Ah, mahjong, the game for people who feel that chess is too straightforward and simplistic. But this complex game of matching tiles has nonetheless captured the imagination of many generations, not least via mobile versions such as Mahjong Soul. And as we usually do with any mobile puzzler, it's the latest collaboration that we're taking a look at today!

This time around, Mahjong Soul is teaming up with Sword Art Online for a brand-new collaboration running until May 12th. The collaboration will feature key, fan-favourite characters drawn from the hit series, such as Kirito, Asuna, Sinon and Leafa.

Sword Art Online will need little introduction to anime fans. But for Mahjong Soul players, this'll likely be the first time they run into the world of the popular anime series, which sees ace MMORPG player Kirito trapped alongside thousands of others inside the virtual game Sword Art Online.

These Sword Art Online Azure Expanse outfits will be available only during the collaboration period, alongside exclusive, themed SAO decorations, including tile backs and a portrait frame to let you customise your virtual mahjong set.

You'll also want to dive in and have a look at the limited-time match mode Vulture's Deal, too, which features an interesting twist on regular mahjong gameplay and, as you might expect, plenty of goodies to grab as well.

Finally, even if you're just checking in, it's worth having a look at the new collab story, which sees your favourite SAO characters arrive in the world of Mahjong Soul.

Toy Wars: Survivor TD is a simple, cartoony and fast-paced RPG tower defence

It's been a while since we had a good, straightforward tower defence on mobile, or at least one with an interesting spin alongside solid core gameplay. Fortunately, today it's developer Actionfit's turn to deliver with the newly released Toy Wars: Survivor TD for iOS and Android, though going under the name Toy Survivor - The War on the former.
