HandyGames, the studio behind Townsmen, to focus on mobile ports as THQ Nordic Mobile
It's a bit of a red-letter day for the storied mobile developer HandyGames today, as they change gears significantly, becoming THQ Nordic Mobile. It marks the end of a name that's been in use for a quarter-century now, and a new chapter for the company; not to mention mobile players like us. Alright, enough business talk. What does this actually mean for you and me? Well, the newly christened THQ Nordic Mobile are set to switch gears significantly and focus mainly on PC and console ports for mobile. It's not unexpected, considering they've worked on previous mobile versions for Wreckfest and Titan Quest, not to mention the recently announced Epic Mickey port. ...

Take That Hill teaches real military tactics through turn-based battles on Android
I've never got on with a wargame's rulebook. Something about the sheer thickness of them puts me off before I've even opened the box. Decades of jargon stacked on top of decades more, and the nagging sense that everyone else in the room already knows whatever a “ZOC” is. Take That Hill exists specifically to sort that out, and it turns up with a fairly serious pedigree behind it. The primer itself comes from Fight Club International, a wargaming network whose membership stretches across serving military, the defence industry and the games industry itself. Not the usual credential list for a mobile strategy release. ... MORE(https://www.pocketgamer.com/take-that-hill/android-launch/)
Nitelore brings anti-gravity racing back to iOS this month
Some genres fade out. The anti-gravity racer did not fade - it just stopped, somewhere around the point where everybody decided a racer needed a licensing deal with a real manufacturer. I’ve been annoyed about that for years and Nitelore is the first thing in a while to do anything about it. I put a rather embarrassing share of my PSP's battery life into Wipeout. Not the racing, particularly. The feeling of it, air brakes biting into a corner hard enough to shove you sideways, the ship carrying weight it had no business carrying, tracks you end up learning in your hands before your head. That is a very specific sensation and almost nothing has offered it since. ... MORE(https://www.pocketgamer.com/nitelore/announcement/)
Restoria has you restoring historical artefacts with care and attention to detail
Now, I won't deny being a Brit that we have what I'd dub a contentious relationship with historical preservation. Fortunately, there are plenty of places around the world taking a slightly less, let's call it grabby approach to history. And it's their work that the upcoming 3D restoration puzzler sim, Restoria, helps to honour. Restoria sees you take on the role of, surprise, a historical preservation expert. It's described as being influenced by Power Wash Simulator, and you can definitely see why. You're handed a dirty, ruined artefact and have to make use of your own precision and specialised tools to restore it to a state worthy of display in a museum. ...

Pokémon TCG Pocket Player Count Drops Sharply from a Year Ago
Pokémon TCG Pocket has seen its monthly player count fall significantly, as DeNA looks for ways to keep fans logging in and opening packs.
Disney Epic Mickey: Rebrushed has you saving a dark world as the iconic animated mouse
Nowadays it may seem an obvious choice, but back in 2010 the idea of trying to make a cute kid's character into something darker and more action-packed was sheer lunacy. Which probably explains why I distinctly remember a mixture of mockery and disbelief towards Epic Mickey. But now this cult classic platformer is set to make a return, this time to iOS and Android with a potential September release. Epic Mickey is a 3D platformer that sees you taking on the role of, who else? Mickey Mouse! But this isn't a cute, colourful adventure, as you'll instead take on the challenge of freeing a place known as the Wasteland. ...

A Guidebook of Babel is a sentimental adventure about memory and loss that's free on Epic Games Store
It seems as if it's been a while since we've had the chance to cover one of the Epic Games Store's freebies on mobile. But here we are, with today's subject, and one that's certainly a doozy, with A Guidebook of Babel! Available, free to claim and download on the EGS for mobile on iOS. If the name hadn't clued you in, this is a very esoteric little pick. Set aboard the Babel, a cruise ship taking its passengers to the afterlife and powered by their memories. You take on the role of a passenger traversing the grand cruise ship and helping out its various passengers extricate themselves from tricky situations. ...

Magic Loot codes
!(https://assetsio.gnwcdn.com/wizard-alchemy-codesaGrkQZh.jpg?width=690&quality=85&format=jpg&auto=webp) If you played Wizard Alchemy last year and thought, huh, this game just isn't stimulating enough, Magic Loot is a very similar premise with the speed of your journey from apprentice to master cranked up. You zoom through a tunnel of magical monsters, annihilate them with spells to build your power, then take their loot and sell it to buy better gear so you can go further into the tunnel. But becoming the best wizard of all time will take resources, and a quick way to amass them is by cashing in codes for free rewards. We've amassed all these Magic Loot codes into a handy list, so you can get a head start on becoming the ultimate loot wizard. Read more(https://www.rockpapershotgun.com/magic-loot-codes)
Pigeon: A Love Story flies back onto mobile to let you take to the air across real-world cities
We've seen the loss of many interesting and distinctive games on mobile over the years. Whether that's due to a lack of updates or developers and publishers shutting down. But sometimes, things that were once thought lost make a return, as is the case with Pigeon: A Love Story. In Pigeon: A Love Story, you take on the role of the titular avian, taking flight around real-world metropolises such as London, New York and Tokyo in pursuit of your soulmate. It's a game which puts atmosphere and exploration above high-scores and leaderboards as you soar through the air to the tune of an ambient soundtrack. ...

Dungeon Odyssey lets fans of the manhwa enjoy an idle RPG based on the series
The Korean manhwa industry has slowly become a new pillar of comic-book publishing in the 21st century. No doubt helped by major hits such as Solo Leveling, and the various gaming adaptations series like it receive. And the latest to get the nod is Dungeon Odyssey, which now takes the form of an idle RPG from developer Super Planet! Dungeon Odyssey is set in a world where a war between humans and monsters saw children kidnapped and brought below the surface. Thanks to the power of the labyrinth, they now boast strange powers, with our principal character Kim Jinwoo ending up as king of the dungeon through a series of events. ...
