I've played.

The first two times I ran it, it gave me some error about a license number and exited, so I was about to return it, but the third time it ran fine and I haven't seen that problem again.

Borman · (12-12-2010, 10:27 PM)

Im on Year 5, and havent had any issues. Loaded up first try on my evo, and plays like the iOS version. Love it!

Zero issues here, and I'm like 8 years in. Man my company is the niche hit company or something. The most I've ever done in sales was 300k and currently im primarily a PCFX developer. Trying to make the money to develop for the SNES :lol
