New Android games you must play in July 2015


BY: Michael Antonio
We present you with the July 2015 edition of our monthly round-up of the best new Android games. This month, we have a fantastic new football game, a deadly outing for Hitman 47 and more. Further down, we've included games released in previous months, in case you missed them the first time around.

July 2015

 

Hitman: Sniper

The legendary anti-hero, Hitman 47, makes his second appearance on Android. This time, 47 features in a Gun Gallery sniping game reminiscent of the Hitman Sniper Challenge that came out on consoles a few years ago. Set in Montenegro, Sniper assigns you to kill targets across 150 missions. You can either shoot targets directly, or imaginatively use the environment to make them look like accidents. As you carry out the satisfyingly violent hits, you unlock weapon parts and blueprints to improve your arsenal.

Siegefall

No Android games list would be complete without a few Gameloft entries, and Siegefall is the latest strategy game from the prolific Android developer. Build up a fantasy army and take on millions of other players as you seek to make your kingdom supreme. You also need to build up your defences using traps, barricades and towers, because other players want to take you out as much as you do them. Siegefall may be yet another build-and-destroy game, but it's a very good one.

Chaos Rings III

Easily the greatest RPG saga designed specifically for smartphones and tablets, the latest entry in Square Enix's fantasy JRPG series makes some big changes in the interface and graphics departments. It's a lot more vibrant and colorful than previous games in the series, and sees you forming a party of teenage heroes to head out into the world and hunt imaginatively-designed monsters. It's one of the deepest, most rewarding, and most expensive games on Android, demonstrating that the mobile platform is capable of more long-term 'hardcore' gaming.

Does not Commute

Every now and then, a game comes along to the Play Store that just screams for smartphones to be taken seriously as a gaming platform. The offbeat and beautiful driving game Does not Commute is such a game. You drive various cars on missions around a 70s (meets futuristic) town, interacting with the town’s strange residents. You’ll control bikes, hot dog vans and speedboats as your initially relaxing missions descend into vehicular chaos.

Adventures of Poco Eco

Artsy and musical, Adventures of Poco Eco is a charming 3D(ish) platformer in which you control the titular Poco in his quest to recover their lost ‘Sounds’. It looks and sounds amazing, and buying the game for 1.99 USD also gives you access to the LP from its music producer Iamyank. While the puzzles aren’t too complex, it’s a perfect, relaxing game to wind down with after a hard day’s work.

Lara Croft: Relic Run

Mere weeks after the original Tomb Raider was released in the Play Store, Square Enix have gone and put Lara Croft in a game that’s probably much more accessible to the average smartphone gamer. Relic Run is, simply put, Temple Run starring Lara Croft. The game looks fantastic, complimenting the twitchy-fast endless-running gameplay that works so well on handheld devices. It’s not just a matter of ducking, jumping, and parkouring either, as you’ll encounter classic bosses and even ride the occasional vehicle.

Football Manager Classic 2015

SI Games has listened to the tablet owners crying out for a full, deep version of the world’s most popular football management sim. Unlike Football Manager Handheld, this isn’t some quick-fix game you can play during a toilet break, but a true replication of the PC version - with a 3D match engine, proper transfer system, and all the other micromanagement you’d expect from Football Manager. Finally, the management sim Android has been waiting for. Download it here.

Mortal Kombat X

Dismemberment, beheadings and bone-breaking. These are just some of the lovely things you’ll be doing in the Android version of the latest super-gory fighting game in the legendary franchise. ‘X’ features several new characters, as well as old favorites Scorpion, Johnny Cage, Sonya, Sub-Zero et al. The game is adapted for Android, so the gameplay is largely about timing your swipes to execute complex combos and, of course, fatalities. Some may be put off by the ultra-violence, but others will find it bloody brilliant (we went there!).

DomiNations

if you prefer to be a bit more real-time with your strategy, then DomiNations could be for you. From Brian Reynolds (Civilization II, Rise of Nations) comes this rich, beautiful and intense game that proves mobile devices can successfully do deep strategy. Take your nation from the stone age to the space age, form alliances, recruit legendary generals, and go to war across all time. You can play open-ended single-player campaigns, or take part in legendary historical ones such as the Fertile Crescent and the Peloponnesian War.

Attack the Light

Cartoon Network brings us a unique RPG based on the Steven Universe cartoon. It's visual style is completely faithful to the source material, but you don't have to be a fan of the cartoon to enjoy this game. Control Steven, Garnet, Pearl and Amethyst and take them on a quest to stop a destructive Gem weapon. It's extremely accessible, and its turn-based combat has enough depth that you'll have trouble putting this one down. Colorful, funny, and beautifully-designed for the touchscreen.

Table Tennis Touch

Table tennis games on touchscreens aren't really a novelty anymore, and don't make as much of an impression now as they did when the first iPhone came out, but Table Tennis Touch gives the genre a welcome overhaul. Get trained up by Wiff Waff the robot, then jump into career mode, quick game mode, or one of 12 mini games as you seek to become a ping pong master. This game is exclusive to Android Lollipop, and its variety of environments - from school halls to garages - look absolutely stunning. The super-spinny gameplay is fast, responsive, and perfectly suited to your Android touchscreen.

Tomb Raider I

One of the most iconic and influential PC games of all time comes somersaulting onto your Android device. Sure, the original Tomb Raider feels dated and rickety by today's standards, but at the very reasonable price of 99 cents, it's worth it for sheer nostalgic and sentimental value alone. The controls are as good as they could be for an old 3D game on a touchscreen (i.e. mediocre), but we love the crispy high-res visuals so you can really appreciate the fully blocky glory of this all-time classic. Check this out if you want a piece of videogame history in the palm of your hand.

Five Nights at Freddy’s 3

The third entry in the cheap shocks, jump-scare phenomenon has arrived - appearing suddenly and violently in the Play Store like, say, a horrifically stitched-together toy rabbit. The vague story is that Freddy Fazbear's Pizza has now been replaced with a theme park ride called Fazbear's Fright. It's your job as the security guard to monitor the cameras, lighting and security doors at Fazbear's, and keep an eye out for strange activity - in this case, the movements of a haggard old mascot called Springtrap. If you don't watch carefully, he appears in the security room and scares the living hell out of you - making for the most suspenseful experience on Android.

Gunner Z

If Five Nights at Freddy's left you feeling helpless and having nightmares that your childhood toy collection was trying to kill you, then Gunner Z is the way to feel empowered again. Control a fleet of heavily-armored, big-gunned assault trucks, and mow down hundreds of zombies in an overrun city. The game has a great-looking 'night vision' style, giving everything ghostly look, and the mind-controlled zombies even wield weapons against you - so it's definitely no cakewalk.

Active Soccer 2

Remember what football games were like before Fifa came along and take everything over? Probably not, but if you're curious, then the speedy, birds-eye-view gameplay of Active Soccer 2 will give you a good idea. Where the 3D graphics of FIFA always felt a bit cumbersome on smartphone screens, Active Soccer 2 is tough to master but feels like it belongs on handheld devices. You can enter competitions, create your own competitions, and have cross-platform online matches to show your iPhone-owning mates who's boss.

Motorsport Manager

If you want to take a more cerebral role in a sports game, then give this addictive Formula 1 simulator a go. In this deceptively deep game, you control a racing team - hiring drivers, engineering your cars and even working out the best pitstop strategies. You experience all the ups and downs of F1, including watching the actual races (or simulating them if you like), dealing with crashes, and working your team to the top of the F1 world. An absolute must for F1 and sports sim fans.
