40 Best New Android Games From The Last 3 Weeks (12/25/12 - 1/15/13)




Posted by Saurabh Chavan








Sand Slides (Puzzle Game)

Here's a unique idea: the only point in this game is to get the correct sand into the correct bottle. To that end, you draw guides in the space between to guide the different colors of sand along their path. Simple, right? Things get complicated when new sand pops up every few seconds, and you've got to hold or defer the flow in order to complete the level.
--
In this unique puzzle game you must guide the sand into the right coloured chutes, by drawing slides and buckets with your finger, but watch out. You will need to pick up the pace in order to keep on top of the action. With simple game play rules, Sand Slides is a very unique addictive puzzle game that is simple to pick up but will take some time to master.

Revenge of the Rob-O-Bot

There's not a lot to say about pinball games - keep the balls on the table and you're doing well. Even so, Revenge of the Rob-O-Bot looks like an exceptional (and appropriate) entry for Android, with a full 3D table and special attention paid to physics. The Flash Gordon-inspired theme, with some really fantastic element art, doesn't hurt.
--
Classic pinball at its best; fantastic physics, great sound and fast gameplay. Revenge of the Rob-O-Bot is classic pinball at its best; with fantastic physical feel, great sound and realistic gameplay. And a bit rugged and worn from its years of use in the arcades, as it should be. The Intergalactical Rob-O-Bot has invaded Femtopia and is laying waste to this once peaceful city of the future. No-one knows why or where he comes from. It’s not important. Just help Bazooka Commandrix Betty to save the metropolis from destruction. ...But beware, the Rob-O-Bot is programmed for REVENGE.

Crazy Vampires Lite

You're a benevolent lord of the underworld who sees the children of the night safely to their crypts by means of a series of turning block puzzles, guiding them away from light.

Dead City

You didn't think we'd get through this roundup without at least one zombie game, did you? Dead City is a standard dual-stick shooter with the addition of vehicle sections, where it isn't a drive if you're not picking bits of undead spleen out of your grille at the end. The art style is a bit grim for the current happy-go-lucky trend in zombie games, though.
--

Draw Wars

Real Time Strategy is getting a lot of attention on mobile, but there's no denying that the mouse and keyboard interface needs a little bit of tweaking for touchscreens. Draw Wars is up to that challenge, with a gesture-based command system replacing the old PC standard. The game itself mixes in a hearty dose of tower defense for good measure.
--

Take advantage of military buildings - towers, bunkers and rocket launchers to defend your base. Unique gameplay where real-time strategy meets tower defense and puzzle game.

Bacteria™ Arcade Edition

If Asteroids and Fantastic Voyage had a baby, it would be Bacteria. You're in control of a tiny ship assigned to protect a cluster of nerves from invading bacteria, with thruster and laser controls mirroring the classic arcade game. This title might take "classic" a bit too literally, in fact - the booming, scratchy bad guy voice at the beginning of every stage gets on your nerves in an otherwise solid shooter.
--
This is a strangely addictive game retro classic-style arcade game for one or two players. It has freaky style classical music - be prepared to have it's tune fixed inside your head. This game starts off slowly, but by wave 4 the game is frantic, loads going on, bullets everywhere. Inspired by multiple classic arcade games, the basic idea is to stop multiple waves of enemy bacteria from snatching away your last few remaining cells that are located in the center of the screen. However, there are also some bacteria who are intent on destroying you - so you must destroy them first. If you succeed in lasting 60 seconds then you will be rewarded with a further cell to protect on the next wave, and so on...

Duncan and Katy

Duncan and Katy looks like something you'd find in an N64 bargain bin... in a good way. The colorful environments and simple gameplay combine elements of Zelda and other action RPGs, with a dual hero system that should add some nice variety. The only thing that looks off is a the snail's pace of both the player characters and the enemies.

  • 15 primary weapons.

All wrapped up in a conspiracy theory story that's... well, it's pretty ridiculous, but at least it's there.

LEGO® City Fire Hose Frenzy

There's an attraction to games about civil service, maybe because there are only so many drug dealers you can shoot in Grand Theft Auto. And this one certainly fits the bill: who wouldn't want to be a handsome, grizzled firefighter? And by handsome, I mean square and yellow. There doesn't seem to be a lot of LEGO in LEGO City Fire Hose Frenzy, but then it's probably not aimed at you or me... who might prefer to play with actual LEGOs instead.
--
There’s a fire in LEGO City. Help the fireman and his trusty firedog put out the fires across LEGO City by climbing the fire truck ladder and using the fire hose. Use the fire hose to put out all of the fires in every level. Some fires will be harder to reach than others. Fires over a larger area will need you to control the helicopter. The biggest fires will need you to take charge of the Fire Truck. You will need to raise the ladder up and down and aim the hose.
