One of the great appeals of strategy is not just matching your wits against the computer, but also against your real-life friends. So it's no surprise that Battle Waves: Mobile, the solo-developed strategy game, is highlighting PvP as a major feature in its second season: Friends & Foes.

It introduces direct-friend PvP, allowing you to add and challenge your pals directly. Battle Waves is simple to learn but hard to master, so if you've been looking to get a friend into the wonders of strategy games, then it might well be worth getting them to take a look at this new update.

Foesome friends

But fret not! Because it isn't just the addition of friend lists that's making its mark on Battle Waves. There's also a new battle pass system that offers both free and premium reward tracks, as well as daily quests, which can offer up to triple the XP rewards to let you blaze through the battle pass faster.

There's also a host of other, smaller changes, such as allowing you to favourite your preferred arena for PvP, stackable hats to make your units look even more distinctive and new variants for collectible cards. All in all, it's a good reason to check back in or give Battle Waves a go if you haven't already.

Battle Waves is certainly introducing some ambitious features, especially for a solo-developed title. Our recent preview had Catherine quite intrigued by what it had to offer, so here's hoping that this latest update and new season are just a sampling of what we can expect from Battle Waves in the future!

The Convergence is a dark fantasy auto-battler that uses an isometric perspective

As we head towards midday, there's an interesting little iOS auto-battler that's just crossed my desk. That's a genre I've often expressed confusion about the appeal of in the past, but if there's one that can justify why people like it, I reckon that The Convergence, out now on iOS, may just be that! With its isometric perspective and dark fantasy world, it's easy to see that The Convergence may have taken some significant inspiration from the world of Diablo. In it, you equip your heroes and send them out, watching as they either succeed or fail based on your preparation. ... MORE(https://www.pocketgamer.com/the-convergence/out-now-on-ios/)

MoonDust: Cosmic Journey is an atmospheric sci-fi side-scroller with lush graphics

It's hard to really communicate the majesty and grandeur of outer space in gaming. I mean, there's only so many times you can stare in wonder at stars and nebulae before it all gets a bit samey. Fortunately, MoonDust: Cosmic Journey offers a truly visually attention-grabbing take on worlds of sci-fi and outer space! Available now on iOS, MoonDust is described by the developer as an atmospheric sci-fi exploration game. What that means is you'll have basic side-scrolling action in the foreground as you pilot your ship and avoid obstacles while collecting different elements, as in the background a gorgeous vista of strange alien worlds goes by. ...

Sally Face is the tale of one boy, his portable console, a prosthetic face and the horrors

The indie horror game is practically a genre unto itself. And with so many of them, there are equally ludicrous and disturbing premises for how the nightmare begins. But I think Sally Face is probably a standalone for its main character literally not having a face, and surprisingly, they're not the villain either! Sally Face sees you taking on the role of the titular character, a boy with a dark and troubled past, which is probably the best you can hope for, having to wear a prosthetic face after yours was destroyed. With the help of a portable gaming console that allows him to speak with the dead, Sal will have to solve a series of disturbing mysteries plaguing his home town with the help of his friends. ...
