The only crime I see is grandpa robbing the cradle.
We’ve entered into an early spring doldrums both here at Pocket Tactics and on the App Store. Seriously, somebody wake me up when we sight land.
Nothing of huge interest this week. I was hoping to have Boss Monster to share, but Brotherwise Games posted this morning that there was a flaw with the game that they had to fix and they had to resubmit. Earliest estimates are 2-3 days, but the way things are going we might not see Boss Monster until July. If you have an Android tablet and can’t wait, it’s free to download right now on Google Play.
So, that leaves us with a few games that, I’ll be honest, aren’t going to blow your socks off. The first is The Trace, which actually released this morning and is currently out for iOS Universal. The Trace is a murder mystery with 3D environments to explore, clues to find, puzzles to solve. You know, mystery stuff. Trailer is after the break, and you can it up now for $5 on the App Store.
More fun after the break.
From murder and mayhem we move to some lighter fare. The first is 64 Bits which has the aesthetic of Pong and the jumpy, twitchy nature of a meth addict. I don’t know what to make of it, other than it looks really hard and like it might be fun, especially if you’ve been diagnosed with ADHD. It’s already available for Android and will be out for iOS Universal tonight. It’s free to download, so it might be worth a look.
Our last stop is anything but a twitchy, jumpy game. It’s called Breath of Light and it’s a puzzler with a peaceful, relaxing demeanor. Flowers radiate some magic aura or some such crap, and you have to move stones to direct the aura to other flowers to make them bloom. Yeah, I almost threw up a bit, too. Still, it looks pretty cool, so there’s that. It will run $2-3 and will be for iOS Universal. If you want to give it a go, look for it on the App Store at midnight.
Sure I’m missing something. Let me know what else is out there in the comments.
