Tomb Busters is an upcoming horror or comedy adventure depending on how many co-op teammates you've got

Overview & Key Takeaways

While the visuals remind me a lot of NetEase's Identity V, that doesn't mean Tomb Busters can't hold its own - and with what I've seen from the trailer so far, it does look like it's got plenty of potential. It's effectively being marketed as a horror game when played all by your lonesome - which then evolves into an adventure with two people and a treasure hunt with three. The thing is, it's also being advertised as a comedy when played with four, and honestly, that kind of positioning really makes it stand out in the market, in my opinion. The highlight here is obviously its co-op gameplay, which I really do appreciate given how much of a scaredy-cat I am. ... [MORE]

  • Play alone for some serious horror, or with friends for some serious fun
  • Work for the very sus Supernatural Company
  • Pre-registration now open

While the visuals remind me a lot of NetEase's Identity V, that doesn't mean Tomb Busters can't hold its own - and with what I've seen from the trailer so far, it does look like it's got plenty of potential. It's effectively being marketed as a horror game when played all by your lonesome - which then evolves into an adventure with two people and a treasure hunt with three.

The thing is, it's also being advertised as a comedy when played with four, and honestly, that kind of positioning really makes it stand out in the market, in my opinion. The highlight here is obviously its co-op gameplay, which I really do appreciate given how much of a scaredy-cat I am.

Here's the premise: you work for the on-the-nose Supernatural Company, where things are - as you might expect - not as simple as they might seem. Thankfully, you've got your Supernatural Company Workplace Survival Guide with you to help you navigate the treacherous waters of onboarding - and so begins your epic exploration of mysterious ruins and your equally epic treasure hunting.

Now, as for the aforementioned Identity V-esque feels, that extends to the really cool enemies you face too - it's not called "Tomb Busters" for nothing, I suppose.

In any case, it's set for a May 27th launch according to the App Store, although since those things often change without prior notice, I'd take that with a grain of salt. You can pre-register on Google Play now, though, just so you can get first dibs as soon as it's out. And it's apparently free to play with in-app purchases.

While you wait, if you're looking for something similar to tide you over until then, our list of the best multiplayer games on Android is a fab place to start!

ZombiSeed mixes Flower Zombies with relationship drama and card battles

The Blossom virus does not leave much room for a peaceful gardening career. It transforms the infected into beautiful, flesh-eating Flower Zombies, while those who resist becoming monsters awaken supernatural powers and become Hunters. That is where ZombiSeed begins. ZombiSeed comes from LemonVelvet, a four-person team based in South Korea, and it is still a fair way off. The Kickstarter opens on September 10th, with the iOS and Android release pencilled in for April 2027. Text will be available in English and Korean. The voice acting stays in Korean, covering selected main-story scenes and every Card Story. ... MORE(https://www.pocketgamer.com/zombiseed/announcement/)

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

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. As you might expect, Toy Wars: Survivor TD is a mashup of Vampire Survivors and typical tower defence gameplay. You'll take on each level facing down a host of bizarre, butchered toys as the noble (and still intact) playthings yourself. Along the way, you'll upgrade your weapons and characters, working to survive each battle in turn. ... MORE(https://www.pocketgamer.com/toy-wars-survivor-td/out-now-on-mobile/)
