Hell Clock pits you against a strict time limit in this fast-paced, dark historical ARPG

One of the harshest mistresses is time itself. After all, we only get so long on the clock before it's up. And while that's hard to appreciate on the macro level, in the dark historical world of Hell Clock, you'll be forced to reckon with each second spent on every run you make into the depths of vengeance and justice, as it's available to buy now on Android. Interestingly enough, Hell Clock is based on the real history of Canudos, a religious settlement destroyed in the 19th century by the nascent First Brazilian Republic. You play as Pajeu, a warrior trying to save the soul of his mentor and grappling with whether to pursue a campaign of righteous destruction or more thoughtful justice. But make a decision quickly because every second counts. ... MORE(https://www.pocketgamer.com/hell-clock/out-now-on-android/)

Themed after the classic Pac-Man arcade game, you'll be pursued by four differently coloured cars based on the iconic ghostly enemies Blinky, Pinky, Inky and Clyde. Naturally, you'll need to outrun them before acquiring a power pellet and turning the tables to hunt them instead. ... MORE(https://www.pocketgamer.com/asphalt-legends-unite/pac-man-collaboration/)

Discounty lets you run and manage your own supermarket in a small town that may not welcome you

The topic of small towns versus big business is a contentious one. When does convenience trump community, and whatnot? Well, in Discounty you can answer just such a question, with a mixture of life-sim cosiness and surprisingly in-depth public relations simulation. Available to purchase now on iOS and Android, Discounty may see you welcomed by the townsfolk, or vilified instead! In Discounty, you're drafted by your aunt into running the local discount supermarket in the town of Blomkest. Your job? Simply to run the supermarket, stock the shelves, organise its products and ensure everything runs smoothly and successfully. Of course, that success may come at the cost of annoying a few townspeople, and if you tick off your customers too much, then they may just turn on you and your store... ...
