Shooty Skies - New Flying Game From Developers of Crossy Road

From two of three of the developers that brought you Crossy Road, comes a new game to become your next addiction; Shooty Skies - Endless Arcade Flyer By Mighty Games. 

Shooty Skies shares a lot of similarities to Crossy Road in terms of game graphics, set up, and amount of collectable / playable characters. 

Shooty Skies is a endless flying game where you control a character and plane, shooting down enemies. The game features a heap of characters to unlock from the prize machine. Wacky enemies like; flying arcade machines, laptops, robots, owls, a big mouth, video of a cat on a computer screen, and a lot more.

You control your character by dragging around your finger on the screen, with an auto fire attacking the enemies. There is also temporary (2 hour) weapon upgrades that you can gain by watching an advertisement. 

Like with most flyer games, the hardest part of Shooty Skies is dodging all the projectiles. 

Shooty Skies is free to download and play (with in-app purchases available) for iOS devices.

Pokémon Shuffle Mobile - Match 'Em All Game Coming to iOS & Android

Pokémon is set to release a match-3 style puzzle game, like Candy Crush Saga, Candy Mania, Bejeweled, Angry Birds Fight!, and so on... for iOS and Android devices, sometime later this year (2015).

In Pokémon Shuffle Mobile, players will clear areas and battle wild Pokémon by matching up Pokémon of the same to create attacks, which you use to battle and defeat the Pokémon, before you run out of moves. You can then try and catch it!

Game features as stated in the trailer (video above):

"Match 3 or more Pokémon to launch an attack."
"Rack up combos to deal lots of damage."
"Catch wild Pokémon and add them to your collection."
"Create your own team and gain experience as you play!"
"Use items and Mega Evolution for powerful effects."  

There does seem to be a mixed range of Pokémon between new and old, judging from the trailer. It will feature the old favorites like; Charmander, Squirtle, Bulbasaur, and of course Pikachu. Also, Pokémon will gain experience and can evolve.

Pokémon Shuffle Mobile will be FREE to download, most likely with in-app purchases - available on the iTunes App Store and Google Play Store - sometime this year.

Gold RPM Ranger - Flying Ability - Power Rangers Dash - iOS / Android Game Tip

In the iOS and Android game, Power Rangers Dash, the Gold RPM Ranger (a.k.a. Operator Gold) has the special ability of 'Flying'! Cool, right?! Well, if you can't quite figure out why you can't get your Ranger to fly - it's because he doesn't actually fly - he actually glides down, slowly to the ground. Kind of misleading, but anyway - here's how to 'glide' with RPM Gold:

To glide with RPM Gold, simply tap the 'Jump' button 2 times and then a 3rd time - but on the 3rd, hold the button down. When you release the 'Jump' button or press 'Attack' - your team will fall back to the ground.

Power Rangers Dash is available on iOS and Android devices, as a FREE download, with in-app purchases available. Read a previous view of the Power Rangers Dash game, here.

Power Rangers Dash - Level Up B-Grade To A-Grade Ranger - iOS / Android Game Tip

Wondering if it's possible to level-up a B-Grade Ranger to and A-Grade Ranger in iOS and Android game, Power Rangers Dash? Yes! You can. As you may or may not know - if you upgrade a C-Grade Power Ranger to Level 10, they'll become a B-Grade Ranger. It's a little different to become a A-Grade.

To upgrade a B-Grade to A-Grade Ranger, you'll need to upgrade your Ranger to Level 15 (the max level for a B-grade). Then you have the option to "Grade Up". Grading your Ranger up will cost you 10 G-Coins. Then, your new A-Grade Power Ranger will become a Level 0. Leveling up to Level 1 may downgrade your Rangers DMG and/or the SPD stats.    

Power Rangers Dash is available on iOS and Android devices, as a FREE download, with in-app purchases available. Read a previous view of the Power Rangers Dash game, here.

Angry Birds Fight! - Pirates, Matching & Battling Action - iOS Game Review

The latest game in the Angry Birds series, Angry Birds Fight! - is a match-3 game, with bird-fighting action, whacky accessories items, set on the seas traveling to the uncharted islands!

