Beholder: Conductor lets you take the control of an authoritarian rail line
As we head into the weekend, it's about time for us all to relax and take a breather. But perhaps the endless drudgery is getting to you. Perhaps you want just a bit of...power, no matter how petty it may be. Well, in which case Beholder: Conductor, free now on the Epic Games Store for mobile, may be what you're looking for. Similar to the other Beholder games in the series, Beholder: Conductor sees you working under the thumb of a tyrannical government dedicated to spying on its citizens. This time, however, rather than being a mere landlord, you'll be stepping aboard the Determination Bringer, an enormous, luxurious train. ...

Outerplane embraces the darkness in latest update amid big plans to launch on PC
Anime-style RPG Outerplane turned up the heat with its summer update last month. Now it’s embracing the darkness with a new patch that’s all about demons and saints. Developer MAJOR9 is dropping the content injection - which introduces a formidable new Demiurge hero and a story-driven event dungeon - today, and it arrives as the game nears a major milestone in the shape of an imminent PC launch via Steam. ...

Slots & Daggers is a chance-based adventure from the publishers of CloverPit
Ever since Balatro first transformed poker into an exciting roguelike deckbuilder, we've seen plenty of other developers put their own spin on everything from slot machines to scratchards. And Slots & Daggers is hoping to offer a similar twist on the format, with a roguelike adventure where what you spin is what you use in battle. Set to arrive on iOS and Android later this month, Slots & Daggers sees you take on the role of an adventurer in a weird fantasy world. Your objective, as usual, is to head out on quests, defeat enemies and acquire loot. But to do so you'll have to spin a slot machine-like device and make use of the equipment it offers you. ...

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. ...

Little Corners brings cosy sticker decorating to mobile later this year
Trump cards were my thing while growing up, not stickers, but I understand the appeal well enough to see exactly what Little Corners is going for. It just swaps the shoebox for a screen, and it is about to get a lot more screens to do it on. Developer Meteor Pixel and publisher Weekend Games have announced that Little Corners is coming to iOS and Android alongside Nintendo Switch 1 and 2, later this year. It has been out on PC via Steam a while, currently sitting at a 30% discount if you fancy a head start before the rest of us catch up. ...

Palworld Online is an MMORPG take on Pocketpair's popular survival game that's coming to mobile this year
Palworld is something of a hot topic right now with version 1.0 going live on PC last month. Our sibling site, PG.Biz, recently did a fantastic piece on its viral rise to fame, so do check it out. And it's set to have a mobile presence as well, with the recently announced Palworld Online, which will be published by Garena. Palworld Online is officially licensed by Pocketpair and aims to reimagine the PC version's scale for mobile. However, rather than being a mere port, it should take on a life of its own, complete with an entirely new story and sidequests created specifically for this MMORPG. The world sounds pretty vast, too, with several regions to unlock as you capture and raise more of the titular Pals. ... MORE(https://www.pocketgamer.com/palworld-online/announced-ios-android/)
Mutazione is free on the Epic Games Store mobile this week, letting you grow musical gardens and uncover family secrets
A meteor levelling a tropical holiday resort would be the entire plot of most things. In Mutazione it is backstory, and distant backstory at that. The survivors stayed put, and a century on, their descendants are mostly busy gossiping about each other. Better story, I'd say. Kai is 15 and gets packed off to Mutazione to nurse her grandfather Nonno back to health. He's dying. He also has plans for her that he's in no rush to explain. Everyone else in town has mutated in one direction or another over the past 100 years, and they've all got plenty to say about each other. Awkward for Kai. Good for us. ...

Logitech’s handheld plans are on ice — don’t expect a G Cloud 2 soon
Logitech's new gaming boss, Robin Piispanen, tells me he likes the idea of gaming handhelds. "It's such a charming value proposition," he says, as we sip iced vanilla lattes at my local cafe. But he's not building one right now. He's not sure when or if Logitech should try again, after its underwhelming experiment with &8230;
Foretales, the story-driven card game, is available for free this week on the Epic Games Store
The Epic Games Store has been on something of a roll recently. With the exception of Construction Simulator 3 (shudders), they've given away some great stuff for free, with TMNT: Shredder's Revenge and Princess Farmer being recent examples. And this week brings another tantalising prospect with Foretales, available for free until July 30th. First launched in 2025 on mobile, Foretales tells the story of a thief named Volepain who has visions of the end of the world. And that's no good for somebody who likes to pinch things. To keep the thievery dream alive, then, you'll have to put a stop to whatever forces threaten our anthropomorphic hero's very existence. ...

Winter Burrow lets you rebuild a cosy mouse home one knitted jumper at a time
Big-city mice do not usually get much sympathy from me, but Winter Burrow has been chipping away at that since it launched on Steam, Switch and Xbox Game Pass. Now it is heading to iOS and Android too, and the sweater-knitting has apparently followed it there. You play a mouse returning home after years away, only to find the old family burrow half collapsed and the Aunt who was meant to be looking after it nowhere to be found. So instead of settling in for a peaceful retirement, you are out gathering resources, patching up the place room by room, and trying to work out what actually happened to her. ...

Langrisser: Sea of Sword lets you charge into battle with two heroes instead of one
Last week, Black Jack Studio and HongKong GameTree announced Langrisser: Sea of Sword, the next entry in the RPG series. Since then, the Steam page has gone live, and while that's no good for us mobile players wanting to pre-register, it is chock-full of details for what we can expect when Sea of Sword eventually arrives. The Steam description posits this will be an 'evolution' in the series, moving it on from its linear roots, promising much more freedom than ever before. To me, that screams open world, which is usually a reason for me to actually scream. However, the trailer gives me Octopath Traveler vibes, so I'm hoping we're talking about a small open world with numerous paths to explore rather than some Ubisoft-like checklist nightmare. ...
