    Google Play Games Review:

    So I like to play mobile games, I use Google Play, have an account whatever. I moved up to Silver (because I try the free games and don’t pay mtx, it took me a while from bronze to silver).

    Anyway, once a week (iirc) I get a prize and usually it’s just more points to push me up silver. But last month I actually won 3 free months of Google Play Pass! So I’ve been able to try the better games that I’d otherwise have to pay $5-$15 for.

    It’s actually amazing how far mobile gaming has come now that I can try the proper games!

    •Raspberry Mash is one of my favs so far, a little rogue-lite with a girl protag smashing demons in hell. Actually rad af, and indie too. 10/10, the story continues through the difficulties one unlocks, bigger than I thought!

    •Pocket City is fun as well, though it does make me want to buy Pocket City 2 which I will refrain from until I actually have disposable income. 7/10 as there are some QoL changes that ought to be made, that I am sure they have done in 2.

    •SPACE PLAN is like Cookie Clicker but with potatoes, and an amazing gripping story. 8/10 (bc it’s too short lol).

    •Game Dev Tycoon (I know I’m late to this one lol) works extremely well as a mobile game, and I’m hooked. 9/10.

    •Death Road to Canada is awesome, you make custom characters that randomly appear in a run, alongside NPC/premade characters, and you try to survive a 15 day roadtrip to Canada during a Zombie apocalypse. There’s weapons to equip when you get to a town to raid for supplies, and random events when you’re driving. Defo recommend. 9/10.

    That’s just my little review of Android gaming for now. There’s a few RPGs and rogue-lites/likes that I still want to try as well. So I’ll make sure to post again after I’ve worn these out haha

      Here’s me still just casually playing Jetpack Joyride when I have a few minutes to kill. I’ve played several games over the years, but if I have enough time for a real gaming session, I’ll fire up the computer.
