New Android Games Released This Week: Downwell, Mythgard and More

Every
week for as long as I can remember, we at Droid Gamers have looked back across
the week and written about any new releases. The headline may have changed, but
the content is still as unique as ever.

SimpleRockets 2

Every now
and again, I am genuinely surprised by what a mobile game has to offer. This
week, SimpleRocket 2 allows you to build space stations, rockets and even lunar
rovers to explore the wealth of planets lurking in your solar system. A game
like this may not appeal to everyone, but I can assure anyone who plays
SimpleRockets 2 will enjoy the time they spend designing and building rockets.

Mythgard

Mythgard
is a CCG that caught my eye for several reasons. There are over 400 cards to
collect, all of which can be earned through playing the game. They set
Mythgard in the present but features mythical creatures like dragons,
valkyrie and lava trolls. If you haven’t tried many CCGs, then it looks
like Mythgard is a fantastic place to start. Also, if you are a big fan of
CCGs, then Mythgard is one you shouldn’t miss out on.

Downwell

Downwell
is an excellent roguelike developed by Devolver Digital. This is not Downwell’s
first appearance onto the Play Store, but I included it onto the weekly list
for a good reason. Because they listed Downwell as a new game, it was
ineligible for old players to re-download the game without purchasing. So
Devolver took the hit and allow anyone to download Downwell for free between
the 20th and 27th of September.

RPG Ambition Record

KEMCO is
a developer that needs no introduction, but their latest RPG might. Ambition
Record tells the story of Rafael, who is commanded by his king to squash a
rebellion forming to the north. The north is ruled by an evil Count who has
used forbidden magic to rise in power and challenge for the king’s throne.
RPG Ambition Record has a unique job system that allows you to give your
character’s different skills, weapons and play styles.

Saint Seiya Awakening: Knights of the Zodiac

Saint
Seiya is an old-school Japanese manga series, retold in the form of a mobile
game. This means all the characters from the original series are available to
collect, and you’ll even get to relive legendary fight scenes but with you in
control this time. What makes Knights of the Zodiac different from similar
RPG’s is the combat system allows certain sync pairs. These pairs of bronzes
can take down a gold card, meaning it’s not about having the best cards, it’s
about using them effectively.

Concealo

Concealo
is not actually in a full release, but you can grab a copy from the Google Play
store right now. Gameplay for Concealo is best described at the lovechild of
Chess and Checkers, with some added creative flair. They hide the enemies
pieces until the start of the go. Meaning players who are good at
predicting the future and adapting quickly to your opponent’s moves will find
Concealo enjoyable and challenging.
