Gameloft has released a full version of Starfront: Collision on iPhone, after some fans bemoaned the publisher’s new freemium policy.
From the visual extravaganzas that make my PC’s graphics card keel over wheezing for air to games that are mostly played via spreadsheets, from games with simple mechanics involving no more information than what is immediately available to those with long lists of arcane stats spread across myriad menus and submenus and sub-submenus, from the simplest tower defense titles to ferociously complex and intricate games that threaten to make the uninitiated user’s head explode in a Scanners-esque fountain of blood and offal, strategy games come in countless forms. This list is intended to focus on games that lean towards the latter end of at least one of those spectra – the complex, the detailed, the rewarding but plain-looking. Some still have more widespread mass appeal, some don’t, but if you’re a hardcore fan of strategy or management sim games looking for something to play on Android they’re worth at least a look.
Brash Games writes "The mobile games industry is a hugely profitable one these days, and with iOS (iPhone, iPod Touch and iPad) leading the way it’s about time I gave you my ten favourite iOS games of 2011, here they are".
Outstanding list. And I'm always happy to see Jetpack Joyride get some love. Its a freakin' masterpiece.
Pocket Gamer: If Nintendo had £1 for every game that tried to copy The Legend of Zelda, it would probably be around £15 better off.
Still, anyone who has ever so much as read the back of a Zelda game box will get a sense of deja vu as the story of Sacred Odyssey gets going. It stars an unlikely hero rising to save the world for a beautiful princess, and contains swords, horse riding, and puzzly dungeons.