The matching part of the game is similar to other popular games like; Candy Crush, Bejeweled, ect... where you match up 3 or more items of the same in a row - but this being Angry Birds, this game has a twist. Matching up the birds actually powers-up your shield and attack - which you use to battle your Angry Bird with other real opponents from around the world. 

Angry Birds Fight! features a bit of a pirate theme, as explore the uncharted islands with your birds on a boat. Collect and attach different items to your boat to make it stronger - which will come in handy when battling the pigs! 

Fight! is structured into different stages (islands), and levels, each with many battles required and Pig battle challenges to win.

The game features; Red Bird, Chuck (Yellow bird), the Bomb bird, Stella (who can be purchased using Gems or by 'helping out' your Facebook friends), The Blues, and Matilda.   

The Birds can be unlocked via different methods, and can be leveled up with experience and made more powerful by attaching accessories - which can also be leveled up.

Other than battling other people, there are also 'Boss' battles - where you face off against a Pig and his ship/boat. 

My dislikes include: when the game matches you against someone who is 5 or more levels higher than you (even though they are not impossible to beat). The lack of ability to easily gain more accessory items for your birds. And the lack of coins, which you only gain when battling a Pig and his boat or from selling an item. 

I have to say, this is the first Angry Birds game since Angry Birds Go! That I've actually enjoyed playing. If you like the Angry Bird characters, action / fighting, and those candy / jewel matching games - Angry Birds Fight! Is the perfect blend. I recommend you check it out. 

Angry Birds Fight! Is free to download, with in-app purchases available, for iPhone and iPad. Download it now from the App Store.

The Best Flappy Bird Replacement - Splashy Fish

Disappointed that Flappy Bird is gone from the App Store? If you didn't download the game or deleted it and are having withdraws, try the next best clone - Splashy Fish - The Adventure of a Flappy Tiny Bird Fish By Massimo Guareschi.

Just like Flappy Bird, but swimming, instead of flying. You must continually tap the screen in just the right amount to dodge your way past columns.

The game is just as annoying and impossible as Flappy Bird was. Also as more incentive to download Splashy Fish - The game features 5 trophies to unlock, which will make your fish even cooler:

- Golden Wing  at 10 pts
- King of the Ocean Crown at 20 pts
- Shining Beak at 30 pts
- Dark Knight Suite at 40 pts
- Rockstar Glasses at 50 pts


Splashy Fish is FREE and available for iOS (iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch).

Currently Free: 'Power Rangers Legends' for iPhone & iPad

The Power Rangers are still going strong, and kicking the butt of evil space alien villains, while learning to work together as a team. The newest series, Power Rangers Super Megaforce, will begin in the USA on February 15th 2014 on Nickelodeon.

To get into the fighting spirit, why not download an app for free? From February 6th, the Power Rangers Legends (by Saban Brands LLC) game for iOS has gone free! (saving of $0.99).

The Legends game starts right back at the beginning, with the original Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers. You can play as the Green, Pink and unlock the Red Mighty Morphin' Ranger.

Power Rangers Legends features power-ups, weapons, boosts, different gear... that can be bought in the 'store'. And as the the game doesn't really pay out well and they aren't shy about offering you some in-app purchases to get some extra coins, powers and so on. Not a great thing for a supposably kids game.

And this game is not that easy, and can actually be quite hard... Not a great game for the easily frustrated.

The graphics are pretty good, 3D (not the glasses kind), Rangers sounds aren't accurate and are not from the show.

I wish I could say it's a fun, awesome game, but its not. It's too difficult for a kids game. With too many easily available in-app purchases.

But, hey, the game is currently free! So for the retro fans out there, download the game - it's fun for a little nostalgia.

And for fun, here is the original Green Ranger himself, "Tommy", playing the game on a iPhone. Also, if you're a fan of the show - go check out and like, Jason David Frank's Facebook page!





Power Rangers Legends

Available for: iOS (universal).

Price: $0.99, Currently Free (as of Feb 6th 2014).
