Hardcore Droid:
"Ever since I started playing Crystal Story, I’ve been searching for the right way to describe how intensely addicting it is. I’m sure you’ve already seen the headlines—“Woman Loses Job, Spouse, That Little Sparkle of Life in her Eyes from Addiction to Mobile Phone App”—so I’ll skip ahead to the part where I end up desperate and homeless, offering Crystal Story tips for some spare change and running an Indiegogo campaign called, “Recovering Crystal Addict: Please help me raise funds for a new job, spouse, and that little sparkle of life in my eyes.” But you know what? It was worth it. Crystal Story may not stray far from the traditional turn-based RPG formula, but it knows how to get you hooked—and keep you coming back for more."
If you looking for a great Android RPG, we offer you the following lists of the the best Android RPGs You Never Heard Of.
I'm not big on phone games, but Lone Wolf and Atom RPG are great games and work well on a phone.
That said, it blows my mind they didn't include at least one Dragon Quest/Warrior or Final Fantasy game.
They have a great port for FF Tactics: War of the Lions damn it. Show it some love.
Indie games in Android land wax rather indie. I am going to tell you now that somewhere below the Android indie cellar is a sub-cellar wherein dwell solo devs and two-man teams—sub-basement Android indies. The freakish step-child of the gaming industry. But, as is true with any cadre of social misfits, some rather compelling stuff occasionally pokes its woolly head out of this outsider morass. If you’re looking to play rich, compelling RPGs on your phone, there is within said midden heap a small cache of absolute gems, which is, of course, what our list is all about. Beyond shining a spotlight on said hidden treasure, however, the criteria for the “You Never Heard Of” lists is the absolute best Android indie RPGs with less than 10K downloads. To be sure, the following indie RPGs did not receive the love they deserve, though, of course, our latest edition of the Ten Best Android RPGs You Never Heard of is, at the end of the day, for you.
For many, the premise behind a list of the best Android RPGs amounts to a contradiction in terms. Most of us who work and play in the mobile gaming sphere do in fact understand that our platform of choice is the red-haired stepchild of the gaming industry. Believe it or not, if you dig down a level deeper into the sub-cellar of small one, two-man indie dev teams, you have a subgenre that is the village idiot of the gaming industry. Thing is, as with the best social misfits, some genuinely compelling stuff has reared its wholly head out of the depths of gaming’s social underbelly.
