PG's top moments of the week - Pokemon previewed...
|

Every week, Pocket Gamer provides a weekly digest of the most important and popular stories from these digital pages.

Surprise surprise, it's been another big week for new mobile games.

There was splishy-splashy Agents of Storm, PikPok screen-flicker Rival Stars Basketball, weirdy beardy Felllice, Napoleonic strategy game Penisular, tactics epic Battle Academy 2, and same-screen party game Micro Battles.

Plus, kids quiz Pokemon Camp, maze game MMM Fingers, hockey 'em up NHL 2K, puzzling roguelike Puzzle to the Center of the Earth, and the disappointing Tilt to Live: Gauntlet's Revenge.

RETRY

And there was FrozenByte's Splot, and Rovio's RETRY, twisty tower defence game Sleep Attack and game book Caverns of the Snow Witch.

Not to mention Swap Heroes, Miika, and Agarest War Zero.

Plus, Android players can now try older iOS games like Deep Loot, GunFinger, Galaxy on Fire - Alliances, Republique, Pako, and Pixel People.

Good job we picked out the best few in our lists of the three best games on Android and iOS.

Smarter Than You

Elsewhere, we looked at how the iPad Air 2's extra memory makes a big difference for gamers, asked Luca Redwood if gamers actually did spend money to benefit other players in Smarter Than You, and reviewed Minecraft on Vita.

We choose the best gamebooks on iOS and Android, and played SimCity BuildIt. Has EA released a full SimCity game on mobile, or another free to play monstrosity? Guess!

And we found a nifty new feature in OS X Yosemite that lets you record footage from an iOS game, without an expensive capture card rig. Do it yourself with this handy guide.

We also went hands on with Pokemon Omega Ruby and rounded up all the new Mega Evolutions that are coming to the game.

Phew! See you next week.

Around Steel Media

This week, 148Apps, wrote reviews of Puzzle to the Center of the Earth and Angry Birds Transformers, and gave Editor’s Choice Awards to The Silent Age Episode 2 and Zero Age. See what all of the fuss is about.
