For much of the UK, June was a grim and dismal month, characterised by rain punctuated by odd spells of short-lived sunshine. So, for gamers, conditions were perfect for a period packed with cracking Android releases and crystal clear handheld displays, unsullied by annoying reflective screen issues. The standout release, which hit the Android Market on July 1st but was available free via GetJar beforehand (creating a nice little loophole for us to sneak it into this list), was the long-awaited iOS port of Cut the Rope. Fortunately, to keep thumbs busy during the month-long build-up to release, there were still plenty of first rate titles to play throughout June. So stick around for last month’s highest scoring Pocket Gamer hits, and let us know if any other gems slipped through our quality control net in the comments below. Handing a well-deserved Gold Award to the mobile gaming phenomenon, we said Read More

Kairosoft ongoing story of fabulous simulation games races on. You’ve no doubt heard of Kairsoft’s other games in which you attempt to raise an empire with the help of a series of menus and expressive pixel art. It doesn’t sound like much, but it’s unhealthily addictive and to cut right to the chase, Grand Prix Story really is no different. Instead of running a game development company or a spa you’re now instead charged with starting your own racing team, you’ll hire drivers, build and research cars and deal with contracts. The style of gameplay has a lot more in common with Game Dev Story than the more recent Hot Springs Story in that you’re not placing things in the main game window and you are instead back to controlling purely from the menus. The added attraction to Grand Prix Story is of course the races where you’ll see your team race against several Read More

came as a pleasant surprise to Kairosoft fans. Who would have expected a management game that put you in charge of a spa to be so enthralling? On the one hand, it was as addictive as the studio’s smartphone debut, . On the other hand, the subject matter was unashamedly Japanese, at the risk of alienating some Western fans. Which is presumably why Kairosoft chose the international sport of Formula 1 racing as the basis for its latest business management sim. Prix heat Advertisement The development of your mean machine naturally comes first, with the choice of car you can build at the outset limited, to say the least. Each of the racing vehicles up for selection - roadsters (balanced and durable); buggies (good handling); and dragsters (speedy but bad at corners) - can be improved, though, with parts that increase its stats or compensate for its flaws. However, these components need Read More

Sometimes I decide what to mention in the Freshies and sometimes the people want what the people want. In today’s list, Color Flashlight HD, Grand Prix Story, and Alberi are all top-rated although they’ve only been available a few days at the most. I tried to ignore this app, but the crazy horde of fans wouldn’t let me. Who needs another flashlight app? Apparently, over ten thousand Android device owners, most of who rate this utility app very highly. The reason – it isn’t an ordinary flashlight app. You can shine your phone’s flash or the screen itself as the light source. It features pulsing lights, changing colors, adding text and sound and a huge variety of other options so that you can use it to find your way in a theater, search for your lost dog in the dark, or signal the rescuers in a real emergency. It’s free. Get Read More
