Coming alongside Reverse: 1999's 1.5th anniversary, Spring Unending is themed heavily after ancient China with a wuxia flavour.

📱 MobileMongil: Star Dive is out now on iOS and Android for creature-collecting ARPG action

And it's their latest major release, Mongil: Star Dive, that's finally made its way to iOS and Android today after a long period of teasing! If you're not already familiar from our previous coverage, Mongil: Star Dive is a spinoff of the popular Korean RPG Monster Taming.

📱 MobilePokémon Go May Community Day brings Lechonk into the spotlight
The May Community Day in Pokémon Go will feature Lechonk. If that sentence made you smile, you're already logging in on May 9th. If you're not sure how you feel about it yet, I’ll still probably see you there. The event runs the usual 2:00 to 5:00 pm local time window, with Lechonk flooding the map and boosted Shiny rates for the duration. There's also a chance at a Special Background variant if luck is on your side. Don't forget to take a few snapshots during the event either; there's a surprise waiting if you do. ...

📱 MobileChill with You: Lo-Fi Story turns focus sessions into a narrative experience on iOS and Android
Lo-fi girl has probably gotten you through exams, deadlines, and maybe even a few questionable life decisions. Now she or at least the idea of her has a mobile game. Chill with You: Lo-Fi Story is out now on iOS and Android, and it sits somewhere between a productivity tool and a soft visual novel. You're at your desk, timer running, lo-fi track on and somewhere in between focus sessions, there's Satone, a writer working on her own story while you work on yours. The two things are connected. Spend enough time actually focusing and the relationship develops. It's either a clever incentive to stay on task or a reason to keep checking your phone. Possibly both. ...

📱 MobileKlutch launches on iOS and Android with anime-style drag racing and sci-fi drama
Drag racing can be pretty one-dimensional. You’ve got a car, a track, and a leaderboard. But what if you had that and a deposed empire and a former partner who faked his own death and a government called the Speed-o-cracy? Well, that’s Klutch coming in hot. Klutch is out now on iOS and Android and if you read my previous coverage, you’ll know I compared it to Speed Racer. You're a retired ship tuner dragged back in when Chase, your former partner, presumed dead after joining the Redline Dominion, resurfaces. He’s now one of its captains after the group overthrew the Empire. ... MORE(https://www.pocketgamer.com/klutch/official-launch-android-ios/)
📱 MobileSummoners War marks 12th anniversary by taking a jab at its fellow mobile games
Twelve years in, and Summoners War is celebrating by making fun of every other mobile game's marketing budget. Com2uS has dropped seven parody commercials that open exactly like the ads everyone skips – fake gameplay, panicked reactions, and wildly incompetent players. And then the whole thing comes crashing down. Characters walk off set. Directors look confused. What just happened? Each ad pivots to Summoners War at the end, landing on a simple point. If you want a real RPG, you don't need gimmicks. Barring that though, there’s a pretty substantial anniversary update to look into. ...

📱 MobileGears Tower Defense offers familiar but fun tower defence action on iOS and Android
After covering the lunacy of Duper, it's almost nice to return to something a little more standard. Although Gears Tower Defense does have a small but interesting twist on the format, it's going to be very familiar to fans of the genre now that it's available on iOS and Android. But its steampunk-inspired zombie survival action may have some bright spots to enjoy! Gears Tower Defense is set in the distant future of the 22nd century, after a rogue AI drives humanity underground into the so-called Gear Fortresses. With most of humanity turned into the zombie-like Wailers, it's up to you to reclaim the surface for all mankind. ... MORE(https://www.pocketgamer.com/gears-tower-defense/out-now/)
📱 MobileDuper goes all-in on an absolute mish-mash of elements in this social multiplayer game
It's rare that a new game leaves me struggling for words. But when it comes to something that includes as many mechanics, elements and as bizarre a description as Duper, I think that lack of words is justified. All we know for sure is that it's currently available on mobile as a direct download from the Duper website. To find out what Duper is, or professes to be at least, we have to look at the official description. Slated as 'poker meets Catan', Duper puts you in a high-stakes game with the objective of outsmarting and bluffing your opponents while gathering resources and accruing powerful Emblem cards. ...
